Kimber Pro carry vs Kimber Ultra Carry

ill check it out thanks.

 

I have a Kimber SIS 5 inch and could not be happier. It is the most accurate pistol I have ever shot. Whoever told you that Kimber's are not good pistols any more, is a moron. Unless you want to fork over $2,500+ for a custom Ed Brown 1911, go with a Kimber.

 

my brother and his co workers said so. he bought one and he loves it but it jammed on him a couple of times and something when wrong with the spring. My brother is a cop so he said man what would of happened if i was stuck in a shoot out with this kimber cause he carrys it instead of the issued glock. so idk i heard that kimber is still a good gun but as the yrs passed thw quality of the guns are getting lower and not as good as they used to be.

 

I have the Ultra carry 3" barrel and have carried it all day many times and back and forth across country on a motorcycle. Very concealable and comfortable. It also shoots extremely well. For self-protection your target will usually be within 10 yards....you can shoot their eyes out.

 

+1 on the 4" or longer barrel length. I owned a Springfield 3" and it was nothing but problems. The two-piece recoil spring in the 3" models is not as stout as the one piece guide rods on the 4"+ models. I've shot apart two of the 3" springs at the range.

If you like the short grip of the Ultra, consider the Compact size. It is an Ultra size grip with a 4" barrel. I currently carry a Kimber Compact CDP II. The pistol most similar to what you're looking at is the Compact Stainless II;

The Compact CDP II is the only other pistol available from Kimber in this size and its an excellent option if you want all the bells and whistles.
