  • K9 slide rear dovetail version?

    So I have an older K9, dont recall when I purchased it, and was thinking of adding XS Big Dot sights. Went to XS Sights website and see that Kahr has two variations of the rear dovetail on this pistol.

    Now, to my eyes, it looks like its a cross between the old style and the new style as far as the dovetail goes. Now on the underside of the slide, there is not the dimple mentioned.
    Could there be another variation that isnt mentioned or should I go by the fact that there is not a dimple and say its the old style?

    If it matters any, the ser# AH02xx.

    Thoughts????

      If your slide has a dimple, it is the new style. If it has no dimple, it is the old style. No in between unless a garage gunsmith ruined it for you.
      Judging by today's left wing, looks like Senator Joe McCarthy was right after all.

        This is the definitive answer. Be sure you are not confusing the 'DIMPLE' with the hole for lube access. The dimple is located (if it is there at all) is right behind (to the rear of) where the striker block is pressed in by the cocking cam.
