The Ed Brown KC9 Lightweight pistol in 9mm Luger and black finish (brand part no. EVO-KC9-LW) is a carry-focused 1911-pattern handgun built on a single-stack aluminum Bobtail frame for reduced weight without giving up custom-grade fit. Ed Brown thins the 4-inch slide substantially for weight reduction and adds a unique 7-top custom cut with special front and rear serrations, plus exclusive snakeskin texturing on the forestrap and Bobtail housing. An external extractor, an easy-to-change orange HD XR front night sight, a redesigned Tactical Edge U-notch rear sight, a bull barrel, and a flat wire recoil spring system round out the package. Among lightweight semi-auto handguns, this KC9 Lightweight configuration favors carry shooters who prioritize reduced weight.
