About Tactical II Family:

Tactical pistols are loaded with Kimber Custom Shop features that make them ideal for carry or defense as well as law enforcement use. Designed for comfortable carry over long periods of time, lightweight aluminum frames dramatically reduce overall weight without compromising performance or dependability. A full-size Tactical weighs seven ounces less than a comparable pistol with a steel or stainless steel frame.

A virtual necessity for a carry or duty pistol, low profile fixed three dot (green) night sights are mounted in dovetails machined into the slide for durability. Tritium inserts make sure that if you can see your target, you can see your sights. Sight edges are also rounded and blended to keep them from snagging on clothing or holsters. To ensure a positive grip regardless of conditions, frontstraps as well as the bottom of the trigger guards have flawless 30 lines-per-inch checkering.

Another Custom Shop feature is the match grade Premium Aluminum Trigger set to break between four and five pounds. An extended ambidextrous thumb safety, along with slightly extended magazine release button and slide release lever ensure fast and positive operation. Every Tactical features a matte black extended and beveled magazine well for fast and positive reloading. Magazines have an extended bumper pad for the same reason.

A matte black slide and contrasting gray anodized frame give each pistol a striking appearance. Black and silver laminated Kimber logo grips checkered in the classic double diamond pattern - along with black small parts - add the finishing touch.

Like all Kimber 1911 pistols, each Tactical has standard features unequaled by any other brand. Barrels and chambers are machined to match grade dimensions. Breech faces are polished for smooth feeding and ejection ports are lowered and flared for positive extraction and ejection. Edges are rounded and blended.

The Tactical Custom II is a full-size .45 ACP that weighs just 31 ounces. Ideal for duty carry, it has a 5-inch barrel that is fitted to a stainless steel match grade bushing for exceptional accuracy.

The Tactical Pro II has a full-length grip, but the 4-inch bull barrel is fitted directly to the slide without the aid of a bushing. This pistol is available in both .45 ACP and 9mm, and the 9mm version has a ramped barrel.

The Tactical Ultra II .45 ACP has a 3-inch bull barrel as well as the shorter grip common to other small Kimber pistols. Even then, a seven round flush-fitting magazine is standard. It is ideal for concealed carry or backup.

Made entirely in America in the Kimber factory, Tactical pistols are light, accurate and absolutely reliable. With one on your side, you are ready for anything.

About manufacturer:

Kimber builds the finest 1911 pistols in the world. A bold statement, maybe, but backed by the actions of the best law enforcement units, military forces and competition shooters. Legendary LAPD SWAT tested five major 1911 brands and chose Kimber. United States Marines assigned to Special Operations Command carry Kimber. The U.S.A. Shooting Team trains for rapid fire Olympic competition with Kimber.

On the strength of unequaled quality, Kimber sells more pistols into the growing 1911 market than any other manufacturer. Predictably, every year another gun company that specializes in something else trots out a 1911 with hopes of grabbing market share. While none of these pistols matches Kimber in quality or features - and many cost more - they do a great job of confusing things. Follow the lead of the experts. Don´t settle for anything less than the best. Trust your next shot to Kimber.

Every Kimber 1911 pistol is made in a state-of-the-art American factory from the finest raw materials and with manufacturing tolerances up to three times as tight as the competition. Over 200 inspections are performed during the manufacturing process by both people and specialized machines. When completed, every pistol must pass a comprehensive safety inspection that includes test firing to ensure all quality standards have been met. Unlike other manufacturers, Kimber does not purchase from 1911 parts houses. After all, the only way to do things right is to do them yourself.

Over the years, the Kimber 1911 line has grown to include 70 models in a wide variety of sizes and calibers. Some are intended for specific uses like concealed carry or competition, while others do just about everything. Some are more traditional 1911s and many are loaded with special features and built by hand in the Custom Shop.

Kimber 1911 pistols are topped with premium fixed, adjustable or night sights securely mounted in machined dovetails. Unequaled quality and dependability made Kimber number one. Others make claims, copy and compare - even want you to believe they make pistols in America. Let them take their best shot at number one. Just make sure you take your best shot with a Kimber.

Custom features like high ride beavertail grip safety, extended thumb safety and Commander-style hammer are part of every Kimber. The Ultra CDP II .45 ACP is short, light and absolutely dependable. It is the finest full-power concealed carry pistol available today.

Kimber 1911 barrels are carefully machined with match grade dimensions to ensure accuracy, and they are also one piece for superior strength. Barrel bushings on centerfires are also match grade, and all are machined from stainless steel blanks.

Chambers are cut to exacting match grade dimensions and then carefully finished for flawless feeding and extraction. Ejection ports are lowered and flared so ejecting brass clears easily. Everything is done inside the Kimber factory.

Kimber pistols have factory tuned match grade trigger groups that break crisp and clean. Slide and magazine releases are slightly extended for quick location and easy operation. Frame has a high kidney cut for best grip position.
