From Kimber: DESIGNED TO BE THE ultimate choice in concealed carry pistols, EVO SP was tailored by Kimber engineers to be the best shooting and most well equipped compact metal framed pistol on the market. Not only was EVO SP machined to the tightest allowable tolerances it was also put through multiple iterations of hands-on human factors testing to ensure the best possible user experience before finalizing the design. Standout features including an innovative grip system that eliminates hardware on the grip surface, a magazine release that can be configured for right or left-handed shooters, a striker indicator that allows for both a visual and physical confirmation the striker is cocked, disassembly with no trigger press, ledged tritium night sights for single hand manipulations and a sight picture no matter the light conditions, and a 6-7lb trigger with crisp reset. EVO SP is the ideal choice for shooters that demand a feature packed, compact size striker-fired firearm matched with all metal construction.
The all-metal construction adds durability without sacrificing weight. At just 19 ounces, the EVO SP weighs the same (and even less) than other handguns on the market tailored to the concealed carry crowd. Springfield’s XDS Mod.2, for example, weighs 21.5 ounces, and Smith & Wesson’s Shield weighs 20.8 ounces.
Magazine capacity and overall length are comparable as well. The EVO SP ships with two 7-round magazines, and measures 6.1 inches, both standard for the category.
Expected ship date is Mid December.
