Kimber has just expanded its line of KDS9c handguns with the CDS9, a new high-capacity micro-compact carry pistol.
Last year we reviewed the Kimber KDS9c, a pistol that the author described as a modernized 1911, and it left us very impressed. Since then, Kimber has released a couple more variants of the design featuring accessory rails and threaded barrels, but all were “commander-sized” with roughly 4-inch barrels. Now, the company is adding a micro-compact version to the lineup with the CDS9.
Like the KDS9c, the CDS9 is a single-action-only, hammer-fired 9mm pistol with a robust metal frame. Unlike the KDS9c, its barrel is only 3.18 inches. Each pistol will ship with one 13- and one 15-round magazine, but flush-fit 10-round mags will be available as well. The CDS9 also comes standard with an ambidextrous safety and slide release alongside a reversible magazine release button. Other features of the pistol worth mentioning include their optics-ready slides (RMSc footprint), accessory rails, G10 VZ grips, flat-faced triggers and TAG Precision iron sights with fiber optic front sights.
Mountie Mizer, Vice President of Sales at Kimber, said this about the new concealed carry pistol:
This product is a spectacular example of how Kimber continues to build consumer focused products with the attributes they are looking for. The CDS9 is just an awesome handgun for individuals looking for the most capacity with the greatest concealability.
The Kimber CDS9 is available now and has an MSRP of $1,075, as well as a TFS variant with a threaded barrel that has an MSRP of $1,095.
