Why did you buy your kahr

[ced_56]

I got mine because I went shooting with a friend and shot 5 different handguns and the Kahr was the most comfortable to shot for me. Felt the smoothest and felt the most comfortable in my hand

Had never heard of a Kahr when I handled one at the LGS several years back. Thought it had been custom made for my hand it was so comfortable (E9). Purchased that one, gave it to my son for college graduation, bought a K9 and then a T9. Every one shoots flawless and feel like they were custom made to fit just me. Notice I am not a fan of plastic? Old and set in my ways, but I have been eyeing a PM 45.

Size and simplicity.

I bought my Kahr, because I'm a sucker for a buxom blonde in a halter top. That sales girl had me wrapped around her little finger. I'd have bought a Keltec or a Jennings had she been selling them. Yes, I'm a dirty old man and not afraid to admit it.

I want one! BB in a HT (that is)

Re: Why did you buy your kahr

Concealment as per size/weight/caliber. Kahr just offers all that I need. Love my PM9, love my new PM40 even more. Magazine capacity wrt the new NY laws was also a consideration.

I have had about 30 small 9's and .380's and hope this CM9 is the pick. I carried a buddy's CM9 for about two weeks and that helped me decide on the comfort part.

Saw lot's of ads saying "Thin is in" featuring the brunette in a little black dress holding a Kahr. The thought of a .45 ACP only 1" wide with a 3.5" barrel intrigued me but I never found one in a gun store.
Years later I walked into a gun shop here in Las Vegas and found two used Kahrs for sale; P40 and P45.
Paid $475 out the door and I have that P45 on my hip now. Had lots of problems for the first 700-900 rounds but it runs as smooth as anyone could hope for after I found the problem.

Here is The Little Monster on my last trip out to the range.

We moved to Jacksonville in April of 1997 and I had my CWP by December. I carried one of those little .22LR revolvers with the 1" barrel... usually in a Velcroed change pouch in my pocket... seemed less than optimum after I got my CWP. I started carrying an Interarms Walther TPH in .22LR... about 14 ounces loaded with 6+1 Stingers, in an Uncle Mike IWB holster. I could draw and fire that one-handed because I wore large-sized untucked polos.

I must have handled a K9 in the gun store, but ordered one with night sights, getting it in March '98. It was just too heavy for my to carry wearing shorts... draw-stringed ones, so I carried the TPH for about a decade or so. I did have a few failures to fire when I shot the pistol with the carry ammo, so I wanted a centerfire pistol that wasn't too big or heavy.

When I heard about the Kahr P380's coming out, I ordered one with night sights... took 11 months! I should have gotten one and had the sights installed! Anyhow, I thought that would be perfect... 6+1 +P 90-gr Gold Dots weighing a smidgen less than the TPH!!

While waiting for the P380 I joined the P380 forum and then this one. Everyone here raved about and seemed to have a PM9, so the next time I went to a gun show I found a like NIB PM9 DLC with night sights! I pounced on it and it was like Lays potato chips... couldn't have just one!

A month or so later I got the new PM45 DLC with NS, then the P380 came in. Then I bought a Mag-na-ported P40 and then a DLC P9 off our Marketplace.

Like the K9, the mid-sized P-models are just a perfect size for me. They fit my hands perfectly and I really like the polymer's lighter weight. They are very good looking to me and are unencumbered with manual or magazine safeties... just the full-sized gun features I want... real sights, slide lock, and magazine release... all having the same manual of arms.

In trying to invent a small, compact concealed carry 9mm pistol, I think that Justin Moon hit a home run first try with the K9, but the polymers are my favorites for CCW. The P9 is 8 ounces less than the K9, which is important to me.

I bought a Shield, great gun, but too big for pocket carry. The PM9 fills the bill.

I bought my first Kahr as an upgrade from a Kel-Tec P11 which was my first carry pistol. Never been without a Kahr since.

I had kept close attention to what the handgun market had to offer, in the way of small, lightweight, and affordable CCW pistols. The CM9 fills that bill.

If you’re looking for a light little pocket rocket that won’t break the bank, and need more punch than the .380 cartridge by moving up to 9mm cartridge, the CM9 is the perfect answer.

The dot and post sights are great for quick and up-close target acquisition.

My Glock 26 was way too heavy and as much as I tried, the Shield wouldn't pocket carry well. I got the PM9 to replace my S&W 442 AirWeight.

Cause I wanted a pocket 9, and the CM9 is awesome.

I was looking for something easier to carry than a Glock 19. I love the CW9 and P9, so I bought one of each.
