Kahr pistols?

[kengel2]

Does anyone in the northshore area carry Kahr pistols?
Or do I have to wait til the next gun show?

I remember holding one of the single stack 9mm's and it felt pretty good, I have tomorrow off and would like to go look at some again.

I have actually handled a Kahr before. It was a range rental, but I had a rather poor experience with it.

First of all, the slide release felt like it was loose or about to break. Also, whenever the slide was released, it would not go completely into battery (I think that's the term). Slide would not go all the way forward.

Of course, that was only one gun and it was a rental. Just sayin' my experience with one.

Well thats good know.

I'd get more opinions. It was one gun, and a rental at that. Lord knows what had happened to it.

Which Kahr pistol would you like to check out? I have the PM9 and I love it. It has become the pistol that is with me more than any other. It isn't a fun range gun, but for what it is made for... IMO it can't be beat.

Looking at Kahrs website, I think it was the pm9.

The one I remember was about the same size as my glock 19 but difference in thickness was pretty considerable.

I sometimes go to honey island to shoot... you're more than welcome to give it a try and see what you think.

I use the Kahr PM 9 quite a bit and find it works very well for deep concealment. Mine has been very reliable and is accurate.

I've got a K9 and it's also a great pistol.

How much do the Kahr's sell for? My brother is looking for an inexpensive starter pistol...

http://www.budsgunshop.com is a good place to get a feel for pricing. Kahr's seem to have a good rep once their broken in but I've never shot one.

I carry a CW40 and love it. I purchased the CW model since it seemed to be moderately priced and I didn't want to spend a lot of $$ on something I may untimely not like. The PM models have a shorter barrel which may help with additional methods of concealablity. If I run across a PM model I'm considering it's purchase . My wife shoots a 380 cal now and she may want to eventually move up to a 9mm and the PM would be nice for her.

Be sure to keep Kemo, 10-8 and all of out sponsors in mind when you purchase.

FYI they are/have come out with a PM 380.

To the original poster the Cw9 can be had for about $500 out the door and is a nice little gun. The owners manual says not to consider it reliable until 250 rounds are shot in it. I bought mine from Larry at La gun and reloading who is now a site sponser.

I have a PM45 and like it very much. I sold my PPK/S and bought this to get more punch in the same size. It took some time to get the correct shooting grip because of its small size. But once I found the right one, it hits what I want to hit. I had an initial extraction issue but the factory fixed that and it cycles flawlessly now and will shoot Walmart whitebox or Blazer Brass with no complaints. The quality of the pistol seems on par with my Kimber and it's very concealable.

And you shoot that CW9 quite well.

Do a search...


I will NEVER EVER EVER own another Kahr product.

I have a Kahr CW9 and it's been a perfectly fine pistol that is rather small and lite. I paid around $450 for mine.
