Does anyone have a experience with or opinions of the Kahr CW9? I found a new one at a local shop for $379. Seems like a decent price to me. Any feedback is appreciated.

Welcome to the Forum jtmaster6,

I have owned the CW9 for over 6 months now and have no complaints. It has been 100% reliable with just over 500 rounds and several makes of ammo, including CCI Blazer and Winchester White Box. I carry the Winchester Ranger SXT 124 gr. +P+.

The one thing I did do was to polish the feed ramp and chamber after the 200 round break-in. Polishing the feed ramp definitely smoothed feeding of the first round from a topped off magazine.

Mine self-destructed within the first 25 rounds. Kahr fixed it, (took ~3 months) but all seems well now. Had a few failures to fire (click instead of bang) in the first 100 rounds after it came back, but has been fine since, got a bit over 400 rounds thru it now.
