There’s no shortage of micro-compact, striker-fired, optics-ready, 9mms out there, so we didn’t know what to expect when Kimber jumped into this competitive field with the R7 Mako. On the one hand, Kimber has built their reputation on creating feature-rich 1911s that offer shooters the custom touches they crave. On the other, it can be difficult and painful for gun makers to try to break into new markets, especially those that are saturated with established players. But Kimber hit it out of the park with the R7 Mako and so impressed the judges that it earned an impressive, and uncommon, double win as both the Editor’s Choice and Great Buy in the micro-sized handgun category.
I believe that the SIG P320 compact is not the best gun to ever exist and nor is it the best 9mm to exist. However, it makes my editor’s choice as the best pistol, because it’s a jack of all trades gun that can efficiently serve as a concealed carry gun, a capable home defense firearm, and a fun range gun. I personally love how the modular design allows it to jump between categories and gives you a higher degree of customization. The gun comes with a rail and metal SIG night sights, as well as an additional magazine. Therefore, because this firearm is in all categories like CCW, home defense, range, and more, I give it the overall best 9mm gun you can check out. You won’t be disappointed if this is your first, or your only gun.
No segment of the firearms industry is more competitive than the market for handguns. Each year shooters are inundated with new offerings. This Darwinian environment is a blessing for those looking to acquire a new blaster. To stand out from the crowd, gun makers have taken to producing feature-rich handguns with good ergonomics at reasonable prices. For instance, accessory rails are nearly ubiquitous. Most handguns can be modified by interchanging backstraps, switching mag releases from one side to the other, or both. Magazine designs that maximize capacity while maintaining overall dimensions for comfortable concealed carry are the norm. Then there are thoughtful touches, such as slightly flared mag wells, patches of stippling for the support-hand thumb, slide cuts, upgraded sights and other tweaks that are included in many of the best handguns builds.
When the EZ series was introduced a couple of years ago, I remember the internet experts and gun counter commandos bursting about how it was the “gun that nobody needed or asked for.” As usual, the internet experts and gun counter commandos were wrong. The EZ series has been a runaway hit because it was designed for real people with real limitations. The slide is easy to retract and features wings at the rear to assist. The magazines are easy to load, the sights are easy to see, and the trigger is easy to press. I could do without the grip safety, but it does serve a purpose to train the shooter to keep their hands high and tight. In a perfect world, the EZ would have already adopted the optic mounting capabilities of the Shield Plus, but I’m sure that will be forthcoming. Regardless, the EZ in .380, 9mm or the new 30 Super Carry is a solid choice for newer shooters, especially ones that might be dealing with physical limitations. See more information at Ballachy.
