Here are a couple purchases I made in the past few weeks.

The MK9 came from our very own Zamboni in Florida, and he was a pleasure to deal with on the gun. I purchased some wood grips from Kahr, made a minor change to the backside so they would fit, and then found out I needed longer screws. Kahr CS was great and got the K9 screws out in a hurry.

The MK9 is a birthday gift for my father-in-law, so I was just a foster for it. It shoots very nice and it is a beauty. I think he will like it, and my son will get it back one day. I love guns as gifts.

The M&P 340 is my first revolver and VERY easy to carry. The trigger has had a little work (polish and spring) and the lock has been removed. I really like the Trijicon front sight. It shoots great, but I am really used to a semi-auto. She is a keeper.

Nice photo's. They confirm that the grip could be slimmed up quite a bit. The back strap could have a lot of the hump removed especially for folks with smaller hands or wanting max concealment.

Very nice looking, I bet he's gonna love it too.

You beat me to that gun by less than 1 hour (the MK9). I was going to buy it too. There were some wood grips for sale at the same time. I was going to buy them too. I did find another MK9 for sale and bought it so I have the gun. I ordered wood grips from Kahr and they are back ordered so I don't have them yet. I love the gun though and have shot my 200 rounds breakin. It now is my dedicated holster gun. I have a CM9 for pocket carry. The good thing about that combination is, everything is interchangable, holsters, magazines and ammo. :D

Man that's a nice looking MK9!!
I'd probably hit the floor if I got that for a present, hard not to like that.

Love the snubbie too

I was #2 in line for the wood grips. Kahr had the smooth ones in stock 3 weeks ago. I really hate to give up the gun. My hunt is on for a killer deal on an MK9 Elite.

I paid $599 for a used MK9 elite from Buds. When I got it, I couldn't find any indication that it had ever been fired. I think it must fave been a floor model to show but never fired. It had stock grips.:music:

I will give you $599.50 for it right now! That's just dirty throwing out those killer buys like that. Have you no concern for others?:mad:

oh, its been factory fired, mayber they gave it a good cleaning before shipping. . I can tell you I have a PMJ9 with over 32K rounds through it and if I told u it had less than 100 rounds through it, u could not prove me wrong. as there is just ont a worn area or bad place on this gun. Kahrs are tank guns, I have said this from the git go. U can't hurt um shootin it. U just can't. U won't live long enough to shoot out a kahr. I don't abuse my guns, but I do shoot um.. U got a good MK for that money IMO...

If u thik the gun is factory new, then indeed do the kahr lube chart thing and maby glance by the propper prepping thread to see if u missed anythig on ur pre inspection shoot. Nice gun. take care of it.

Wow that is purdy! I wish I didn't see the pics. I want it back now:(. Although, if I get around to taking some pictures of it I'll post the customized home defense shot gun that I spent the MK9 money on.:D
