New Subcompact 2011 You Can Afford: Kimber CDS9
The Kimber CDS9 is a new, affordable subcompact 1911-style pistol chambered in 9mm. It features a single-action trigger, ambidextrous safety, and comes with 13 and 15-round magazines. While praised for accuracy and reliability, it's noted to have a 'snappy' recoil, more so than some competitors like the Sig P365 or Smith & Wesson Shield. This review from Honest Outlaw highlights its value proposition for those seeking a 1911 platform in a more concealable package.
