The Kimber CDS9 Lite pistol in 9mm (brand part no. 3700881) trims the CDS9 platform to a lightweight aluminum frame while keeping double-stack capacity and an RMSc-footprint optic cut for direct red-dot mounting. Kimber builds the pistol with a 3.18-inch match-grade barrel and a stainless steel, optic-ready, serrated slide, and the aluminum frame includes a beavertail and a Picatinny rail for accessories. Fully ambidextrous controls support right- or left-handed shooters. Among optic-ready semi-auto handguns, this CDS9 Lite configuration favors carriers who want a lightweight, red-dot-ready double-stack platform.
