Micro slides are made to the tightest allowable tolerances, with barrels machined from stainless steel for superior resistance to moisture. All Micro frames are shaped from the finest aluminum for integrity and strength. In many respects a miniature 1911, among the most important Micro 9 design advantages is a single action trigger with the kind of short, smooth pull that ensures accuracy and builds confidence. The thumb safety, slide release and magazine release are pure 1911 as well. Standard features include a lowered and flared ejection port for flawless ejection and a beveled magazine well for fast, positive loading. Sights are steel – not plastic – and mounted in machined dovetails for additional integrity. Each Micro 9 includes en extended 7-round magazine.
Ideal for shooters with small hands as well as those who insist on mild recoil combined with enough power for concealed carry or home protection, Micro 9 pistols are the right choice for many applications. Best of all, they offer unequaled Kimber quality, dependability and performance.
The Micro 9 Amethyst features a Purple PVD slide with laser engraved border, purple PVD small parts, Kimpro Silver Frame, and standard night sights.
Got this gun as more of a keepsake for my mother but overall I like the gun and so does she my only complaint isn't really the gun's fault. But if you have big hands as I do I wouldn't recommend this model because I found myself engaging the safety under recoil and not realizing it which could get you killed if you're using it for self-defense so if you have big hands I wouldn’t recommend it. But other than that great gun
