LOL, I missed that too. Oh well, my 2 cents worth I already typed!
This thread is worthless with pics!
I admit that I am a total fanboy of Kahr Arms.
I've owned a K40, beautiful workmanship and smooth as a swiss watch. Only hiccup was that the slide lock broke and the slide would lock back prematurely, but after installing a new one, it function flawlessly.
The next one was the PM9 in the photo. What's not to love about 8 rounds of 9mm in the pocket slimmer than an LCR and as light. Functioned perfectly from day one and easy to control and avery accurate.
Of course the trigger is what everyone complains about, long and no wall, but it's like the smoothest DA revolver pull I've ever felt, so I have no trouble with it.
The last one and my most favorite is the Kahr P45. It's so slim and compact and yet holds 7 rounds of .45 acp. Shoots like a dream with minimal .45 recoil, and I can shoot ragged holes all day with it! It did start to have some functioning problems, with light strikes and on the day that I had to qualify with it, it malfunctioned three times including one Type III malfunction double feed during a timed relay. But managed to do the drill and get back on target and shoot 100% with the last three rounds.
Found that there is a cleaning hole in the underside of the slide where you can use gun scrubber to blast out the striker channel to clean out all the gunk, and boy, did a bunch of black debris flush out. Now it is running flawlessly again with any type of ammo. But the tolerances are very tight, so you have to try the ammo out to make sure that the OAL is correct and timing is functioning. Love this pistol and it rides all day IWB
The PM9 and P45 are my EDC's.
I did smooth off the funky checkerboard rasp stuff on the front and back and straps and now the grip feels so good. I'm sure that the recoil control is much better because the grip is so slim that I can really grasp much tighter than I can with my glocks.
You will also notice that the Kahr is inserted with a MecGar Colt 6 round magazine that rides flush to the bottom of the Kahr grip. Most 1911 magazines work in the Kahr with none to some modifications. Slide lock is not always guaranteed on the last round, but a good trade off IMHO.
I thought about chopping the P45 to a PM 45 covert, but realized that I would not gain much between the chop job and the p45 with the flush magazine, maybe 1/4" max. So keeping it like stock.
