Interest in a Doublestack Kahr?

[Tomac]

Wasn't sure which subforum to post this in, so mods feel free to move it to wherever you feel is appropriate.

Is there any interest in a doublestack Kahr?
Kahrs are available in many different sizes but all are singlestack (which I understand as aiding concealment).
If we're talking the larger-framed Kahrs, it seems to me making one doublestack isn't going to significantly alter concealability (problematic w/large-frame pistols to begin with) but would allow it to compete directly with other doublestack pistols while offering lower weight and that great Kahr trigger.

So, good idea or should I stick my head in a woodchipper?

There's another perfectly good woodchipper ruined.....

Great suggestion, it's a nitch they haven't filled yet.
Personally, I would be open to it, but as a woman with small hands I would have to give the gun a personal "grip test". For me that would be the only "possible negative.

We've discussed this before from time to time. A lot of folks are like 'no way no how, doesn't fit their niche'. But I for one would welcome it. I'd love to have a 15+ round TP9 w/ the DLC finish and XS Big Dots. I dream about it at night. I'm dreaming about it now.

Id be very much open to some type of Kahr double stack also, but seems if they were really series about it I'd be out by now.

Naw, first they gotta addict us all to the single stack, then addict us to doubles.

If Glock can fit a single stack in their lineup kahr can do a double.

[CJB]

ok I poo-poo'ed the whole idea....

but what if Kahr made a double stack that was so small and compact it make other single stack pistols a non-contender? If they could do say.... 10 shots of 9mm or 8 shots of 45 all in a package only a little wider at the grip than the current PM series... might be worth looking into.

OTOH, I've gotten my first double stack 45, and the PM45, with its miniscule 6 shots of 45acp still has been residing in my pocket from sunup to sundown.

Bwahahahaha

Oh, I have one. It's called a Glock 19. Actually I want my Kahrs to be thin with small grips like my P9 so it's easy to carry.

Kel Tec P11, except sexy and with a nice trigger.

Compact double stack .45s I know of: G30, EAA Compact Witness, Warthog, Bersa UC45.

Thin is good. I'm still waiting for a single stack polymer HK. Lots of people make thick guns, many fewer make thin guns. If I want a double stack Kahr, I'll buy a Glock. I guess that all means I have no real use or need for a double stack Kahr.

Sccy CPX2 is a compact 10+1 9mm msrp <$300. But I'd rather have a 7+1 Kahr IMO

[chrish]

But a glock 19 still has a glock 19 trigger and a glock 19 grip. Otherwise, yea...but get rid of those 2 things and you might have something there...let the flames begin.

[Tomac]

So, something like a CW9 w/a doublestack 10rd mag to make it legal in the 10rd states w/a +2 extension mag for the sane states?

Sounds good.
