New Grips & Trigger For My Compat CDP
My hands are a bit on the small side and my fingers are a bit stubby so I made a couple of changes to my new Kimber. First I installed an STI short trigger. I've always used Cylinder & Slide short triggers in the past but this time I wanted pretravel adjustment tabs and that left STI as the only brand that I could find. It's all dialed in with 1/32 of pretravel. Perfect for my needs.
Then I swapped in a set of Esmeralda's slim grips in Cocobolo. If you're not familiar with her work you've missed out. When you go to her site you don't pick a style of grip - you pick out the exact pair that you want. The ones that I picked out are a bit lighter and redder in color than the stock Kimber grips and the detail work is exactly what I was looking for.
Sorry about the poor lighting I'm still getting that sorted out but the little Kimber fits my hand 100% better now.
