Planning to Use a Kimber CDP 45ACP for Your Next Trip to the Gun Range? Here's what makes this handgun different from other models! The Kimber CDP is a 1911 recoil-operated pistol that uses a .45 ACP cartridge. This semi-automatic handgun boasts an accuracy rivaling many high-maintenance weapon models. In the old days, the accuracy of a gun was limited by the manufacturing process, but the Kimber CDP is hand-fitted using advanced technology to deliver unparalleled precision. Intermediate and experienced shooters have raved about how easy the gun is to handle during informal shooting sessions at C2 Tactical. If you'd like to use this pistol during your next trip to the gun range, C2 Tactical has them available to rent. After trying it out, you can order your own CDP on Kimber's official site for $1,325. Kimber CDP 45ACP Sizes Kimber has the 1911 CDPs in different sizes. You can order a full-sized CDP built to spec if you know the weapon well enough to customize it. If you aren't an experienced shooter, there are standard options like the Ultra CDP, with a 3-inch barrel and a short frame. Compared to older 1911 models, the precision-crafted Ultra CDP is nothing short of a masterpiece. There's also the Pro CDP with a 4-inch barrel that's better suited for experienced gun aficionados. Kimber CDP 45ACP Specifications Here are the basic Kimber CDP specs:
  • Caliber: .45 ACP
  • Weight with empty magazine: 25 ounces [Ultra] & 28 ounces [Pro]
  • Height 90° to barrel: 4.75 inches [Ultra] & 5.25 inches [Pro]
  • Length: 6.8 inches [Ultra] & 7.7 inches [Pro]
  • Magazine: 7 rounds
  • Recoil Spring: 18.0 pounds [Ultra] & 22.0 pounds [Pro]
  • Ambidextrous thumb safety
  • Full length guide rod
Kimber CDP 45ACP Finish Back in the day, manufacturers had limited options for finishes on 1911 models, and the finish would be all but gone after the weapon had been used a few thousand times for practice. However, Kimber's CDP has a unique finish with 30 LPI checkering under the trigger guard and the front strap. The CDP also features a spray-on KimPro II finish on the frame to guard against rust that can withstand the wear and tear of a few thousand draws. The slide is stainless steel with a similar finish in satin silver for both Ultra and Pro models. Book a Lane at C2 Tactical's Gun Range in Scottsdale! With proper supervision, the Kimber CDP is a weapon even beginners can handle with ease. If you'd like to try it out, contact C2 Tactical on our website to book an appointment.
