Kimber CDS9 Features The Kimber CDS9 uses a hammer fired action to deliver the crisp short reset trigger pull that 1911 shooters expect translated into a compact high capacity 9mm design chambered for 10 rounds of 9mm ammunition. Its match grade 3.18 inch barrel with a 1:10 inch twist is built for consistent accuracy at typical defensive distances giving the CDS9 a level of precision more often associated with larger duty pistols. The aluminum frame keeps the pistol lightweight for all day carry while the beavertail and integrated Picatinny rail add both comfort and accessory versatility for a light or laser. Fully ambidextrous controls including the slide stop and magazine release make the CDS9 equally comfortable for right and left handed shooters to operate quickly and confidently under stress. The slide is cut for an RMSc footprint optic allowing shooters to mount a red dot directly for faster target acquisition without sending the pistol out for machining or paying for an aftermarket plate system. White dot sights provide a reliable backup or co-witness option when running an optic so the pistol stays fully usable even if the red dot fails or runs out of battery. A flat face trigger improves finger placement and consistency of the trigger press compared to a traditional curved trigger letting shooters place rounds more precisely shot after shot. Compact and lightweight at just 1.34 pounds the CDS9 is well suited to concealed carry for shooters who want Kimber s 1911 heritage ambidextrous ergonomics and modern optic compatibility in a single easy to carry 9mm package.
