Does Kahr suck that bad??

[340pd]

Stupid question. Yes there are a lot of "internet problems" with Kahr handguns. The same can be found with a lot of other manufacturers, i.e. Kimber.

If your LCP functions with a variety of ammo, why change from what works for you? Personally, I think it does make some sense to work within one platform for carry guns. I believe that is what makes the 1911 or Glock platform so desirable as personal defense guns.

agreed the internet is full of it.... people use google to obtain information and without further research consider it fact, I mean after all they googled it, it must be so.. !!! I'll keep elsie for the pocket from a practical standpoint, but unfortunately glock doesn't make a single stack 9 and I want something thinner then my glocks for iwb, while my 26,27 or even my 19 isn't a bear to carry iwb it sometimes just won't fit the needs and I'm more comfortable with a 9 as SD though don't feel a 380 isn't as capable either, ESPECIALLY with the new Lehigh X treme bullets, there's nothing to joke about with them bad boys.. I cycled only 3 so far through elsie with no prob...

even though I can open carry here I feel that to be a bit awkward..

EDIT: oh and while I'm at it and full of coffee let me just add that statistically none of us here on this forum will probably ever have to use a gun in SD, period....
(I probably got the statistics off google sometime ago )

Dang, how did you manage that? Is it a 21? Gen 3 or 4? The violets promoted you didnt they.

No promotion for me, what are you thinking. They just assigned one of the old 21's, yes they are all Gen 3. I have all the spares locked up anyhow. It's dual purpose really and makes sense, surprised they went for it. Gives me something to tear apart and stay familiar, I'm working on the hanging upside down blindfolded method and the hard part is getting hung upside down.
I also have it and 3 loaded mags at my desk(not sure they are aware of the mags) in case I'm working on an officers gun and they get a call, they can just grab mine and go.
Still won't let me bring my own personal weapon in and lock it up like I did for 16 years. Brilliant. They also don't know about the ankle rig, shhhhh!

[TheLastDaze]

Reprobate? Is Jocko back? Or is he talking about Muggsy?


I DIDN'T DO IT!!!

LOL, you're guilty as charge sir....

They also don't know about the ankle rig, shhhhh!

DID YOU HEAR THAT !!!! ANKLE RIG !!!

that should help you out a bit.... love the blindfold action, I'll have to give that a try

[yqtszhj]

... They also don't know about the ankle rig, shhhhh!

Here's a scary thought, from what you described if the violets start "feeling up" your leg you got bigger problems and it ain't Mrs. B. either.

[Bawanna]

There's only one violet in the whole herd that wouldn't bother me feeling up my leg and she's my ally and pal.

The rest I would ask them to hand me the gun and I'd shoot myself in the face.

Think thick, heavy, unpleasant sows with not fully functioning brains.

Everyone here except the brass knows about and is perfectly fine with the ankle rig. The officers even submitted a memo indicating they were completely comfortable in my campaign to wear my 1911 on my hip like a man in the office. Brass just is liability overwrought ya know.

Muggsy buys all Defective Kahr pistols!
I pay $10 more than what muggy offers, however.
Jocko, Has left the building on his Iron Steed and likely not coming back anytime soon.....

Have you considered a S&W Shield. A bit bigger than a Kahr CM/PM9 series but close, somewhat Glock like with respect to trigger, and totally dependable by all counts. I would say my Shield gets the most carry time of all my guns.

[TheLastDaze]

Yeah I don't know what it is but I've never warmed up to s&w auto's, love the revolvers though have two old pinned and recessed. Maybe I need to give it another look, I'll check one out next time at the gun store..

[gb6491]

Nice photo 340pd. It reminded me that I've a Shield stashed in the safe. It's been awhile since I've had it out...might have to take it plinking soon.
FWIW, I find the Shield is closer in size to the P/CW9 than the PM/CM9.
