Howdy, Folks

[white avenger]

I'm new here, obviously, but way old to guns in general and shooting. I own quite a few firearms, including those inherited from my father and the ones that I have been accumulating since returning home from the Navy in 1972, but only recently bought my first Kahr, a CW45, that I really love and, just by happy coincidence, will use the same magazines as my Colt Light Weight Commander.

I'm looking forward to being here, and hope that I will be able to contribute some small amount to an occasional thread.

Thanks for having me.

You may board, ah Navy talk. This is a great forum with guys that have vast knowledge on Kahr pistols. I've never shot a CW45 but I hear their pretty nice.

Rome? Georgia? Which is it?

Feel free to just jump on in off the high board the waters a might chilly this time of year but you'll get used to it.

Plenty of room for a former Navy man from Georgia or Rome or wherever.

Having a kahr size gun that will share mags with a 1911 is truly a sweet thing. My PM45 runs fine with Wilson mags too.

This may be redundant but here goes:

Welcome to the Kahrtalk forum supported by Kahr Arms.
Here are a few essential links and things to do BEFORE you take your new pistol to the range, and ESPECIALLY BEFORE taking it apart and trying to re-assemble it! The Kahr is a different design… 6-7 unique patents cover the Kahrs. I’m not trying to imply that you don’t know anything about guns, but many don’t know anything about the Kahrs and some of the things you can do to damage or cause malfunctions of your new, or new-to-you Kahr pistol.
First, if you don’t have a manual, yet, or one didn’t come with your pistol, you can download the pdf file here:

Impatient? Watch one of these videos FIRST! These videos can point out possible problem areas and emphasize correct procedures!

There are many links on fixing problems listed in several places… under the New Member or Kahr Tech sub-forums.
A very handy one is the Kahr Lube Diagram:

Many of your questions can be answered in these areas and you can learn how your Kahr works and not damage it with improper handling.

There are many helpful members here most of the time who might be able to help you, but as anywhere, there are many opinions and not all are correct. Be mindful of this before doing anything drastic to modify your pistol!
