  • WTB Kahr E9 Grips

    Looking for a set of E9 hard plastic grips.

    Do those even exist? Never heard of hard plastic on a Kahr. Polymer and wood are all I've ever seen.
    Judging by today's left wing, looks like Senator Joe McCarthy was right after all.

      What do you have on your E9 right now ... if you don't mind my asking?

        Don't have an E9 but heard that they had grips like the MK9 and wanted to get a set for my K9.

          Since Hogue made some of the grips on Kahrs, maybe the E9 grips are nylon instead of hard plastic. Anyway they are like the ones on the MK9 and are not soft like the rubber grips.

            Hogue does make the Kahr grips. They are made of a dense but soft-to-the-touch polymer. K9 grips should fit your E9.

              Yup the early K's had a soft rubber grip which many find much more preferable. I know I like them better.

              Any early K grips should fit your E.

                Had to add to this post that I discovered my error concerning alternative hard nylon grips that were available in Kahr's early days. I found them listed in the parts portion of the 2001 P9 manual. This manual served for several models including the E9. Still, I've never seen them in person or even discussed... until now.

                  Do the later K9s have harder grips than the earlier ones?

                    I have an older model MK9 and E9, and the grips on them are pretty much identical except that the E9 grips are slightly longer. The older models have a molded rubber which is more comfortable than the plastic ones that the later model MK9s and K9s have. However, I'm not absolutely sure but I think I read somewhere on here once upon a time that there has been a slight change in the grip and that the older grips will not fit on the newer models.

                      Here's a set of poylmer / plastic grips off of a E9 that I did for the wife's K9 a long time ago.
                      She went back to the rubber grips
                      I'd like to find another set that I could try to checker

                        The early MK9 grips (GA series) are different from the later series but I thought all the K9s and E9s would take the same grips - could be wrong about that though.

                          Would you be interested in parting with your E9 grips? I have some K9 rubber grips for trading or could buy them. Let me know, thanks.
