Hi Guys,
New here, and have been looking for a pistol for a long time and couldn't find any double-stacks that felt right in my hand. Was in a local shop the other day and they had a used CT9 for $300. I, like many, think of Kahr as very expensive so was surprised at the price. When I held it it was love at first hold though the CT9 is bigger than I want so did my research and settled on a CW9 or CW45 - both $335 at Bud's. Would prefer the 45 other than ammo cost. I tried a 9 and 45 the other day in a gun shop and noticed the 9's trigger broke way back while the 45 broke significantly earlier. I know Kahrs have an intentional long trigger pull, but the 9 seemed really long. Is this common from model to model or gun to gun? Do I need to try several until I find one I like?
Thanks,
Rick
