Using Kimber magazines seems to help some, but not all, people who have this issue. This is probably caused by a weak spring or a badly designed magazine catch: this would require the gun going back to Kimber to testing and refitting, which means more time without your rather expensive firearm. This is an obvious problem, in that it would reduce the Micro 9 into a single-shot weapon, which is a lot less than ideal for self-defense. Unintentional Magazine EjectionsĪdditionally, some people have reported that the magazine from the Kimber Micro 9 sometimes ejects from the firearm, especially when using non-Kimber magazines that are supposedly interchangeable with the factory magazines, and a lot more affordable, too.
Also hot brass in the face is, generally a pretty unpleasant experience, especially if it’s in a self-defense situation so you’d be unlikely to be wearing eye protection. This is usually an indication of too much recoil energy getting back into the gun and it can lead not only to missing your next shot or dropping your firearm in surprise but also to excessive wear on things like the slide rails. Some users report that their Kimber Micro 9 does fire, but when it does, it often ejects the spent casing violently backward, often right into their faces. So, before you buy a Kimber Micro 9, consider these problems that some people have had over the years. A firearm that might not work has no place, I argue, being used for the defense of your own life. But the most important thing in a concealed carry firearm, as far as I am concerned, is reliability. The small size makes it ideal, at least in theory, for concealed carry. The Kimber Micro 9 is basically a small 1911 chambered in 9mm.
