State Constable (5/5) | Oct 13, 2008 | Pat Sabo | Mercer pa US |
| I own 3 Kimber 45's...I carry a Pro carry blued for duty and off duty....had a few jams at the start....have fired over 3000 rounds through it now and it is 100% reliable.....put may life on it every day....most of my jams were not having a firm grip on the gun...my duty load is Winchester 230 SXT's...also shoots Hornady 230+p's very well | ||||

Love it (5/5) | Nov 3, 2008 | Jerry Cool | Sartell MN US |
| As an ex-cop and former Marine, I have a quite a bit of shooting experience. I took my Colt Series 70 .45 with a 5 inch barrel and my Kimber Ultra Carry II Stainless to the range. I have had no malfunctions with my Kimber during the break in period but at 25 feet my Kimber had a baseball size group which was better than I could due with my trusty old Colt. | ||||

Great gun (5/5) | Dec 30, 2008 | Anonymous | |
| This is the first Kimber I have owned. I could not believe how great this gun is. I shot 100 rounds through the gun today. I can't believe the accuracy of a gun this short. I was also impressed with how little the gun kicks. This was quite surprising. Great trigger as well. | ||||

Crimson Carry II (5/5) | Sep 7, 2009 | Jeff Holland | Bountiful UT US |
|
These short barreled guns MUST be gripped correctly... or FTE (Stovepipe) will occur... This may be the cause of the "six jams" in 250 rounds... muzzle flip must be controlled. I have a LEO friend who has carried his fore about five years... and had zero problems... he shoots a lot and he he is very good. I currently carry a Kimber Crimson II and I am happy with it... |

Update (5/5) | Sep 12, 2009 | marcus miller | St. Cloud MN US |

Back again. I inadvertently gave 3 stars last time, when I meant five. This is my third post. (read earlier posts) I am approaching 1500 rounds through this pistol. No further jams, stove-pipes, or FTF, FTE. I fired 230g ball until about 750 rounds fired. Since then have fired a mix of ball and JHP. No problems with the JHP's in probably 300 rounds fired. Like the 230g Speer Gold Dot, but have not found good ballistic data. (Seems to be the sh*t for snub .38) |

comflg (5/5) | Dec 7, 2009 | John Walz | Fort Myers FL US |
| I have just recieved my Ultra carry II I have shot just 200 rounds through it and have not had any miss fires or fail to eject problems. I have the crimson site on it could not be more pleased. This gun carries easy and is easy to conceal. It takes a little to get used to the power of the 45 cal but the more I use it the better it gets. | ||||

Excellent Weapon (5/5) | Jan 21, 2010 | Ms Blankenship | Monroe NC US |

I am a female who uses my Ultra Carry for personal protection. No better weapon on the market however, it is not for an inexperienced shooter. Small and compact it is as accurate a weapon as I have ever used. I ran my 500 break in rounds with no difficulty. My son had never fired a handgun before and at 25 yards his first 3 rounds were headshots. I am more than pleased with this gun and trust my life to my Kimber. To anyone who is talking about the 15 yard range and self defense, at 15 yards it's not self defense in this state unless they are shooting at you. I have never seen a bedroom that was 45 feet long that one might need to shoot someone in for self defense. However, for personal protection in a home environment, its deadly accurate. |

None Better (5/5) | Jul 26, 2010 | Anonymous | |
| I have this weapon without the sights, which makes it that much more concealable. Smoothest shooter I have, even one-handed. I have a full size 1911 that isn't this smooth. | ||||

Great Accuracy (5/5) | Oct 24, 2010 | Mr. John | Eureka CA US |
| I was surprised at the 25 yd. accuracy. seven round groups of 6" with 230 grain round nose reloads. no jams, smooth cycling. Cleaned and lubricated before before 1st and after each shooting session. Tight grip helps. | ||||
