Manual

other than those for which the fi rearm was
originally chambered.
Read through the entire manual before
attempting to use this product. Safe
operation of this fi rearm is your obligation,
and requires that you completely read and
understand this manual in its entirety.
NOTE
Kimber Micro fi rearms are designed
to function best with projectiles that
have a smooth contoured nose. Kimber
recommends high quality, factory-fresh
ammunition that meets SAAMI specifi cations.
Unloading
This fi rearm is able to fi re both with and
without the magazine inserted. Removing
the magazine will not unload the fi rearm or
prevent the fi rearm from fi ring a cartridge
that is left or placed in the chamber. The
fi rearm is not unloaded until the magazine
is removed, the chamber is empty, and the
magazine well and chamber are both checked
visually to be sure they are both empty.
When retracting the slide is necessary as
instructed in this manual, the slide should
always be pulled rearward (“retracted”) by
placing your fi ngers on the slide serrations
and pulling. Always keep your fi ngers out
of the trigger guard and away from trigger
while retracting slide. Never put any part
of your hand or body over or in front of the
muzzle while retracting the slide.
Unloading if the fi rearm’s slide is forward:
1. To unload if the fi rearm’s slide is forward,
make sure the muzzle is always pointed in
a safe direction
and your fi nger is outside
the trigger guard and off the trigger
throughout the unloading process.
2. Remove the magazine placing your left
hand under the grip. With the right thumb,
press the magazine release button located
on the left side of the frame behind the
trigger. This will allow the magazine to fall
free from the magazine well.
3. Keeping your fi nger clear of the trigger, and
being sure the muzzle is pointed in a safe
direction, grasp the slide serrations and
pull the slide fully to the rear. This will clear
(eject) the live round from the chamber.
