I have on occasion worn my pistols as conceal carry locally, but most are too bulky, too heavy for everyday conceal carry. My big requirements; weight, reliability, safety, and trigger pull/design and accuracy were utmost in my mind.
I looked at many small conceal carry pistols. Gotta have a safety lever, light in weight, yet sturdy as all get-out. Handsome helps too!
I bought a pocket pistol, the USA Made Kimber Micro 9 Rapide in 9mm (7shot). It is basically a Micro 1911. It has an ambidextrous butterfly safety on each side. The clips have a pinky finger hook for a firm grip.
Below is my first 10 yard 115g UMC Remington groups right out of the box.
My right/left group was excellent. I moved the point-of-aim higher and a bit lower as they vertically string . Trigger pull was clean and guess near to 5 pounds. Comes with only one clip. I bought an extra clip.
Basic cost, $909.00.
Yes, that’s a lot.
So far, it filled all of my requirements and it wears well with a pocket holster.
More testing soon…
