Colion Noir revisits his initial negative impression of the Kimber CDS9, acknowledging it was unfairly compared to a higher-end model. He highlights the CDS9's impressive 10-15 round capacity in a remarkably small, double-stack, single-action hammer-fired 9mm package, praising its crisp trigger and natural pointability. Despite its compact size, recoil is manageable, though noticeable during rapid full-magazine dumps.
