There is always the classic "Colt Mustang" niche. Between Browning's .380 and the Kimber .380, maybe they are hitting that niche. Both gunmakers can afford to put some guns out in that category and hit another Colt niche in the way that the "IBM Cloners" used to do with Big Blue.
Haven't handled the Kimber, but the Browning "Mini Me" .22s and .380s are just fun stuff
