Ever since I began my study of defensive handguns, I've been fascinated with pocket pistols. These are the smallest of the small semi-automatics designed to be discreetly concealed for up close-and-personal defensive situations. I believe my preoccupation with petite pocketables can be traced back to one gun in particular: the Baby Browning .25 ACP. Not only is it an exceptionally well-made example of the vest pocket size pistols of the mid-20th century, it's also a little piece of family history as well. Read More

In some ways, the strength of the AR-15 is its weakness. Currently, the ATF defines the "gun" part of an AR-15 as the lower receiver, which holds the trigger pack. This means that all manner of accessories like different grips, stocks and whatnot can be added to the lower receiver. In addition to this, the upper receiver of an AR-15, the part which holds the barrel, chamber, sights and recoil mechanism, can be changed out simply by popping out two pins on the lower receiver.

The NEW KDS9c from Kimber is a testament to over 4 decades of the highest level of firearms manufacturing. The KDS9c was built from the ground up as a personal protection masterpiece. The barrel is fully fluted, crowned, and ramped. Our proprietary bore sizing process delivers match grade accuracy with every shot. Our engineers specified 7075 aerospace-grade aluminum to develop the frame featuring a fully integrated cross-hatch textured design for the front and the back strap that flows with the grip to deliver superior grip ergonomics.

A crisp 3.5-4.5lb trigger pull comes standard as well as two 15-round magazines which anchor the KDS9c as the premier personal protection platform that enhances your ability to defend yourself no matter the situation.
