The Kimber Ultra Carry II delivers full-size .45 ACP performance in a compact 3-inch barrel platform designed for concealed carry applications. This stainless steel pistol combines Kimber's match-grade accuracy with reduced dimensions for everyday carry without sacrificing stopping power.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard compact pistols that compromise on trigger quality, the Ultra Carry II features Kimber's factory-tuned trigger system with a crisp 4-5 pound pull weight. The stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel frames, while the aluminum trigger maintains consistent performance across temperature variations. Match-grade barrel tolerances deliver sub-2-inch groups at 25 yards, exceeding typical compact pistol accuracy standards.
