New Guy, New Gun.

Welcome aboard, and congrats on your purchase and weight reduction. I'm in the same wieght camp as you. I carry a CW40 and I love it. I carried before (another .40) but I never felt as confident as I have with my Kahr. Take your time and break it in. Use the cleaning directions that are posted here and everything will work as it should. Please update us with a range report!

Welcome to Kahrtalk and congrats on a wise choice for CCW. I have several Crossbreed holsters and they do indeed work well. Dusty

well its in!!!! i get to go it tonight. hopefully i can break it down and run it through the ringer tonight. I still have to make a decision on my holster.....whats the best place for mags? everything i find is around 40.00 shipped???

[jocko]

unfortunately kahr mags are not cheap and ur price of $40 is about the norm. Stick with kahr mags though.

But before buying alot of extra stuff, mags, holsters etc, give the gun a good work out to confirm it is totally reliable and the gun you want to.

[jshull]

thats a very good peice of advice. I figure saturday or sunday I will throw the 200 rounds break in down the pipe. if i have no problems then i plan to move on with the plan.....let hope no problems, but if there is I am sure kahr would take care of it. if not they will get the slide for nightsites asap.

Congrats on the new gun the CW9 is a great carry weapon and a real fine shooter. Holes where you want holes to ne made.

The ace is a pretty good little hoster but is loose. I am of the school good guns deserve good holsters........

Crossbreeds are good holsters, i own one
This guy makes a good one too...... inexpensive and high quality, I have one
another one I own that is a very good choice.

One of our guys does nice work....I have one from him too

Good luck with the new weapon. Always Carry Never Tell

Welcome to the asylum, I see you've met some of the inmates, no worries though as most play nice. As to the holster bit, I have and use the Ace Case, while it is a loose holster, your belt will fix that. I like the thing, and it works well for me. Just watch the sweat through if you're like me and sweat something fierce, especially in the summer. Sorry for the delay, I'm at work and don't get much free time.

well got my pistol tonight. just spent the last hour racking slide, clean, lube, install Steve Bedair Stainless Guide rod, rack slide somemore, take apart mag, clean ect....now I am ready for some range time. hopefully saturday I will get to send a couple hundred down the range. i must say this thing feels great points so natural. I hope it prints good.
On a side note I was kinda angry when I opened the box. nice pistol all paperwork, cheap chinese trigger lock, I mean cumon, I am not gonna use it anyway but they an proud american company, could keep all peices here.....just seems kinda jankity.....

Jankity??? Thats a new word for the day with kind of a nice ring to it.

Can you use it in a sentence.

I was planning to get lots of stuff done today but I felt kind of jankity, so I just laid around all day.

Sounds like you done all the right stuff. Hope that new baby runs real well for ya. Range report when it happens.

Well whatdayaknow. Jankity is an actual slang word that's in the Urban Dictionary. Hmm.. Now I feel old and uncool for not knowing the latest hip lingo.

JS, don't forget that range report once you get a chance to take out your new Kahr.

[kramm]

Welcome to the forum. Best of luck with your new pistol.

[jshull]

glad I could get your vocabulary updated some. on a side not that slide sure is stiff, my forearms actually hurt today from racking that thing 500 times. I just relized today that Durham Concealed Technology is from here in missouri. I think I am gonna give thim a shot, I will update when It arrives....
