Pro Mag magazines.

[Islander]

I purchased two Pro Mag 8 round magazines to use with my K9. They were brand new in the original package. Neither one would even go in the gun. They seemed to be to big. Contacted Pro Mag, they sent me an RMA and back they went. Today, two months later, the replacements showed up. Guess what, they don't fit either. Am I missing something other then their mags being junk?

I didn't know ProMag made mags for Kahrs. Seems they do, at half the price of Kahr's. https://promagindustries.com/kahr/169-kahr-k9-p9-e9-9mm-7rd-blue-steel-magazine.html

I've generally had good luck with ProMags for 1911s and Rugers.

I wasn't aware Pro Mag even made Kahr magazines.

Seems to be the general rule shared by many with Kahrs is to stick with the factory mags.

Your K9 is obviously defective, with a poorly machined mag well. Sell it to some poor slob cheap... like me. :yo:

I ordered one a long time ago to look at. Same issue. I think it might go in a .40 Kahr though. Pro Mag might think they are the same.

Pro-mags are always the cheapest option for a reason. I have hit or miss luck with them. I now only buy promags is there is no other choice. I do have a couple of pistols where the OEM has folded, and promag is the only choice, even the ones that fit and run, do not fit as well as the originals. Spend the money and get OEM Kahr mags if possible.

Finding that out. Never again!

Over the years I have bought four ProMag magazines. One worked, sort of, and three didn't work at all.

I bought one just to try because my K9 mags had issue with FTF. So guess, same issue - ProMag didn't go into a mag well (too tight). So I have polished it, squeezed it, un-squeeezed it and somehow got it working. Still, it's not even close to the original one for fitment and ejection. Send my original mags back to Kahr and they replaced them for free. What a difference, no issues, gun feeds fine. Now ProMag is in a box with some odd gun part.

Another cheap mag to avoid is Triple K. In same class as ProMag.

Ordered three ProMag magazines for a SIG P228 when I lived in CA. Chose ProMag because their price seemed reasonable vs. SIG and the CA legislature had just passed the maximum 10 round magazine law. The magazines looked OK when I received them but the first thing that disappointed me was I couldn't load more than 12 rounds in what was supposed to be a 13 round OEM magazine. Oh well, 12 or 13 rounds what's the difference? After some use, I noticed the magazine catch slot was starting to peen outwards from recoil and drag in the magazine well. Oh well, a file will fix that. Then the adjusted magazine continued to peen. Must be some soft steel used in the magazine tube. To ProMags credit, they advertise a lifetime warranty on their magazines. I contacted them and they gave me a return authorization number so I shipped the magazine. A few weeks later, ProMag sent me a new magazine, not a refund. The new magazine is in my gun safe along with the two original old ones that are still in their packages. My SIG P228 now has OEM spare magazines which carry 13 rounds and have been working fine. Lesson learned.

Having the same problem with mags for my K9. Every aftermarket mag will not fit properly. Sad. I have one mag that came with it.
Dosen't sound like there's any options...?

If you can't stick with factory look for MecGar. They actually make mags for a lot of the big players, I think they make Sig mags, S&W, Ruger and don't remember all of them. I got two Sig mags for my future SA35 and 3 coming from MecGar. I'm gambling they are the same mag with Sigs logo on a couple.

Welcome to the forum. Look for CW9 or P9 magazines. They should fit your K9.
