Was at a gunshow at the end of December and smagged this CW45 off an old man and his wife. They had come to the show to get a .38 snub cause they coule not rack the slide on he .45 and didn't like the recoil. Got them down from 3 bills to 275. They just had to get what they paid for the .38.

I have had the gun out to shoot a couple of thimes. Didn't clean it or anything. It appeared very clean and unfired, but the old guy said he had shot it. Worked great for me. I ain't fired but a few mags through it. So far, no problems. Fired both Rem 230 gr. FMJs and some old Golden Sabfres that I had. Shoots right to POA at 7 yards. No feed problems at all.

And a test target with the first mag I fired using 230 gr. Rem FMJs. at 7 yds. Shot low off the target on the first one with a regular hold, so I had to put the sights over the target center. Target is a Pancho El Cheapo 15" pizza box in the back yard witha 2" square piece of tape for a center mark. After adjusting for the low shot the second 2 went to left. Had to hold the front sight to the right of the rear notch to get on center. So the rear sight will have to be moved to the right a bit. The rest of the riounds went right into thePOA. Worked it up till I got 2 on centeer. Anyway, sights are o.k. for compat range for now.

You mentioned "Old Guy" twice. Why?

Otherwise, you got a super good deal, and fine weapon. Take some sandpaper to the sharp edges on the grip. I've done all three of mine that way.

Good buy on ghe cw45. Mine runs real well. Try shooting a few more boxes of ammo and do some dry fire practice to get used to the long but smooth kahr trigger and you might find that you wont need to adjust the sights.

Welcome to the forum.
