  • Finally!!

    Just got to pick up my new P40 from the GS today! Already put 200 rounds down range, so it's a touch dirty in the pictures. I was too excited to wait until I actually cleaned it. Here's an album because I'm not sure how to add them all here.

    Nice pistol. I like the .40 caliber too. Although Kahr unlike most companies, doesn't give you an extra round over what the .45 holds. I do have the 7 round mags, that work, unlike my CW45 extended mags.I think like a lot of others, I use the 6 round for carry, 7 round as a spare. I got the ported barel for the CW40, and still need to test that out further. Got too much going on and can't get to the range. That's sad, specially when I used to be able to go out back and just shoot. Had a nice little berm built up and everything. Then the town annexed the farm and limited gun use to shotguns. For varmint contol if you have more than 5 acres. I still stand inside the barn and shoot pistols out the back door, hopefully that muffles the sound so people have no idea what I'm shooting, and do it during the week when most folks are working. Sometimes I take a shotgun and shoot a shot out of that so I can claim I was shooting that if the cops show up. I don't like shooting there much anymore though, don't like breaking the law. But to test out a new pistol or magazine, I don't see the harm. I do need to move the berm closer to the barn, so I don't have to shoot so far.

      Nice pistol, Jason. I just shot mine today... along with the XDS45 rental. I got some of the 9mm metal base plates for the 6-round mags. I hate the "flush" polymer ones. I had to add an O-ring to keep from getting pinched during firing. There's just a bit too much of a gap between the metal base and the grip. The metal base plate is a bit more concealable for me.

      Here's my lengthy "blog" on my P40:

      This may be where I get into the O-ring use:
