    I have been told by a very close souce to crimson trace products that they are indeed having fitting problems with their unit on the polymer kahrs, We have seen gaps when installed, off center peaces that should match etc. They are now aware of this issue and they are working fevorishly on a correction. but have told my sourxce that we are looking at at least 30 days before the correct unit is now available.
    So, if u desire to buy one of these right now you are traveling at your own risk with the propper fit on your kahr. It is not the gun but the crimson trace unit.

    Not tot ell anyone what to do, but before I would buy one, I would chekck with CTC to verify that the unit you are buying is the redesigned unit to pit properly and snugly on the kahrs.

      wehave had numerous photos onh this site even of the ct two halves not mating up right and there fore when on the kahrs, it even loosk outta whack. At this time they have not got a redesigned replacement to sendto those who have the outta whack ones, but they will and they will take care of all who have this issue.s I think
      Beardog on this fourm has some phtos if he canpost them on this site for allto see what to look for.

        Damn! I just bought one for my new p380 im picking up on Monday. Got it for $136(not including rebate) at manventure.com.... picked up some 300 rounds of WWB also.

        Im new to Kahr and this forum. Ive read a bunch here.. learned a lot.. but also getting a little worried too...

        The P380 is my second firearm. It sounds like it maybe hard to top my G19.

          not sure on the P:380 if that is an issue. Is it the same model and size and the PM9 models ???

            Im glad now you mention that it maybe model specific and not for ALL "polymer Kahrs". Had me crappin in my pants almost...

            Id have to assume your original post was referring to the PM9, as you tag line states...

            lg-433 for the p380 - lg-437 for the pm9... no dimensions listed on the website...

            Looking at the P380 forum, it had several posts of good fitting CT lasers and general overall good reviews of it.

              well not really the pm9 and all the big kahrs take the same ct, model lg437, that is the uit with issues. not the P380.

                I'm not real happy with the fit on my CW45, but it seems solid and stays sighted in. Just have some gaps I don't like on the sides.

                  Hey guys, I just saw Jocko's alert post about the CTC LG-437.
                  This "GAP" problem is a ongoing issue that has been discussed here since late Feb.
                  http://kahrtalk.com/showthread.php?t=5715

                  I have a replacement laser in route, but have little faith it will fit much better. I waited till May to give CTC time to fix this issue, which I was told they did. But I believe the C.S. girl just told me what I wanted to hear. I will post when my new laser arrives and let you know how it fits.
                  Before I say anymore I want to see how my new one works, stay tuned...

                    My CTC fit perfectly on the P380. You should be fine with yours, but do check just in case.

                      My 437 on my PM9 looks very similar. Big gap on one side and smaller gap on the other. Fortunately, it's been working well so the holding power must be around the trigger guard and not where the laser mates with forward frame. It would be nice if it was a tighter fit. Please let us know how you make out with your new laserguard.

                        Good to hear someone admits somethign down there. I have been calling and sending them pictures for a while. I'm on my 3rd different LG-437 for my PM9. I'm close, but still not right. It holds zero like a champ tho!

                          Just intalled my LG437. Similar fit problem like BEARDOG but not as bad.

                          gagnejs8,
                          "I'm close, but still not right."

                          I think this is where I'm at. The fit is flush on the one side but a very ( very ) slight gap on the other. Slight enough gap that I'm asking myself if I'm being too picky. On the other hand, hey, the thing should fit without one thinking. Well, it's ok. Not perfect. Live with it. Is it me asking for perfection in a piece where close is all that should be expected? Looking forward to next month and CTCs redesign.

                            I picked mine up May 5 for my PM9. The laser was dead on right out of the box. I have not noticed any "gaps" in the fit. Hope I am one of the lucky ones.
