Is Carbon Fiber The Future of Carry Guns | Kimber R7 Carbon Compact

About this video

Colion reviews the Kimber R7 Carbon Compact pistol, comparing it to his experience with the smaller R7 Mako. He breaks down what he sees as the gun’s standout features, including its carbon fiber-infused polymer frame, ergonomic grip design, and what he describes as excellent natural pointing characteristics. Colion argues the pistol excels as a versatile option for concealed carry, home defense, and range use, though he expresses his desire for extended magazine options.

Key takeaways

  • Colion highlights the carbon fiber polymer frame, which he says makes the gun lighter (19.5 oz) and stronger than comparable models
  • He praises the ergonomic grip design and texture, describing how it creates what he feels is exceptional control and natural point-shooting ability
  • Colion characterizes the trigger as a ‘rolling’ style that he believes works well for fast shooting in defensive scenarios, though he notes his general preference for wall-and-break triggers for precision work
  • He positions the R7 Carbon Compact as a versatile ‘do-it-all’ gun but requests Kimber produce extended magazines beyond the flush-fit 15-round capacity
