Hi-Power Jack Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 What's she going to do with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nowayjose57 Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 Carry it, she shoots my 40 without any difficulty, and well, the difficulty she has is in racking the slide Originally from Miami, got too crowded Jose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might want to have her try to rack both, and see which is easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmooberry Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 My wife has a micro in 380. I tell you what, I have been nothing but impressed with that gun. Very well built, especially when you consider its usefulness as a pocket gun. Of course, the 380 has a super light recoil spring and the slide is really easy to run. We like it so much that I'm planning on picking up a micro 9 sometime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtchevy841 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 I have one that I bought for wife. My experience is not good. Been back to kimber 3 times. 2 times for extraction issues and one time for bad barrel. That was the first time. I've heard different stories about many different problems with the 9mm. Also some good things. But from what I know I wouldn't want to but it. For me it's been nothing but trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1A4ME Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 My nephew bought one (9MM) for his wife a couple of weeks ago. He shot it this week. He said it was accurate (surprised him due to the small size) and didn't seem to have a lot of recoil (his usual pistols are .45's). He likes it, but it's hers......tough decisions sometimes. You know. He said it only came with one magazine so he called around to the local gun stores and found one that had two magazines in stock. I think they only hold 6 rounds. If you can find them, there is a magazine made for them that is extended long enough to make it a 7 round magazine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottlep Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 I have a Micro 9. Not bad. Very snappy without an extended mag. KImber is taking forever to release the extended mags with the pinky extension, but I made my own from an extended Sig 938 mag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
