I can't find the difference. Please help. Also is the 2003 version special? Thanks in advance.

Elite 2003
The polished stainless steel finish and laser etching on the frame are available on all Kahr Elite 2003 pistols - the K9, MK9, K40 and the MK40. The lustrous finish complements our innovative designs and solid construction. The magazine well is beveled for easier magazine reloading. The feed ramp on the barrel is polished to a high luster to insure reliable feeding with all types of ammo. Laser engraving on the frame provides the finishing touch to the polished stainless steel - for an appearance as impressive as its capabilities

Other than the cosmetics, is the trigger polished, or tuned sweeter?

[jocko]

no the elite and standare MK kahrs are all the same internals. Kahr polishs feed ramp on all guns now. the basic difference is cosmetic..

I actually prefer the matte finish of the standard MK.
