Kimber Ultra CDP II

About 2 weeks ago I got an earily Christmas gift from my wife.

She just had foot surgery as some of you know and for my efforts to take care of her as well as a Christmas gift I got this.

Very nice piece.

So Kimber has gone to an external extractor as well?

Nice photography, too!

Nice!!
 
Great gun!

I bought one about 5 years ago. Being an older model it has no firing pin safety and came with the internal extractor. It has been a great carry gun. Light, compact, very accurate, and a .45. I uses a Wilson 7 round magazine in it and it runs great.

Happy shooting!

Joe,

Beautiful piece.

I like the silver, black, and wood combo.

nice photos Joe. Great gun!

I have the sister to it. My Pro CDP II is my current CCW. I also recommend Wilson mags. Make sure you have the molded followers in whatever mags you use. The metal lip on the standard Kimber and the chip mccormick's has been reported to dig into the Kimber's with alum. lowers.

You owe your wife big for this. I suggest buying her a new holster for that CDP II and four or five wilson 7 rounders for christmas. :D

I've noticed alot of companies are going that route nowadays, I wonder why?

I got a little lucky this time (the sun was out).

I have never had good luck with Wilson Combat Mags. I'm also the only guy I know who has problems with them. So I use either Kimbers or Chip McCormick Power Mags.

In this gun I'm running Kimber 7 rounders

I think so too, I will post more when I get a set of Gunner grips on it.

Thank you.

Its a great gun and runs like a champ even with Hydro-shok ammo. Its light weight and very comfortable to carry. The only slight problem I'm having is because it is so light that when I'm shooting double taps I need to white knuckle grip it so it doesn't jump out of my hand after the second shot.

Guess I'll need to go see the Team Sergeant for some shooting tips.

You thought about holster options yet? :munchin

Smokin Joe 12-05-2004 21:05

Currently I'm using a Wilderness belt slider. I'm going to check out sidearmor this week (I just found out they are in my town).

I'm also thinking about Galco because I like the idea of a thumb break for some weapon retention incase I get in a fight and lethal force is not justified. I don't want to scrap with someone and have my gun fall out.
