    Handgun Online dealers

    +1 for grabagun.com Cheapest I've seen for just about anything. I bought my Kahr K9 Elite a month ago from them for 700 including shipping, $30 cheaper than anyone else who had it in stock. A spare mag for the wife's PPS is on the way- again, cheaper than anywhere else, and shipping is...

    $700 Glocks and XDs??? Let the post election price gouging begin!

    I walked into the local Gander's here in Minnesota and saw in their used case a Kahr CW9 for- get this- $599! :what: USED. And this was PRE-ELECTION (about a month ago). I strolled over to the new firearms section and saw that a NIB CW9 was listed for $549. (?) Both are outrageously...

    Should USE of a weapon in a crime constitute a higher penalty?

    Tcruse is right- Navy's example constitutes two different crimes: theft and robbery. They are punished differently.

    Would you buy a CC gun without shooting it first?

    I did just that last Thursday. After exhaustive research, I bought a Kahr K9 that I intend to use for my edc. I was unable to shoot one before I bought it. However, I was able to hold (and shoot) its closest cousin, the P9, specifically, to get a feel for its size and the unique Kahr...

    At what point does a handgun become "too heavy"?

    If you're not gonna carry it... For a range gun, it's not much of an issue, except as 56 said, keeping it steady, but even then, the CZ doesn't come close to a super-heavy handgun. It's not a full sized Desert Eagle or a Super Redhawk. Even those are reasonably shootable. Heavier guns are...

    Anything better for me than a Kahr K9?

    Well, I'v gone and done it! I ordered a brand new K9 tonight. It should arrive at my FFL in a couple of days. Total price including shipping was under $700 (Elite 2003). I am SUPER EXCITED :D Thanks for all the advice friends! tek610

    Anything better for me than a Kahr K9?

    After shooting a P9, I'm sure I'll end up with both, but to start, I'm going with a K9. truly Man's best friend :) Within 30 days, I'll have one on my Beltman belt. Posted from Thehighroad.org App for Android

    Anything better for me than a Kahr K9?

    Update: I just returned from the range where my wife and I broke the cherry on our new PPS, and I also rented a Kahr P9 (they didn't have a K9 for rent or for sale). Man- I loved it. It fit my hands well, wasn't too snappy, and that trigger- smooth with a surprise break- just as everyone has...

    Boberg XR9-S

    True! It's called the Coonan. I love their slogan- "Looking for your first gun? This isn't it."

    Boberg XR9-S

    I have just now discovered that this gun exists, when it was introduced to me on another thread as a possible Kahr alternative. I'm not interested (yet), because of the price, wait list, and new (unproven) design. BUT- I think it's cool that such innovation is happening in my neck of the woods...

    Anything better for me than a Kahr K9?

    USP- that's a fine looking collection! I was born and raised in NOVA. Might have to look you up next time I visit! I considered the T9, but I think the K9 is that perfect compromise of concealability and shootability. T9- just a bit big, MK9- just a bit small...

    Anything better for me than a Kahr K9?

    That's true- I understand that. I guess my point was, I like the consistent trigger pull, and would prefer it over DA/SA.. Thanks for the clarification!

    Anything better for me than a Kahr K9?

    Thanks friends! Still researching (until I have the money to drop- hopefully within the next month). I figure if I have enough to buy the pricey Kahr, I'll have enough to buy most alternatives if I change my mind. The Smith 3953 is intriguing. How is the trigger on those? If I could...
