There have been a couple of threads about specific Kahrs lately. Why not something more general?
Thanks to everyone who helped with ideas on my search for a pocket 45acp pistol. The Kahr CM45 seemed like the best choice for me. It's the smallest and lightest and I might actually carry it.
Today I picked it up from my FFL. I already have a PM9, PM40, and MK40. I like the triggers, I like the sights, the others have been reliable, they fit in my pockets, I can shoot them decently, etc.
I got the CM45 used for $401.43 OTD. It would say it was shot and carried "some" (not just barely, but not a lot). It came with a flush mag and extended mag. It was bone dry and dirty and a bit challenging to rack. Now it's clean and lubed and racks fine. Everything looks good and it feeds rounds fine. I already have a range trip scheduled with friends tomorrow and look forward to trying it out. The 9's and 40's are roughly the same size. This one is a bit larger. It's a good fit for larger coat pockets or cargo pockets that smaller pistols would get turned around in. I have XXL hands and I can get my full pinky on the flush grip.
So do you hate Kahrs, or love Kahrs, or are they just kinda meh? Do you have great Kahr gear, pics, stories, opinions, or prophecies?
Have fun with the poll. I'll post something tomorrow about how the CM45 shoots. (Probably a lot like the other ones.)
