    So, Congrats, but...

    Hang on tight Daddy, it's a heck of a ride.

    Will watch with interest on rod development.
    Spoken like a dad who has been there.

    I have 3, 19 to 26, daughter in the middle married last summer, other two still living at home. I sometimes wonder what it's like to be an empty nester but it never last for long, kind of nice to have a couple other guys to absorb some of the nagging.

      I would be interested in stainless or aluminum for my K9 and P380. Nice work. Thanks.

        My custom guide rods!

        Thanks all for the fatherly encouragement! It is kind of odd being a 40 year old new dad, but I figure it will keep me younger longer.

        Not critical, but it is helpful to know which Kahr you have if you are interested in a guide rod. Thanks!

          "...Not critical, but it is helpful to know which Kahr you have if you are interested in a guide rod. Thanks "


          Oh? That matters?

          For me a K9, a CW40 and my P380. Always interested in whatever your doing, so post when you can Dad.
          I was once asked if I was "a paranoid for carrying my Kahr".
          "Nope" I said, "just prepared".
          " prepared for what" he asked?
          "more stuff than you are"
          God Bless our Troups!

              Tungsten for a p380 would be awesome.

                  plus one for a stainless for my cw45. I`ll be taking it apart this afternoon to look at a possible chambering issue. i`ll get some measurements for you then.

                    took the gun apart and found no issues (whew). just in case you still need them, here`s the numbers for my cw45;
                    overall length: 2.879 in.
                    shaft dia.: .299
                    "head" dia.: .388
                    thickness: .059

                        My custom guide rods!

                        Nothing yet. Work has been extra busy the last couple of months. My customer service guy is out with a back injury, so I've been doing his job and not much of mine. Anyway, that definitely does not leave time for the fun stuff.

                            would love an aluminum one for a CW40, when you get around to selling these that is

                              Noted crackeyes. Thanks for your interest!

                              I still plan to do all these guide rods (and magazine baseplates), but I am just a bit time challenged now. We are hiring a full time customer service rep now to take some load off me so I can spend more time engineering (and these side projects too).
