I finally get to post here!

Ladies and gentleman, let me introduce my 'new to me' Kahr MK9.

I do have one question, it has a GCXXXX serial number - from what I can tell that could indicated it's an Elite model, is that correct?

I believe it should say elite on the slide if it is an elite

[Thunder71]

OK thanks! Either way it's such a butter smooth gun, love this thing.

Dang! Thunder is fast as lightning! I was just reading Popeye's post on the "Would you" thread and—BAMM!—here he is showing off a new gun!

That's pretty, Thunder! Now, you can start looking at some customization so that it looks like this:

[Thunder71]

Love those grips!

Nice. To my understanding there was an early GA series and the newer GC series. No others in the mix.
Minutes ago your were contemplating trading your PM9 for a K9 and now a MK9 jumps into your life. What's going on with you?

[Thunder71]

Called the local Gander Mountain and asked if they had one, they said they had a used one for a price i didn't believe.

Well, it's now mine.

Happy to report 100 rounds of 'range ammo' and 14 rounds of JHP, 0 problems.

Thing shoots oh so nice.

Man, I have a busy day at work and look at all that happens in 24 hours! Congrats T71!

Looking good sir welcome to the crowd .

You know... i think i have a holster that would fit that gun perfectly just sitting around doing nothing. LOL

That MK9 with the wood grips looks sexy. hopefully ill be able to have my mk9 look like that and aquire a K9 and have it look similar as well!.

Yeah, James still has that two tone holster molded for an MK9, like the one he did for me and my CM9, available for $75 shipped: http://kahrtalk.com/showthread.php?t=8898&highlight=MK9%2C+holster.

Thunder, you will love that holster! Not just the fit and the comfort wearing it, but also looking at it, admiring the beautiful finishing touches such as the edges, the molding around the trigger guard, the perfect hand stitching, the quality of the Herman Oak leather. And knowing how little you paid for it will really make you smile from ear to ear. You know you have to have a premium work of holster art like that to put that gorgeous MK9 in! And the 2 wide spaced snap loops will deal with the weight of that steel gun effortlessly. Go for it!

Yeah, unfortunately I'm realizing my new Galco leather holster loosened up quite a bit and oddly enough my MK9 is thinner than my PM9.

Right now it's sitting all comfy and warm in my Smartcarry however. Might have to give Garrett's a shout and talk to them about an OWB Silent Thunder for it, which I should have done in the first place. Might get the paddle mount option, being a lefty I think that would work out well, so long as it holds tight against the body.

Think twice about a paddle mount!!!

Click here to see why. 22 second video that could change your mind.

Don't like the holster from James? Don't like it two tone? Oh! That's right. You're a lefty, so his won't fit, but his turnaround is around 2 weeks. Here is mine -





For a very versatile paddle holster, I am planning to get the Stoner Paddle. Herman Oak leather, suede lined, cant adjustable 20% in either direction so you can wear it anywhere on your waist, even cross draw, and an absolutely fabulous price: $60!

[Thunder71]

Yeah, I've seen that one... could say the same about belt loops with buttons, Remora no-clip holsters, or heck - even a Smartcarry of someone knows you're wearing one.
