Description
Kimber optimizes the popular KDS9C with series of upgrades to create the KDS9C Rail. Built with an emphasis on personal protection, this high-performance sidearm now features a MIL-STD-1913 accessory rail for the installation of lights and lasers. The safety is also now ambidextrous, and an 18 round magazine is now included in addition to the standard 15 round magazine.
Like all of Kimber’s pistols, the KDS9C Rail delivers hair-splitting accuracy. This level of match-grade precision is largely thanks to Kimber’s proprietary bore sizing process, a crisp 3.5 – 4.5 lb trigger, as well as a 4-inch stainless steel bull barrel. The barrel features a 30° flush-cut deep crowning, and a series of milled, fluted slots to help the barrel cool off after prolonged firing. Accuracy is further enhanced thanks to Kimber’s fully adjustable sights composed of a serrated rear sight and high-visibility fiber optic front sight, however, an optics cut in the slide allows a micro red dot to be installed for enhanced target acquisition/engagement.
In addition to its match-grade accuracy, the KDS9C Rail delivers maximum ergonomics and shooter comfort. The grip features a sizable palm swell to comfortably fill the user’s hand, and a high undercut on the trigger guard offers improved handling. The front and backstrap feature a crosshatch cut, and G-10 crosshatch grip panels ensure maximum control over the weapon. Other features of the KDS9C Rail include generous cocking serrations in both the front and rear of the slide allowing the user to easily chamber a round, clear the weapon, and preform a press check.
