I shot about 5 or 6 different small 9’s and the Kimber was the hands down winner in my book.
GUN SHOP MAN SAID JUST SIT ON THE COUCH WATCHING TV AND RACK THE SLIDE AND RELEASE, DO BOTH 8 ROUND MAGS IN ABOUT 200 TIMES AND ON 7 ROUND
NOW GUN HAS BEEN RACKED AND RELEASED 600 TIMES WITHOUT WASTING BULLETS
I definitely recommend the micro 9 as long as you get the kimber houge grip for it it’s the most comfortable gun you can hold and it’s beautiful
I agree. The rosewood grips are pretty but not to practical. I had a sharp edge on the rosewoods that cut my palm. Houge’s are much more comfortable and shootable.
The wife has 2 Kimber micro 9s. Loves them. Great shooting, no issues, easy to conceal.
Got the all black version, love this gun. I highly recommend getting the Mcarbo trigger kit installed, it makes the pull so much lighter.
I just bought one after watching your review. Can't wait to try it out at the range.
Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy your purchase!
Very thorough review. Thanks a lot.
My favorite gun and favorite carry is my Kimber Micro Raptor 9. It’s so nice. And beautiful
I love my Kimber micro 380 gun! I have very small hands and it's easy for me to use.
I have the two-tone version and love it. One of my EDC guns. At 10 yards can place all 14 rounds from 2 mags in the head. Brand new it does like better ammo. Once broken in, it will chew it all.
My sig p938 did the same thing with dragging the top round out of the mag after I loaded one in the tube and took out the mag to top it off. Bugged me out the first couple times but I got over it. Just won a rose gold micro 9 on GunBroker, can't wait for it to get here!!
I found the Sigg 938. Also pops the top round off when you eject the magazine.
thanks for sharing your thoughts gun wise and other 👍
I have the Micro 9 with Crimson Trace grip. Do not care for the laser as my hand just does not activate the laser unless I hold it a certain way, awkward, probably useless in an emergency. I noticed that when you first load a full mag and rack the slide, the second round rides up towards the chamber. This is what is causing the round to fall out when ejecting the mag. Best way I found is to load 1 round in the mag, load the chamber, then eject the mag and fill it with the 6 or 7 rounds, no more problems. First time firing this gun, the firing pin actually fell out onto the ground, along with the firing pin spring, and retainer plate. Replaced it back, and never a problem since. Still has me baffled.Gun is very accurate, great sights, and has become my favorite carry gun. I too have the DeSantis holster, it was $29 on eBay.
I am familiar with Glocks. I recently bout a Micro 9 raptor and love it so far. I haven't gotten to the range yet. I plan on getting a bigger one as well. Probably still 9mm just because it's so versatile and plentiful.
Nice review. Thanks
I own both the 9 and 380 micros. Love both. Have had zero hiccups with the 380 but 2 with 9 although only 100 rounds through the 9. I have the same problem on the 9 of round coming out when releasing mag. I drilled and tapped the mag releases and added extensions plus "buttons" that comes back towards hand/thumb. This cuts the time of changing mags in half .I don't have to change hand position. Love them, I am going to add an extension to the slid release on the 9 for the same reason.
I keep trying to wipe my screen clean but it’s on the video 😆 Nice review.
I have carried mine as a pocket gun with a pocket holster. Never had a problem in two years I have had it and many trips to the range.
I bought the Kimber Micro 9 Raptor. What a sweet looking weapon
Good review. Great gun!
To add more texture to the front of the grip frame try Talon Grips. They sell flat sheets of their adhesive rubberized grip material. I've used it on a CZ grip frame that was slick it made a big difference.
I use and carry the Kimber Micro 9. For its size, it is very reliable. To make it more effective and accurate. I have the extended mag for your pinky. I roughened the front of the grip to hold it on the recoil. Finally, I added a grip laser and you can shoot from the hip for soeed.
What holster do you use? Mine has ejected the mag several times and today it knocked it off safe.
@scottschaffer2755 I developed what you call a "fanny pack". I use a special one that carries a gun. Since I am a Senior, no one thinks an old guy would carry a gun. I have used this method for 15 years. Now, years ago, as an investigator, I carried a belt holster snubnose 38.
Beautiful gun. Great video.
I’m very happy with mine. Cheers!
Thanks for keeping me safe at 1:36
I have the nightfall model in this gun and love it. I use this as my every day carry.
That is one awesome piece. I first handgun was 1911 and the trigger is soo good. I sold it and got striker fired guns. Huge mistake. I'm gonna get one these I think.
In my experience, the loose round after chambering with a full mag and then ejecting it, is pretty common across several different brands of 1911’s (or 1911-inspired designs) and magazines. I’ve never had it cause an issue when shooting personally. More of an annoyance than anything.
I’ve had it happen with my Micro 9, Sig P238 and P938, Ruger SR1911 (commander), Sig 1911 (full-size), RIA 1911 (full-size), and a Springfield Armory 1911 (lightweight champion). I have had it occur more often with .380 and 9mm guns than .45.
I've never had a loose round, but when shooting my P938 I generally have to withdraw the mag manually if there's a round in the mag; the top round overhangs the feed ramp enough to prevent the mag from dropping free, but the round doesn't pop out of the mag when it's withdrawn. With only six-round capacity, I'm not often unloading the gun!
Oops! It's NOT all stainless. The slide is stainless steel, but the frame is ALUMINUM.
That's called "Second round drag". It happens for many reasons and can happen on ANY semi auto pistol. The friction between the top round and second round is greater than the friction between the second and third rounds. (What holds the second round in place.) The round is maybe dusty, the mag may be dusty or the magazine spring may have lost some tension. Used brass will many times cause this too. From the sizing die leaving a small bulge at the bottom near the groove and the rounds do not lie flat together.
If it does this with one mag and never with another, examine the feed lips for differences. 2:26 Yours shows the top round nose high which lets the rim engage the second round by the groove and pull it out. (Retired gun designer)
Thanks. Mind does that, and I had wondered why. Shoots just fine, but that tendency was annoying at best, to downright worrisome.
@@richardjohnson4238 I sanded the frame and slide rails to remove the factory coatings and it feeds like glass now. The coatings in the rails were gummy and will wear away in 200-300 rounds, but sanding is faster. 240 grit lightly, then 400 grit then finish with 800.
I own this. I was having ramp issues, sent it to Kimber to be polished. I ran 100 cheap blazer rounds through it today. Had 2 jams. I also have the same issue with the loose rounds in the well when I eject the magazine. However, when I run critical defense through it I have no issues.
That's interesting! I have never had ramp issues or ejection issues. It's so strange with that loose round in the well when ejecting the mag
I like it a lot...wish they offered mags held more rounds. But its really accurate.
As an aside, IWI Di Cut 9mm ammo had about a 10% fail to fire rate. They have hard primers, so I would be careful when using them, always test first.
Check out the Azula 938 holster. It's belt clip doesn't move around like your holster and the holster also covers up the safety which I like since I carry it locked and cocked.
I bought a Maxx carry holster for my micro 9, perfect fit clip is tight and it has an extention on the inside so the gun doesn't dig into your side. With the second round dropping in the magwell, I make sure all of the rounds are pushed all the way back into the mag and have cut the times it drops that second round to almost never. It is a great little gun, just a little hard to get the right grip when shooting. I have been thinking about getting the Houge grips for it to see if it made a difference.
Good video review Bro
Traded in this gun. When the slide even was racked just half an inch, after you ejected the magazine a round that came loose would fall through the mag well. Got very annoying having to catch a bullet falling out of the mag well each time I ejected the mag after carrying.
Have this gun in 380 and it doesn’t have this feeding issue. It did require a break in (which to be fair, maybe the shooter but I’ve never hard this with another gun), At first it’s super stiff and inaccurate. After 80 rounds, totally different gun. Accurate and smooth.
This gun loves running the slide wet! Also, make sure you CLEAN this gun fresh from the factory. Remove firing pin and ejector, which is super simple, to clean any gunk from factory. Never oil or lube firing pin. This gun also loves 124 grain.
I call that trigger pull having little "take up " not creep". Once you hit the wall it breaks clean without creep. Awesome pistol. Would highly recommend putt6a Taylon front strap on it. Skate board tape , rubber style or sandpaper grit. Your choice. Your grip will be way better. Why Kimber doesn't add front checkering to all these small carry pistols is just crazy.
They want you to spend more on the raptor. Which I did. The scalloped front checkering adds a ton of grip.
I just got same gun with laser. Havn't shot yet but love gun.
Great Review!!
subbed
Thank you!
Try Try again! Love your channel dude. Keep ya Head Up! U doing good man
I have the same problem when injecting the round from the chamber in my sig Sauer p938. The reason I went to the sig Sauer p938 instead of the Kimber micro 9 is that I can use or I should say sig Sauer says that they p938 is rated for Plus P ammo, unlike the Kimber.
Love the houge grip change and it and love the gun.
I really loved it, I sadly no longer have the kimber but I really loved it while I had it. Congrats on the awesome gun you have!
Best shooting micro Nine. Maybe my all time favorite 9MM.
I have an issue with the 8 round magazines failing to feed on the first round. Sent em back to kimber
My Kimber micro 9 had the same issue with the magazine. I also had issues with it not going into battery and halfway through the magazine, the slide locks itself open. As of right now, the gun is on its way back to Kimber for them to fix. This Kimber was bought as an EDC, but as of right now it can't be trusted more than two or three rounds before it malfunctions.
Try 1791 gun leather holster the glock 43 fits on it perfectly owb
Thanks for the video. Informative. Concerning the holster (I have the same for a glock 19), use strips of nonskid material behind the clip, against the leather. Will maintain clip from moving as much. I also trimmed the excess leather at the bottom of the holster for a more comfortable feel (AIWB carry, less poking when I sit).
Smart idea! I have a stealthgear USA holster on the way so I will be switching soon
get yourself a galco stinger holster, it's by far the best for concealed carry.
I own same gun, I bought mine a year ago Labor Day weekend. Mine just came with the six round mags. I bought Sig P938 7 rounders which I modified the finger rest to fit perfectly. I bought a couple Kimbers when they become available, I have noticed my kimber mags doing as you discribed. Have not seen it with the Sig mags though. Overall, love this firearm and I carry it everyday. Nice to see they are coming with dot sights, mine were black, but I had night sights installed and love them. Enjoy your shooter. If you haven't already, join us on kimber talk forums.
Scott, I just bought P938 last week. Now I was looking at the Mico 9.
Since you have them both, which one is a better/smoother shooter and more reliable?
Did I make a mistake with the Sig.? I had read so many good things on Sig, that kimber didn't show up on my radar.
Thanks!
+Ben Hayat I agree, I heard a ton about the sig and I know lots of guys how have it. For me the sig did not feel as good in my hand as the kimber does. They are both amazing guns. Go with the one that best fits you and allows you to shoot on target. They both are super reliable so you can't go wrong in either direction
Thanks WaiteProductios;
The funny part is that, I do have the Kimber top of the line custom version of Kimber .45 and it's top notch but due to it's high price, I kind of ignored Micro 9, because I thought it would be close to my .45 price range, not 1/3 :-) So I bought the Sig. Now I see, Micro 9 is even less expensive than my Sig.
I do agree, the grip of Kimber is better in my hand than Sig. But according to size chart that I have, Micro 9 and Sig P938 are very close to each other.
I was looking at this:
www.sportsmansoutdoorsuperstore.com/products2.cfm/ID/198514
But it's not on Kimber site anymore and I'm afraid is discontinued which is not good.
+Ben Hayat the link didn't work for me, what was it?!
Ben Hayat I really like both of them actually. I had some issues with the Kimber (FTF) in the first 200rds or so. It’s since then been 100%reliable. The sig I just bought last weekend and I’ve been to the range twice in at a little over 200rds with it. I’ve had no issues with the sig. I feel both are great carry pistols. The micro 9’s slide is more rounded which certainly aids in comfort carry. However if you have the 938 SAS I doubt you’ll feel much difference. The trigger on the Kimber is nicer and a little lighter (probably due to being broken in), sig has a plastic trigger which is kinda dumb. Uptake and break are both similarly nice and smooth. Sig sights are ledged on front for one hand operation, kimbers are rounded and difficult to rack slide without two hands. Something to note is Kimber only offers a 1 year warranty where as sig is a lifetime warranty.
I have 3 Kimber Micro 9s and 2 buddies that both carry the micro 9. Never had a loose round when removing mag.
Tom how is for a carry.
I had a S&W 915 that did the same thing with the round coming out in the mag well when I would release the mag.
I definitely recommend not playing with a mag with ammo in it.... great video other wise
Great little firearm! It can be a bit picky with ammo. Stay away from cheap steel casing ammunition.
What a nice micro 9mm... and small enough for pocket carry...if it was DA/SA it would be perfect (the chambered bullet fires with DA, the rest SA). Thanks.
I agree, would love to have that !!!!!
Will be on sale at Bass Pro at Thanksgiving with Crimson Trace Grips!
+Jay G. Thanks for the heads up!
The top round spitting out commonly happens on my Sig P938. As long is it shoots reliably, I could care less. Although it will confuse some people.
Michael Tran mine too. In fact the design seems pretty similar to the 938.
What you mean is you COULDN"T care less. Think about it.
+1 sig p938 blackwood
I own 4 Kimbers. 3 of those are Micro 9s'. My wife has the Belair Blue, my first one was a cool CSE (Cabelas Store Exclusive) and then I just had to have the Raptor. 850.00 out the door. Wow. Pretty expensive and I did choke a little. But it was to be my EDC and I wanted a quality gun which is why I paid the price. The gun has failed out of the box. It will not make it through a magazine without a FTE. Usually the second round. I have done everything I could do, a good clean, lube and ordered and installed a new recoil spring. Customer service had an RMA to me within an hour of the call. My issue now is this gun, when repaired will never be trusted as my EDC. I will not carry a repaired gun and count on it to save my life. This just destroyed me and now I have an expensive range gun that I will not carry. Thanks Kimber, the right thing to do would be to replace it but they scoff at that. A ton of money for a range monkey. I am so pissed.
Chris Sourp I have the Micro 9. Never an issue with over 800 rounds. But if I sent it back to Kimber I would expect it to function flawlessly. Sometimes it's just one part causing the issue. Sometimes it's the ammo.
As far as not trusting it. I think that is a little crazy. My Glock, .45 Shield, Bodyguard all had FTE issue. Once the recoil springs were replaced they functioned flawlessly. I would trust all of them.
Well, thanks for the comments, except for the "crazy" part. I was ranting a little but you sir, hit the nail on the head. It was the ammo. Kimber contacted me and said after 6 magazines they could not get the gun to fail. I was a bit stunned. By the way their customer service is great. I've been using Remington UMC 9mm 115 grain exclusively in all my 9s'. Ran great. EXCEPT in the Raptor. Kimber suggested using 124 grain to break in the gun. When I got it back I used Blazer, American Eagle and Maxtech all 124 grain and the gun did not hiccup once. 150 rounds of pure shootin bliss. YAY. I guess the Raptors are made to some pretty tight specs and the gun runs fine now with 124 grain EXCEPT Remington. The gun will not run Remington anything. So a big FU to Remingtons under- powered ammo. Thanks for your response Sir. Peace............
Chris Sourp . No problem. Glad it all worked out. Putting low grade ammo in a Kimber is like owning a Corvette and putting in 87 octane....
Chris Sourp -Do you still have it? maybe we can work a deal.
Let me know sir
I’m late to the party here, but..
Sell it or trade it for something that is reliable?
Great video going to subscribe to your channel can you do a video on holster ware and what's your preferred carry method? 😃
Some will take a 200 round break in with polish job on ramp to feed lower qual ammo as it will fail to go back into battery. Also slide moves even when safety on, which is not how actiall 1911. They have nice night sights.
The mag issue you're speaking of I always encounter with my Walther CCP2 9mm and my Springfield Hellcat. I'm assuming most of smaller conceal carry pistols may have this slight problem.
how did fix the problem. with the round coming off the of the magazine.
The Kimber is basically a copy of the Colt Government model 380 from the 1980’s. My only complaint is about 10% of them have “bugs” that need to be resolved.
I love my Kimber 9 micro
And your lose round in the mag well happens on the smaller sigs and even happens to my compact glock. But how often are you dropping a full mag in a shoot out unless you have a failure and if you have good training you should drop that mag and draw a new mag.
I carry the 45 ultra carry.
I edc the kimber pro carry 2
You did a nice job discussing the Kimber Micro Nine (9).
WARNING: YOU SHOULD NEVER DISCUSS OR SHOW OR TALK ABOUT ANY GUN WITH A LOADED GUN. You should move ALL ammo off the table and probably keep it out of reach. I understand that you wanted to show issues with the gun and needed to put a loaded magazine in the gun. When you are finished showing that issue you could make it a part of your video putting the ammunition away.
Good video. Keep up the videos. Rod
I figured out the only way it will load the first round reliably is to use the slide release. Pulling the slide and letting it slingshot always jams it.
Bought the Kimber micro 9 for myself and micro 380 for my wife the 380 is so easy for her to rack. I have not had a chance to get to the range to shoot them yet.
Verdict?
ditto the loose round. Mag does NOT like to hang onto Hornady's Critical rounds... I always wonder if the second round will be there! I don't blame the firearm, ...it's a flaw with the mag.
I’ve had that issue happen to me a lot, even had the magazine spit out 3 rounds when I eject the magazine 🤷🏻♂️🤔🙄 but I like the gun still.
This happened to me as well. I thought I had done something wrong.
That issue can happen to any semi-auto
Those pistols you mention with the grip safeties are all double action not single action. Totally not comparable.
If you like it buy it.. Don't really feel good about cocked and locked with this one but. And M*CARBO main and trigger spring make it much better.
I put a Houge grip on too.
I was dead set on getting this Micro 9...then I found out from a couple of local ranges that their rental Micro 9s they had frequently got sent back to Kimber for repairs...and in one instance, they had frame fracture issues. So...probably a great carry piece, but heavy usage might expose some long-term reliability issues. Just what I've been told, but I'll trust the ranges on this.
Thanks for the input, I have not heard that problem. It may also depend on care of the gun. People tend to be really rough on rental items and they also tend to not get properly cleaned and taken care of. But al said and done that's good to know and thanks for watching
There's another review of a micro 9 in which guy is shoving dirt in the slide, dropping it, and chucking it at things... Through all the stress testing he did - the gun worked every time, no damage to anything but the grip. Put several hundred rounds through it. And he was very liberal in shoving dirt into the slide.
It's an all metal gun except for the side grips. The side grips did fracture in his stress test as they are plastic-y.
I would like to know more specifics about what sort of frame failures occurred. However, unless these fractures were caused by dropping the weapon, cracks from firing are totally unacceptable. The micros remind me of the Colt Mustangs, does anyone know if the alloy Mustangs had frame cracking issues?
Just traded mine for an ar15. Honestly, I really really really wanted to love this gun. I had the night fall edition that came with rubber grips, extended mag, and true night sights (new). Very sexy all black, single stack 9mm firearm. I cleaned and lubed her up before I went shooting, and every time after that. All shots would print very low to the right (would miss the target completely and hit the cardboard). Had other people shoot it and the same thing happened. Wasn't sure if was the sights or what. If I aimed up to the left just slightly it would hit dead center. Didn't do research about this company until after my spontaneous purchase at the gun show. Realized after, that this company uses cheaper/economical means of creating their parts. Many people argued this process still created great parts (they mold their parts vs milling them). Ironically, after about only 200 rounds in, I noticed the inferior manufacturing mentioned... The slide was pretty scratched up already where the shells eject; basically most of the color was gone in that area (cosmetic only, but still). Also, after taking the beauty apart, I noticed the firing pin had two indentations on it. The crescent design firing pin was actually made after they realized the flat pin was not working. Well.. the crescent design isn't working either; the part that slams into it after each shot (I think the firing block?) is literally denting into the firing pin, hence the two indented marks already there. Of course this made me worried that this will overtime destroy the firing pin. I went onto Kimber's website to look at the price of their firing pins for the micro 9. Sold out. Of course. For how much I paid for this gun, I was fairly salt about these problems. Don't get me wrong, the gun fired, no malfunctions, but I still shouldn't have these problems with an apparently high end firearm. I didn't even want to bother sending it in, since there are quite a few stories out there indicating the lack of "fixing" the gun when sent in multiple times. This may or may not be an isolated problem with just my Kimber. Def one of the most compact/powerful guns I had, very sexy, very practical, if it had worked. Glad others got a better batch of this gun, the gun was super easy to conceal and def had enough ammo to get the job done. Shot this along side my friends Taurus 9mm, was very sad seeing the Kimber being outperformed by a gun priced less than half of the Kimber. Just had to put that out there for people wanting to get some more insides of the Micro 9.
Do a complete spring job and you’ve got a great pistol. Feed it well
That loose round is not just a Kimber issue. I found if you let the slide slam really hard it nocks the next round loose. My P936 does the same thing. I don’t think it affects the function at all.
Additionally I have only noticed it doing that on target loads. My hollow points don’t do it.
I thought I had my CCW picked out (P938) but when I went shopping today, a salesman asked if I had considered the Micro 9? After having him show me some Micro 9 examples, I decided UA-cam research was in order.
I have watched several different reviews on the Micro 9 and it appears the biggest issue (if it presents) is the fail to properly feed. That said, from reading comments it seems the feeding issue is primarily ammo related and you resolve it by purchasing quality ammo in a larger grain to break in the gun.
Time to get back out there and find my Micro 9!
Can I ask what swayed you from the 938 to the Kimber? I am in the same situation you were and I'm leaning towards the Micro9 almost purely based on looks, but from what I can tell the p938 seems to be the almost-universally preferred option of the two.
hd74xlhs
While true the ammo quality could be sub-par a more likely culprit of jamming could be due to the right specs of Kimbers for precision. Kimbers 1911's require frequent lubeing/cleaning. Also Kimbers tend to need a 500-1000 rounds of firing to 'break the gun in'. I'll probably buy a Micro 9 as soon as I can afford one.
Anon Moose I’ve had a 938 and the ammo dropping out of the mag when you eject the mag with his kimber happened with my 938 also. The kimber is a bit slimmer than the 938 it’s not as wide.
I love mine. I had carried a Colt Mustang for years and the Kimber was finally nice enough looking / feeling / shooting to make me retire it.
@@IAmSwatchingYou , looks and the built in laser grip are what made me choose the Kimber. I never liked the lookes of the Sig.
I would like a holster that covers the safety, just saying. Great video. Well done. I want one. Now! Lol
My stealth gear USA holster covers the safety. It’s an amazing holster and I love to support my local companies! They are a little expensive but I have found no better holster, I have that brand for 3 of my guns
If you have only carried modern striker fired pistols and have never trained with a 1911 style gun, you need to practice a LOT in order to become completely familiar with the single action trigger pull and the safety. A micro second's hesitation can get you very dead. Practice!
Yup
Yes, I lay awake at night worrying about that micro second; even though it will take me over a seconds to get out of the holster.
Lmao
They make these things called "snap caps". You should try them.
They are very well made….but really small. I would prefer something just a little larger
Where did you get the intro from
I bought one. It fails to feed after the first shot every single time no matter what grain or bullet nose style I use if I put 7 rounds in the magazine. It never fails to feed if I put 6 in the magazine. I have multiple 7 round Kimber mags, happens to all of them. The factory trigger is heavy at 8lbs whereas all my Kimber 1911s are 4. I've thought about having it lowered as it causes pull off in such a small weapon. I also find it difficult to find good grip on the upper frame and slide because of its size. I do like the weapon as a carry and do. I just run with one less round than it's supposed to be capable of. I mostly carry it in an ankle holster and it works there very well; I wouldn't worry about having to run and it cause problems.
I have the same problem, im surprise there arent mor similar comments...plus misfires quite often with 115 grain, reluctant to carry conceal...were you able to correct the magazine hangups....
@@tchin2020 Unresolved
I've had failure to feed, sent it back. Still an issue with one ammo, not as bad with another. I'd say do not waste your money on a kimber micro 9. The clip security is an issue, so many problems.
Having problems not feeding yes doing better ammo
Put some velcro on that holster clip. Tighten it up.
It would be the cats meow if they made this model with dbl action.
Mine does the same thing.
I had to get rid of it, when it came down to it, I did not like having an external safety with a EDC
With all the problems of sights falling off and Broken parts light primer strikes!!
This is a very Expensive Paper Weight.
I would NEVER rely on or recommend this pistol for Self-defense!!
Had one for about six months with nothing but problems! Sold it and bought ammo for my Ruger! Lol
Loose round in the mag well? What is this....airsoft???
whatvis the price of this kimber pistol arevyou nuy this online in wish app
My dad bought 2 Micro 9's, one for himself one for my sister. Both run great but one shoots 6 inches low and 3 inches right at 16 yards with various factory ammo. The other hits 4 inches low and 5 inches right at the same 16 yards . Ammo used was Hornady Critical Defense 124 gr, Sig 124 gr , Winchester 115 gr, American Eagle 115 gr and military ball 115 gr. The sight regulation isn't that great though they are good pistols I am not impressed with the accuracy and why I carry my 1911 Colt Commander 45 that shoots to the sights.
Thanks for the upload, I'm in Oregon and I am torn between the Springfield Armory micro 9 1911 EMP 9mm single stack with the crimson trace laser grip,
And the kimber micro 9 1911 9mm cdp satin and silver with crimson trace laser grip. They're currently retailing for $1,000-$1,100 with the "gear up package " (5 mags,speed loader, magazine belt clip, 4-5 extra magazines, a hard shell case & a carrying case. Any ideas on your options are welcome. Merry Christmas bitches!!
Two years later if you're still in Oregon better buy any more guns you want before January.
I grabbed a nylon? Blackhawk holster instead of the DeSantis, but, same same, very happy. Thanks for sharing and great call with "give blood"! Do.
Just got a Micro 9 ESV that fails to ignite 2 to 3 times per mag (124gr FMJ). Light or no primer strike; the light strikes are on the outer edge of the primer. How is this acceptable in a 9 hundred + dollars pistol? It is not.
Desantis slim tuk is the only way to go
I have a Kimber Woodland Nights Micro9 do you have a problem of the shell nose dive and won't go into the barrel without jacking with it need to knmow
My micro 9 Raptor did that. I sent it back to Kimber and now it works flawlessly
