The CDS9 uses a match-grade, stainless-steel barrel measuring approximately 3.18 inches. It features 5R rifling, a 1:10 twist, and a flush crown. The dual captive recoil-spring system and external extractor are paired with front and rear slide serrations for controlled operation.
The pistol is single-action only with an exposed hammer. Controls include an ambidextrous manual thumb safety, an ambidextrous slide stop, and a reversible magazine release. The non-railed, smooth dustcover preserves a clean profile.
Sights are a practical 3-dot setup: a high-visibility orange front dot and a rear unit with two white dots, a square notch, and a forward ledge profile. Grip surfaces include black textured panels and a textured backstrap, plus a beavertail-style frame tang and an undercut trigger guard to support a secure hold.
Dimensionally, this micro-size, all-metal 9mm is built for compact carry without sacrificing capacity. It holds 10+1 rounds, measures approximately 6.2 inches in overall length, about 1.1 inches in width, and roughly 4.56 inches in height with the 10-round magazine. Empty weight is about 20.8 ounces.
