I need an IWB for Kahr T9

[GVMan]

I have a Kahr T9 that has performed flawlessly after the 200 round break in period where the biggest problem was that the slide would not go completely into battery after sling shotting the slide. I eventually figured out that if I just used the slide release the round chambered every time. Now it works either way! I was going to sell it but I put a few rounds through it today and realized that I still really like it! It is a nice slim size for a gun with a 4 inch barrel.

My biggest complaint is the lack of after market accessories available for the T9, like holsters and laser grips.

Does anyone know of an IWB holster that would work for the T9?

check out this website here. i bought one of these, the hidden iwb companion, for my xd service model, which is great for many reasons but one is the fact that it works for both the xd sc and the service. it is secure. wears good, and is very concealable. they are thin but they are sturdy and the don't collapse when the gun is drawn. plus they have a life time warranty. the guy that makes them told me that "if you run over it with a car, just send me the remains and i will send you another one." there is a list that has the guns that the holsters are made for, i don't see the one that you are wanting one for on there but maybe one of the other kahr models on there will work, there is contact info on the website drop them a line and see what he can do for you. i want one for my kahr k-40 next and i will definetly buy another one.

If you like leather, I recommend Andrews Leather. The McDaniel II is a very good IWB holster. I have one for my P9.

Another excellent IWB is the AKJ Concealco. I much prefer them with the sweat sheild option.

Meanwhile, I've been looking for a T9 for my wife and if, for some reason, you happen to change your mind and decide to sell (or trade) it, please let me know. I could fling a Springfield Loaded V-12 (ported, plus a spare SA non-ported barrel) or a Smith 66-6 Hi-Viz your way. Or even money.

That seems to be a fairly common issue with Kahrs. My P9 has been back to Kahr and still doesn't always go into battery when I drop the slide. But once the slide is closed (by hitting the back of it with my palm), it cycles fine while shooting.

I carry it in a Milt Sparks Heritage IWB holster.

I haven't called Concealco yet. They don't list the T9, but I am thinking that if their P9 holster is open ended then the T9 might fit. Does anyone know if there is any difference in the profile of these two Kahrs other than the slide being a bit longer on the T9?

I sent an outline of the T9 to Robert Mika of Mika's Holsters. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Concealco is pretty flexible and can do some specials, although now that he's gotten so busy it may not be as easy.
It won't hurt to ask.

FIST makes excellent kydex IWB holsters for Kahr's.

If you're looking for top quality and are willing to wait 6 months, a Milt Sparks leather IWB will fit like an old shoe and look like a million bucks.

I did call Milt Sparks and they do not make a holster for the T9.

Darn it, they do have some nice holsters!

I carry my CW9 in a sidekick size 12 IWB, with a lil custom stitching.

but i like it best in a cheap gunmate nylon pancake.

its great how these Kahrs just dissapear on ya, n wonderful to carry.

Strange, never have heard of the steel frame guns having problems,, my T9 has run full tilt boogie from the box , never has missed a beat,, now on the other hand the Pm9 has caused a few problems..

For holsters I like the High Noon stuff for medium price outfits and the Rosen and Kramer stuff for afew dollars more,,,,,,due a net search and it will give you more then you know what to do with..

Blade-Tech

I have a verity of different holsters for my K9. I seem to have settled on a Blade-Tech IWB as the one I use most often. My second favorite is an Alessi IWB.
