T40

[jeepster09]

My holsters are open ended now, just hoping to save some money by being able to re use one of them IF I GET A T40

[jlottmc]

Those should be pretty good to go.

[Kahrdriver64]

Since the belt is a major part of the retention in those IWB's you should be good to go. You may want to rotate the 1911 in just to keep the leather from collapsing over time. I picked up a LH IWB for a 1911 used and it does ok with my T40. Not glove tight, but ok for casual carrying.

[JFootin]

Isn't it possible to wet and remold a 1911 holster to fit the T40 more exactly? Surely, James Dean or someone else experienced with leather holster making can chime in.

[Bawanna]

I don't think he's giving up his 1911's, he's hoping to multi task his holsters. I believe they will work but I got nothing to back that up with.

Kahrdriver64 sort of backs it up so there's hope.

Heck yeah jeepster! Good for you dude. I just love a man (well not in any mano mano way you understand) that mans up and does what he wants.

Unlike my sorry driveling yes dear if you say so self.

Well I did recently impersonate a man up, more on that wonderful thing in a few days I hope.

Mandatory pictures of course and before and after the paint shop and porting if it ain't too much trouble and your ok with that of course.

Excellent. I ordered my wife's T9 on Saturday and it arrived at my FFL Friday.

4 extra T9 mags from Midway arrived today.

[Kahrdriver64]

Excellent for you and Bronco!

I would be curious how the new ones shoot out of the box. I bought my T used off gbroker and it had some issues when I got it. It stove piped alot and spent brass came out with a big dent in the side. I'm sure that's why the previous owner sold it. Getting it tuned up is still a work in progress for me.

the dented cases are considered normal by kahr, they tell one tha tin the manual

That's interesting since the K's do not do it. So far I've taken one coil off the extractor spring and stopped the stove pipes. I did notice a while back the Cylinder and Slide include extractor tensioning as part of the package for the Kahrs. I wonder what that entails.

I posted a range writeup on the wife's new T9, no failures/jams/stovepipes in the first 200 rounds. After the 110 round mark the mags were not locking the slide back consistently on the last round but the gun functioned fine. I'm planning on feeding it another 200-300 rounds this weekend.

I picked up 4000 rounds of 9mm yesterday, 3000 S&B 115 gr and 1000 Aguila 124 gr. I know the S&B works great in all my 9mm, and the Aguila is plentiful so I got a case to see how it runs.

Well not real impressed with Bud's......been a week now and still have not shipped! Called them and was told "we ship thousands of gun's" we will notify you when it ships. This will be last gun I buy from them; should'a known better, they screwed up my last order from them too

I've had it both ways with them too. Couple times really fast (usually old surplus stuff), couple times it took a long time to get out the door.
I think the gun and ammo hoarding is well under way and everyone is struggling to keep up.
Course this doesn't help even a little bit when a person is waiting for their next toy.
I've recently realized that business doesn't care about impatience or your love or your suffering while waiting. That doesn't help much either.

that the rounds arenot powerful enough to work the slide lock yet, as maybe the recoil sprigns hav enot taken their designed set.

A good way to test that out is to shoot some defense ammo which is hotter than fmj ammo. If it locks it back OK then consider the gun just needed more rounds out of it.

Load two rounds fire and see it if locks, do it again and again and again.

My bet it is just strong recoil springs not set in yet..
