    I haven't seen anything published about the Ultra Eclipse IIT, But I'm sure it will be a Custom Shop Gun ... here's info on the Eclipse IIT Custom, Pro and Stainless Gold Match: Custom Eclipse IIT and Pro Eclipse IIT Featuring a slide and frame machined from stainless steel forgings, both versions are chambered in .45 ACP and ideal for concealed carry and defense. The unique matte finish with brush-polished flats is elegant and functional. Custom Shop features include 30 LPI front strap checkering, extended ambidextrous thumb safety, gray/black laminated grips and match grade Premium Aluminum Trigger. Both models have Custom Shop markings and special serial number sequence. The Custom Eclipse II has a match grade five-inch barrel with match grade chamber. It is the first Kimber pistol to include adjustable Meprolightr night sights. The Pro Eclipse II has a match grade four-inch bushingless bull barrel with match grade chamber. It features fixed Meprolightr three dot (green) night sights.Stainless Gold Match SE IITAvailable in .45 ACP and .38 Super, the Stainless Gold Match SE II features a frame, slide and barrel machined from stainless steel forgings. Designed to win action shooting competitions, it is the first Kimber with a serrated flat top frame.

    Just curious what competitions they are marketing the 38 super for? The gun only holds 9+1 rounds so I think IPSC and IDPA are out.
