Added a Kahr T9 Elite to my layaway today.

That's the full size target version, right? A single stack 9mm target pistol with a dao trigger. For whatever reason it's one of those pistols that I always thought would be cool to have.

You'll have to let us know how it shoots.

Ever since Justin Moon showed me the first one at the Dallas Shot Show in the early 90’s I thought I’d own one for sure. It just seems that when a steel frame Kahr is within reach there is something else I want more.

Congrats, I hope it serves you well.

They certainly are beautiful guns, but kinda pricey for my limited budget. All my Kahrs are of the Tupperware variety.

I had a T9 as well as several other Kahr models, both steel and polymer. The T9 probably had the smoothest trigger. Holsters are hard to find for that model and I ended up using a K9 holster with the muzzle end opened up to allow it to poke through a bit. The T9 offers a comfortable full grip, but in my case the trigger guard rubbed my middle finger so I sold the gun. I actually enjoyed shooting the TP9 more than the T9 because of this irritation. I'm the only person I've seen on any forum that had this problem so I'd assume it's a personal thing. My K9 doesn't bother me. go figure.

Enjoy your "new" T9. I'm sure you'll like it. The T9 is fairly hard to find and the Elite model even more so. A real collectable.

Current list price on T9 Elite is over $1000---have a K9 (carbon steel )---over 25 thou rds without a hitch---great gun---shoots as well as when it was new.

The newest t9 elite version is on my want list.

I have had great luck with kahrs.

Me too! I would eventually like to get a CW380 to go with my CM9.

Love the Kahr's. Have two CM9's, a CW380 and P380. Congrats to the OP. The T9 Elite is, well, Elite!

I got a Kahr K9 from a fellow member a while back and have really been impressed with it. It's a much better pistol than I ever imagined. I found some Crimson Trace grips for it on ebay.

I bought the CT380 because the CW380 was a bit too small for my hands. Of course it is almost as high & long as the CW9, but is very thin (which I like).

Since I have really small hands (think having to buy Kid's gloves because a Men's small is too big), is what attracted me to the CW380. I had a Colt Government .380 which was a decent size but I sold it and got a Colt Mustang when they came out! The perfect size for me!

Nice gun, just recently saw a Colt for sale at PA for $399. Normally would have been tempted but 380 ammo is non-existent.

That's a great price on a Mustang, provided of course it's in decent shape.

I stocked up on .380 ammo some years back after the shortage. Now what I really need are more .380 guns to use it in!

I think you’ll really like it. I like the trigger better than other striker fired guns and they fit my small hands well.

If you like the kahr trigger then you should like the gun. I've had 2 of the plastic variety and had kind of a bad run with them. Sold one and the other isn't ever used, it hasn't been reliable.
Good luck, hope you like yours

I have an MK9. I don't get why everybody seems to hate Kahr triggers so much.

The T9 is gorgeous. I wouldn't mind owning one someday.

One is on my list once things improve.
