Kimber Cdp Compact .45

Guns Magazine, Jan, 2001

This month's Gun Of The Month prize is a Compact CDP .45 pistol from the Kimber Custom Shop -- ideal for personal protection and home defense. The Compact CDP features a light-weight aluminum frame, stainless steel slide, ambidextrous thumb safety, beavertail, rosewood grips and fixed three-dot tritium night sights.

For optimum accuracy and recoil control, the CDP is fitted with a match-grade trigger and bushingless match-grade 4" bull barrel. With a meltdown-style de-horning and radius job, the CDP holsters and carries easily, without snagging on concealing garments. A high-performance extractor and ejector, a complete set of Wolff springs and a beveled magazine well complete the CDP package. Weighing just 28 ozs., the Kimber CDP is an outstanding concealed carry gun.

The Kimber Compact CDP has a suggested retail value of $1,109.
