A Kahr in .22lr

[Kahrdog]

I'll take one!

Make mine PM9 size, P380 thin. Single stack is fine.

I'd be interested in a .22 conversion for the MK9

[SkeletonSlinky]

Just did a search on .22 conversion kits and found this thread...I'd love to have a .22 conversion kit for my pm9/cm9! I have one for my Beretta 92FS and it works great! Has there been any headway since 2009?

I have and have carried the Walther TPH quite a bit. Never had any problems with it, small, slim, light and very accurate. About the size you are looking for.

I'd prefer a stand alone .22LR over a conversion kit.

As long as we're longing for a Kahr .22, I'll long for one the same size as the K9. However, I worry about reliability. Given the problems Kahr has had with the .380 and the inconsistent nature of .22 ammo, I worry a .22 cal. Kahr may not be a match made in heaven.

I was considering the purchase of a new .22 a couple weeks ago and really longed for the Beretta 87B, but the $700 price tag was a deal breaker.

Ruger makes some pretty fantastic 22 pistols, and has for a very long time. IMHO Kahr would be well advised to stay out of this potential quagmire.

probably never gonna happen, not sure I would plumb down 500-800 bucks for a 22 kahr either, when Ican buy my Ruger MK3 and shoot circles around any kahr 22. Not sure kahr is in for the family fun guns either. One might say well it is a good trainer for the bigger bore kahrs, and that might be so, but again cost would be a factor for kahr, sales would certainly be at the top of their list and I think sales would totally suck, about like the T9s that are super guns, just poor sellers. Let alone when they know they have 2 more great models tha they canintorduce and sell the hell out of. CM40 AND CM45. I bought a glock 22 conversion kit for my G19 and to be honest, I just never shoot it. NOt a waste of money but close to it for me anyhow.

Longtitude zero hit the nail right on the ol head...

just because the hole is the size of a 22 over a 9 or 40 or 45, doesn't mean it is going to be lower in price to make. might even be more difficult trying to make a 22 gun into what was designed for a 9mm on up..

I'm happy with kahr right where they are, I think their over allquality is really gaiing alot of speed, were not really having the issues with kahrs that we4 did a year ago, maybe that is a combination f this great forum helping new owners through their break in period but some credit has to go to kahr quality to They have to make a lemon every once in awhile..

I would love a 22LR conversion to my PM9. I tend to collect conversion units. They may training newbies better.

And since 22's fire from a blowback set up and not a locked breech they are VERY sensitive to ammo power, recoil spring tension, drag in the mechanical functions etc.

[jocko]

humm, never thoght of that even, ..

Don't get the Beretta. I have one, and it's not reliable.

A Beretta Neos U22 is an excellent gun. Mine has fired 1100 rounds without any failures. Good value at $239-$249 in 6" barell model.

[CJB]

The little tip up barrel Beretta is a reliable and fits in the pocket... very tiny gun.

I'm trying to think of ANY double column .22's out there. Maybe a brain fart, but I cant think if any.

I'd rather see a 10mm on the PM45 chassis, or .357Sig on the PM40 chassis.

[bigbob68]

The little Phoenix is a best buy IMO. If Kel Tec made a .22LR I think they would sell the heck outta them, but if Kahr built a nice .22LR, NOW YOUR TALKING. I would love a nice semi auto .22LR that is plastic and pocketable. I'm on board!

[slowpoke]

Put me on the list for a Kahr 22...
