KIMBER ULTRA CDP II 45ACP 3″ 7+1

Kimber's Ultra CDP II in .45 ACP pairs a micro-compact frame with a 3-inch barrel and Meprolight Tritium night sights — a configuration built for concealed carry without stepping down in caliber. TacticCAL carries this DOJ Roster listed pistol for Bay Area buyers who want a serious carry option in a compact package.

The Role This Kimber Fills in a Carry Setup

The Ultra CDP II is a purpose-specific handgun. Buyers reaching for it typically already own a full-size 1911 or a larger service pistol and want something that carries more discreetly without abandoning .45 ACP. The micro-compact frame keeps the profile down; the ambidextrous thumb safety suits both strong-side and cross-draw carry. Meprolight Tritium 3-dot night sights mean the sight picture holds up in low light — relevant for anyone who takes carry seriously. A serrated slide aids one-handed manipulation. It ships with one 7-round magazine. Holster options from Galco or Safariland sized for the Ultra CDP II are worth sourcing before pickup. Looking at California DOJ Roster handguns?

Frequently asked questions

Does the Ultra CDP II's micro-compact frame make it harder to shoot well at the range?

Shorter grip and barrel do increase felt recoil with .45 ACP compared to a full-size 1911. Most experienced shooters adapt quickly. Newer shooters should plan range time with an instructor to build grip technique before relying on it for carry.

Is one included magazine enough, or should I plan to buy extras before pickup?

One 7-round magazine ships with the pistol. For carry or range use, most owners run at least two or three. Use the 10-day wait to source compatible magazines and pick up .45 ACP ammunition so you're ready for a first range session at pickup.

What do I need to have ready before starting the DROS purchase at TacticCAL?

You must have a valid Firearm Safety Certificate in hand before the purchase transaction begins — it's a prerequisite, not something completed afterward. Bring your FSC, a valid government-issued ID, and be prepared to submit DROS at the counter. The 10-day wait starts from there.

How long is the California firearm waiting period?

California requires a 10-day waiting period from when DROS is submitted until you can take possession of the firearm.
