Purchase a new qualifying Kimber KDS9c between March 3 and May 31, 2025, and you could receive a free concealed carry package valued at $260. It includes a Crucial Concealment Ambi Covert Holster (IWB/OWB), Crucial Concealment Ambi Covert Mag Pouch (IWB/OWB), C&H Precision RMSc/Holosun K footprint Optic Plate Kit (including fasteners), and an additional KDS9c 18-round magazine (or state compliant capacity).

“It is our goal to provide our consumers with everything needed to confidently carry our firearms, putting their trust in Kimber knowing that they have the tools needed to successfully protect themselves and others,” said Dennis Dougherty, Kimber board advisor.

In 2024 Kimber introduced two new models of the KDS9c, in many different finishes and feature packages. The KDS9c RL (rail) model consumers were asking for came first, followed later by the TFS (threaded) model of the KDS9c—the final feature that recreational shooters and enthusiasts demanded out of this high-capacity offering. Now, to sweeten the deal in 2025, Kimber is offering this “Confident Carry Redemption.”

When Patrick Sweeney reviewed a KDS9c for Shooting Illustrated last August he noted, “The big deal here is the trigger pull. Being the same size and capacity as the Glock G19 (and lighter in weight, despite being steel and aluminum, not polymer) and holding as many rounds, by choosing the KDS9c over the polymer option you gain a 1911 trigger pull. There are many companies that make improved trigger parts for Glocks, but at their best they do not become 1911 triggers. And the KDS9c has a very good 1911 trigger.”

The Confident Carry Redemption promotion is eligible for KDS9c’s purchased between March 3, 2025, and May 31, 2025. Full details and limitations can be found at the Kimber website, or by visiting any authorized Kimber dealer.
