Can someone tell me when Kimber stopped making the Ultra Carry and began making the Ultra Cary II? I have a line on a MINT Ultra Carry with less than 300 rounds through her.

I was just wondering how old this gun is. I am awaiting the serial number but did not even see a place to enquire on the Kimber America website.

Thanks.
 
The Ultra Carry II is just their new lawyer driven safety design known as the Swartz safety system.

Every Kimber is now a "II" series with this safety. It is the safety that many do not like for it's inherent problematic inability to disengage during firing. The grip safety has to be depressed a certain way in some production pistols out of the box. Meaning it will not disengage the Swartz safety system if the grip safety is not pushed in in just a certain way.

It's been a heated debate with 1911 afficiando's for some time.

I'd say yours is the series 70 without the "dumb mans" safety. How old ? Don't know, but it is a better pistol than what Kimber produces today.
