The Kimber Micro 9 Stainless delivers full-size 1911 reliability in a compact carry package designed for everyday concealment. This precision-engineered pistol combines Kimber's renowned craftsmanship with modern manufacturing to create a dependable defensive firearm that maintains shootability despite its compact dimensions.
What Makes This Different
Unlike polymer-framed micro pistols, the Micro 9 features an aluminum frame with stainless steel slide construction that provides superior durability and consistent lockup. The 1911-style controls offer familiar operation for experienced shooters, while the single-action trigger delivers crisp breaks typically found in full-size pistols. Kimber's manufacturing tolerances ensure reliable feeding and extraction across various ammunition types.
