KIMBER TACTICAL ULTRA II

Design and Ergonomics

The 3-inch bushingless bull barrel and full-length guide rod create a short, stiff system that improves downrange consistency. The KimPro II aluminum frame reduces weight while the matte black blued slide adds durability. Custom aftermarket grips increase purchase and comfort; specify material (G10, Micarta, etc.) at sale. A 30 lines-per-inch front strap checkering and under-trigger-guard checkering enhance control for fast follow-up shots.

Performance and Controls

Caliber and Capacity

Chambered in .45 ACP, the Tactical Ultra II delivers proven stopping power in a 7+1 capacity with one 7-round magazine and bumper pad included. The platform balances recoil management with a matched 18 lb recoil spring for reliable cycling.

Sights, Trigger, and Safeties

Fixed tritium 3-dot night sights provide low-light target acquisition. The premium aluminum trigger offers a crisp ~4–5 lb pull, while ambidextrous thumb safety and extended beavertail grip safety promote secure handling under stress. An extended magazine well expedites reloads during drills or duty use.
