Some of you people are really sick . . . you know it? I can detect something in your voice . . . and the way you are panting . . . some kind of "make my day" paranoia. Get help.
Please tell me how do you holster this with the Clip holster in front / inside your front pants..., because of the long beaver tail. I know it will hurt your stomach.
This is the only way to conceal carry with a t shirt. By the way I am from Thailand.
Thanks for the respond and comments.
Or will it be better to buy a .45 ACP Sig Sauer with no beaver tail...
But i always want a 3" 1911 in my collection for conceal carry.
@humans4targets2 how many rounds have you put in it, any jam at all? how do you rate this firearm from 1-10, 10 being the best for CCW, reliability, durability, accuracy?
It is a little pricey but with kimber you get what you pay for. Just get some Wilson Combat mags and you are ready to go. I hope you like your new toy.
idk if you have found a good holster yet but I just picked up a N82tactial holster and it is by far the best ccw holster I have ever purchased. I got one for my CDP Ultra II and my FNP .45 Tactical and they both ccw super well with it.
a kimber cant compare with any colt on the market! ask kimber about the barrel rusting on their $1600.00 plus guns!!!! ha! any 1911 on the market is better than the kimber! all that custom shop BS is crap. kimber brags about carbon steel match grade barrell, assembly,! kimber, ever heard of stainless steel? extra etching per sguare inch for grip! ha! BS! the best thing on my kimber is the night sights and crimon trace laser and both are not made by kimber!!!
how many rounds have you shot through this raptor? Malfunctions? I have 450 through my ultra raptor- 8 ftf with hollow points, 1 ftf with ball fmj, and 3 early slide lock backs.
Hey, i have a couple questions about this 1911. I really like this gun a lot and i am thinking about getting it and possibly carry it. Would you recommend getting this gun in stainless to shoot often and carry or think the black finish will hold up better? Once i get a holster for this gun i dont want to get major holster wear on it. Do you think that it would do this with a stainless gun? Also does it scratch easily or have scratches show up more than a parkerized or blued gun? Thanks a lot
@xxxxRandomHeroxxxx You want to go with stainless, the blued will show wear after a long time of carrying, but the stainless can be polished up to look like new again.
@humans4targets2 Sweet thanks, thats probably what ill end up doing. One more question i forgot to ask, It looks as if the frame and the slide are slightly different shades of the stainless steel, is it noticeable and do you mind it? thanks
Awesome weapon! I just picked up my Stainless Raptor II, full frame. It is brand new and I have fired about 400 rounds thru it. No malfunctions yet, but it seems to shoot to the right. Anyone out there have any sight issues with their Kimber?
On another note, I make custom kydex holsters. I know this video was posted a while ago but if you or anyone is looking for a custom holster, hit me up at multiholsters@yahoo.com
My Kimber Ultra Carry II , in 45 cal, is a great weapon. You do need to keep it clean. A Glock out of the box is dead on. But a Kimber you must break in after the break in this gun is dead on. By the way we live in the United States of America. UNITED STATES so why is it that we all dont have the right to carry in all states? What a bunch of bull crap. People are jailed for having a gun on them if you have a permit to carry then it should be good in all States. Again we are all United Thanks
any thoughts from the h4t world on the small compact 1911's i've been told that 1911's weren't meant to be subcompact but i have subcompact polymer guns that im please with. i want a 1911 thats comfortable iwb so i'd think the small kimbers would be great for cc but if the full size is more accurate i'd go that rout
@humans4targets2 It really is pretty, I've got an eclipse II custom, not as pretty but still no slouch. I've got a hard on for the new kimber solo carry, its really sexy for a pocket gun.
great gun I looked at it too. but I decided on the springfield armory micro compact. I bought the crossbreed super tuck holster for it and it works really well. Try lookin at crossbreed they make a great product
Great Gun!! I looked at it too but ened up with the springfield armory 1911 micro compact. I got a crossbreed super tuck for mine and its a great IWB holster!! I liked it so much I bought one for my smith and wesson M&P 9 mm compact.
OMG!!!!I can't believe I there was a Rahm Emanuel for Mayor of Chicago ad at the begining of this. How ironic. He'll be another Richard Daley. Anyway--- Nice gun. Just picked up the same one today.
I like it A LOT, love the serrations, checkering, LOVE the fact that it is all stainless, not a problem (weight wise) for a short barreled gun. It is a work of art, let me know how it performs on the range.
Give us some specs...size, weight, break down while we watch and most of all include the LIST price and also the price you, or we might expect to pay!
Nice gun. Manually riding down the trigger is bad for Kimbers as it rounds off the connection between the sear and hammer. Kimber says to just dry fire it.
good video, what holster did you get? im getting my kimber ultra raptor 2 soon and i was thinking about getting one of the crossbreed holsters for it.
I'd assume you have bought a holster by now, but I do suggest looking at Don Hume holsters. Not everyone likes them, but my Don Hume works best with my Kimber Super Carry Ultra
I absolutetly LOVE the Raptor series from Kimber, however i prefer fullsize only ! Not a big fan of the small compacts because i simply think that the fullsize looks more beautiful !
Hey Paul, I have the Kimber Ultra Raptor 2 but not in stainless, it is one of my favorite pistols....Congrats on a great pistol....Great video....Keep up the great work..
Hey Paul I just purchased that same Gun, is there any advise and tips you can share with me. Like ammo magz ect. I'd really appreciate it. maybe even a takedown.There isnt too much on yt on this piece. P.S. Hope I ain't asking for too much. LOL. Thanks TFM
Have you fired it yet or is it still a virgin. Beautifully designed firearm. When I do get a 1911 model, this is the one I will start with. I just added the Sig 238 SAS stainless model with similar wooden grips to my collection. Size and design is very similar to this model. Single action, beaver tail but no grip safety and of course it shoots 380 caliber and not 45 ACP. Some reviewers swear BY Kimbers reliability while others swear AT its lack of reliability. What's your experiences?
@oldwithgold 120 rounds so far throught it, the internal extractor Kimbers are great, it was some of the external extractor models that were the problem, and Kimber states there is a 200 round break in period.
DAMN U H4T!!! I had just beat back the desire to purchase this gun that I had been fighting for 2 weeks and then I found this vid. Damn u for spending my tax return.
How do u like the stainless as compared to the blakened Kimpto finish? In your opinion are the scales grippy enough on the slide god forbid they get muddy or bloody? Same question for the frontstrap.
@1AbominAble1 lol, I like the stainless on the small one and the scales do give you a pretty good grip, great and smooth shooting gun that will enjoy :)
dude, nice video. I have a raptor as well. It has a longer barrell thought but still the legacy of raptors is still the same. goes side by side with my browning high power.
the 3in barrel ultra models have a shorter grip than the 4'', so if your hands are REALLY large, go with the 4'', I have pretty big hands and the 3'' does me well. Recoil is greater, not substantially, but it is greater on the 3'' models; but definitely not enough to veer someone away from it.
One problem I have seen is that some dealers are charging more for the 3'' models and that is a ripoff, Kimber prices most 3'' and 4'' models in a series the same.
hey NICE GUN bro am thinking of getting the kimber raptor 2 5 inch stainless but am a first time buyer would the kimber raptor 2 be a good choice and if yes Y thanks
My advice is get what you like! If not you will regret it later, shooting is about having fun and part of that fun is having a beautiful firearm like the Raptor to show off to people..lol.. So I would say go for ir, it is easy to shoot with a light trigger pull, very accurate and holds it's value. Any other question's just let me know. h4t
Buy a gun that you have shot before, everyone has their own preference towards guns. Go to a shooting range and see what the people have and ask them, most people would be more than willing to let you fire their gun if you ask politely and talk to them about their gun, ask their input about it- but the end decision is yours.
Kimber is about style. The U-CDPII, U-Carry, and U-Raptor is the same gun frame and slide, just looks differently. Don't place style over function like I did, you'll save $
dude that gun even SOUNDS smooth, the only reason I wanna go live in the states for some time is because I love guns n sure hope to pick up a raptor in the near future!
Over priced for what you get. Many better values for custom 1911 carry guns out there IMO. Look at the Dan Wesson Commander Classic Bobtail. Same as an Ed Brown Cobra at 1/3 the price. Cheaper than Kimber with more custom/high-end components.
Congratulations on purchasing a sweeeeet pistol! I have the full size raptor II in blue and saving up for the stainless version. How about a range report after you shoot your pistol?
Incredibly nice firearm! Have my eyes and wallet set toward that one, probably early next year. I love it, "I got another gun I bought the day before this one...". I could only dream to be fortunate enough to buy firearms of that caliber (no pun intended) on a daily basis. Congratulations!
I love the looks of the raptor. I hear on some of the 3" 1911s, the recoil assembly needs to be replaced on occasion. Have you found this to be true? The grips are one of my favorite parts of the gun.
..and love the feel of the Raptor, but cant get over the appearance. Put hogues on the ultra tac - fits my taste - but you got a great size of a great gun!
Wow, I can't believe I missed this vid.That's a real beauty. I haven't seen that one in the shops. Do you still have it 5*s for the gun alone. Good job.
kimbers jam, and porches wreck. You need to spend all that money on the car AND get good tires?? And expensive gas? Yep. New magazine, reccomended bullets, and Kimbers don't jam.
jesus...you think that would make a good first gun for a first timer of all things that are firearms? lol, i have never fired a real gun in my life. However I do like buying quality stuff.
Here is my opinion on that, if I had no guns my first gun would be a Glock, then maybe later down the line go something more expensive. Ideal thing for someone with no guns to start with get a Glock new or used and a Remington 870 or Mossberg 500 12 gauge shotgun. Paul
ugh glock. lol. I know they're really reliable and inexpensive, but I've never liked the way glock looks. I've always liked 1911's and sig sauer p229/p226/p220 guns. I was hoping to make one of those my first.
Very nice review man! Glad to see your back. I was not a big fan of 1911 type pistols until I got my ProCDP II from Kimber. Now I a huge fan of this platform. Thats a great looking gun with the scallops. I've seen them in person and the videos just dont do the gun justice. Hope you enjoy that nice pistol and I'll be waiting for the re-reviews of your other guns too.
Sweet! The different serrations/scallops in the various places is pretty cool. Anybody and everybody can do plain-jane checkering and striations. Its definitely at pretty piece. Thanks for sharing and can't wait to see the other firearm you bought. Take care... ---Zach
I sure like your video's. BTW, w

Hey man, I've seen one in the newspaper for sale. Is this an aluminum frame or steel? Also, have you carried it and how does it conceal?
chanderson1 2 years ago
The frame on mine is aluminum, and I have not carried it yet but it shoots pretty darn good!

humans4targets2 2 years ago
Over priced for what you get. Many better values for custom 1911 carry guns out there IMO. Look at the Dan Wesson Commander Classic Bobtail. Same as an Ed Brown Cobra at 1/3 the price. Cheaper than Kimber with more custom/high-end components.

Personally, i think this is the best defensive, CC weapon option out there.
Still trying to decide between this one and the Ultra CDP.

Hey man, that's one nice 1911 you have. I really like your vids. Please keep em coming.

Congratulations on purchasing a sweeeeet pistol! I have the full size raptor II in blue and saving up for the stainless version. How about a range report after you shoot your pistol?
tmax5150 2 years ago
I fired it and was great! Hit anything I pointed at.
humans4targets2 2 years ago
Incredibly nice firearm! Have my eyes and wallet set toward that one, probably early next year. I love it, "I got another gun I bought the day before this one...". I could only dream to be fortunate enough to buy firearms of that caliber (no pun intended) on a daily basis. Congratulations!

I love that gun, Im trying hard to find one on trade for a HK45C.

I love the looks of the raptor. I hear on some of the 3" 1911s, the recoil assembly needs to be replaced on occasion. Have you found this to be true? The grips are one of my favorite parts of the gun.

I have not fired it much, but you would be safe to change it every 2000 rounds.... Paul

Very Sweet . Im looking for something smaller for my edc. sw9ve i have is nice but would like something a lil smaller. Nice VID!

..and love the feel of the Raptor, but cant get over the appearance. Put hogues on the ultra tac - fits my taste - but you got a great size of a great gun!

humans4targets2 2 years ago
love this gun...too bad kimber includes only 1 mag on every gun though
faved & rated 5/5 :D
edwinmichaelquiboloy 2 years ago 2
Thanks, and the mag they send is not the greatest, my advice is buy a couple Wilson mags. Paul
humans4targets2 2 years ago
absolutely.. Just got an ultra Tactical - and all the kimbers i know of have done much better with the non-metal followers.
TXOdle 2 years ago
Wow, I can't believe I missed this vid.That's a real beauty. I haven't seen that one in the shops. Do you still have it 5*s for the gun alone. Good job.
bill13442 2 years ago
Thanks Bill, yeah it's only about two old now and a great little gun! Paul
humans4targets2 2 years ago
not checkering its called a chain link pat....
good vid thoe
theARMORYchannel 2 years ago
I would think that chain link design would tear your hand apart with the recoil.
pete5668 2 years ago
That is a truly nice pistol you have there! Kimber makes a fine .45 Auto! The Raptor is a very cool design. Thanks for posting.

has it JAMed on you ??? I like kimbers but , a lot of pepole say thet are junk??? and that jam alot??
dbi1036 2 years ago
kimbers jam, and porches wreck. You need to spend all that money on the car AND get good tires?? And expensive gas? Yep. New magazine, reccomended bullets, and Kimbers don't jam.

how much do one of those run? I want to get the one in 4"

$1200
humans4targets2 2 years ago
jesus...you think that would make a good first gun for a first timer of all things that are firearms? lol, i have never fired a real gun in my life. However I do like buying quality stuff.
deusness 2 years ago
Here is my opinion on that, if I had no guns my first gun would be a Glock, then maybe later down the line go something more expensive. Ideal thing for someone with no guns to start with get a Glock new or used and a Remington 870 or Mossberg 500 12 gauge shotgun. Paul
humans4targets2 2 years ago
ugh glock. lol. I know they're really reliable and inexpensive, but I've never liked the way glock looks. I've always liked 1911's and sig sauer p229/p226/p220 guns. I was hoping to make one of those my first.
deusness 2 years ago
Sig's are great too! Good choice and I would start out with one myself. Paul
humans4targets2 2 years ago
Very nice review man! Glad to see your back. I was not a big fan of 1911 type pistols until I got my ProCDP II from Kimber. Now I a huge fan of this platform. Thats a great looking gun with the scallops. I've seen them in person and the videos just dont do the gun justice. Hope you enjoy that nice pistol and I'll be waiting for the re-reviews of your other guns too.

Checkering on the front of the grip, slide, grips are suppose to be reptile-like, scales...like a Velociraptor...NICE...ULTRA-COOL!
Hey Paul...no permit process, 14-day waiting period? Just cater to your 2nd Amendment rights...lol!

LOL yes, from the time I said I will take it, I was carrying the box in ten minutes.
humans4targets2 2 years ago
That makes sense, it does resemble a reptile.
humans4targets2 2 years ago
Sweet!!! would like to see it shot. such a small 45 might be hard on the wrist. idk, would like to see one in person sometime.
adcogran 2 years ago
Sweet! The different serrations/scallops in the various places is pretty cool. Anybody and everybody can do plain-jane checkering and striations. Its definitely at pretty piece. Thanks for sharing and can't wait to see the other firearm you bought. Take care... ---Zach
