I'm not planning a steady diet of it, I just have some Speer Gold Dot JHP's in 115 gr+P+ left over for my Glock, and they look a lot like the 124+P's

I am concerned if I get them mixed up if a big kaboom might happen.

I'm marking the +P+'s with a red marker now, but I could miss one.

I only bought the 115+P+'s because they were $22 for a box of 50

From searchs in this forum, YES +p is fine with all Kahrs. I think the common answer is, Yes, and shoot it like you stole it!

Nobody is going to tell you +P+ ammo is "safe" in any gun, Kahrs included. You shoot at your own risk. That type ammo is over the safe pressure limits for most guns. Can you fire it without any problems? Maybe or maybe not. Gun manufactures assume no liability if you shoot it and if bad things happen, it is your responsibility.
So, that being said, I would never shoot it in any of my guns.

It's been said before, if you feel like you need to use +p+ ammo to spice up your 9mm, trade it for a 40.

Whatever

I stated I already had the +P+'s , that I wasn't planning a steady diet, and would it hurt if one got mixed in since the +'s are very very small on the headstamp

Very Interesting that my OP wasn't clearer.

There is no question in the text of your OP.

I believe the replies you received were in response to the title of your thread: Is +P+ safe to use in Kahr's CW series?

the fourm guys told you is the right answers. Kahrs says no to+P+. IMO it is basically a renegade ruund with really no set limits according to Saami specs. More than likely u can shoot that ammo a d no harm will come also. Kahrs are built like a tank, but I have always felt and no offense either. that if one wants to shoot +P+ un authorized 9mm ammo because of its power, then just by a 40 cal and get the best of both worlds. Power and safety..

I would trust it in any kahr 9mm I own, but I just have no desire to shoot it. It would be ur luck, that the gun fokks up..Just sayin. U ask a decent question and one that has been aksed here many times. Just sayin

I've shot Federal 115gr +P+ out of my CW9 with no ill effects. I don't shoot it or +P on a regular basis, just enough to check for reliability.
