Where have I been?

[kylen]

Not sure what rock I have been hiding under, but I had no idea Kahr Arms bought out Magnum Research in June of this year.

With that and Auto-Ordnance they are putting a pretty good group of companies under one roof.

Actually....

That's news to me, too.

 

[EdInk]

Really? It happened several months ago.

 

[Shane Tuttle]

Looks like I climbed out from under a rock, too. I didn't know the news, either.

Has Magnum Research not been doing well or did Kahr Arms merely see a good investment at the right price?

"John Risdall said Magnum Research Inc., the gun manufacturer he helped run for more than two decades, has been sold after running short of money."

Does anybody have a problem buying a Kahr considering the relationship with the Unification Church (Moonies)?

No, I certainly don't, and it's not a subject for discussion here at TFL.

How could I have missed that. I own a sub baby eagle 9mm pre-decocker. I'll have to look and see if they brought back the conversion kit to a 40 cal. Magnum Research stopped selling them a few years ago.

Arent the kahrs built on a browning type of platform?

I have no idea. I used to own a Kahr 40 and didn't like it. It was too much like a Glock, with none of the benefits.
