MK9 G10 Grips

[Dreams_of_Steel]

Any chance of G10 grips for Kahr T models? I'd like to have some alternates for the wood grips on it now.

Well, I will be working on K series grips next. T models would be nice but I have to see how these sell. I would probably change the material since so much would be machined away. There are other materials that would be very cool and not as expensive.

Thanks for the orders guys!!

You can now order MK series G10 grips! At least I will know for sure you can order them when someone does successfully on the web sight

Here they are: https://lakelinellc.com/product/mk-series-g10-grips/

I think you will really like them.

Those grips look super nice, Al! Thank you for making this happen!

You had a big part in it too. Thanks!

Hopefully we will have some reviews soon.

Looking good, and I think the metal followers are a good idea!!!!!!!

Thanks, and thank you for your help in figuring out the fitting on the various versions of the frames.

I've been waiting years for an option outside of the Pau Ferro grips. The pattern clasps my hands with confidence as opposed to the factory grips while keeping the original thin and comfortable profile - definitely more comfortable than the thicker wood grips! The G10 fit was perfect and flush.

I've been using the wood ones for so long that I forgot what the black grips felt like...IWB carry feels right again! Thanks for the phenomenal effort - this was undeniably money well spent. Now what to do with those Ferro grips...

I had never gripped a G10 grip before starting this project. I can't describe how much more securely the hold is compared to the factory grips. Thank you for the report. I am glad you are pleased and if you do have any issues I would be happy to address them.

Awesome! Now, you just need to get the word out. I'll do my part to spread the good news, brother!

The Kahr community has needed this for a long time, and nobody would take up the torch and run with it until now.

Thanks, Al!

On a slightly related note, have you thought about manufacturing grip screws? The factory ones got awfully mangled through two different reinstalls and I had to resort to the hex screws from a Colt 380 (I coincidentally had these lying around when I ran across some people successfully using them as replacements screws).

"mangled through reinstalls".............tsk, tsk, tsk..........

I've been thinking of ordering some new grip screws myself. My understanding is that 1911 grip screw will work. Bawanna or one of the other experts might come along and confirm. There are so many choices of 1911 screws! There are some that accept both hex or slot, some just made to look cool, and I saw some the other day that claimed to be way stronger than the rest.

The screws in the photos on my website are looking a bit tired, but they've been reinstalled a whole bunch of times. But, I did not want to use anything but the standard grip screws for the photos. Some of the early prototypes did not align all that well either...

[Bawanna]

1911 grip screws are the right thread, they may be a little too long sometimes. Slim grip screws generally are a bit short as I recall but it's been a spell and you know memory and all..................

Leave me alone, those wood grips were scary!

Yes, grip screws for a 1911 fit the Kahrs. I replaced my grip screws with Torx head stainless steel screws for 1911. On the slim grips, I had to grind the threaded length back a bit. There's an endless variety of nice looking grip screws for 1911s that you can replace your Kahr slotted screws with. A search on Ebay will generally yield pages and pages of different styles in natural stainless, black, and combination finishes.
