p45 Thank you

[Grandpa Skip]

Went to range this morning and I am very happy.I have been thinking all week about the things you all told me to do.Trigger control was slow and easy,tied not to flinch.I am glad to, I almost hit my point of aim first shot.It was good that I had forgot how lowd and powerful that 45 is as I pulled my second shot low left as before.All the rest of my rnds at 7yrds were slow and easy,I was getting closer to poa each time,no failures at all.I am going to try rapid shots or double taps next,if I am successful,I will give some thought to carring.Thank you all again,very happy to be part of this forum.Man those clips are hard to load.(probably my old butt)Skip:)

Welcome, glad you like the Kahr. I have a CW9. You will carry that great size pistol. As I have aged my fingers have lost padding and it is harder to go through one or two hundred rounds. Mine has improved every time I shoot the pistol. It now has over four hundred down range.

welcome aboard. super 45 you have there. You will get better with more rounds to. Kahrs looooooong trigger takes some getting used to,but once mastered, it is a real dream gun to shoot. :cheer2:

Glad to hear we helped a bit. Just remember that you are going to a new system, and the transition will take a bit of time and plenty of ammo. I say again, welcome and you're going to love that little fire breather.

Welcome aboard! The best thing for you is range time, the more you have of it the better you will be. Sounds like you are enjoying the range time, so thats great to hear. I know I need to get back to the range this week. I can't wait, I'm taking my son and daughter!

Guys, check out the Mag UpLula magazine loader. It makes loading those things easy. Info:

maglula Ltd. - The world's #1 magazine loaders and unloaders ! (http://maglula.tripod.com/uplula.htm)

There are pictures and videos of the UpLula in use. No bruised fingers or thumbs.
Using Google, this may not be the best deal you can find:

Amazon.com: Used and New: Butler Creek Lula Universal Pistol Magazine Loader (http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B001HBHNHE/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&qid=1272869395&sr=8-1&condition=new)

It isn't the cheapest by far, but it's probably the best.

I bought two, one for the range bag and one I keep nearby. It will work with the .380, if you don't try to force the "beak" too far back between the magazine lips. I filed the sides of the beak just a tiny bit to make it work better with P380 mags.
I would give this five stars. I may eventually buy the "Baby" version for .22 up to .380.

Congrats on your new P45. I haven't carried mine in about a month and now that I have a few good gun belts I'll give it a try again. Still...next in my rotation is my, new to me, PM9. After that gets some carry time I'll move back to the P45.

Congrats on the new weapon, Keep going to the range the more you do it now the easier it is for it " to just happen" It sounds like you have a good sound fundimental start going. Have fun!!!
