K and MKpistols

[greg_r]

My preference in cartridges is the 38 special, 45 acp, and 380 acp. I got on a polymer kick a few years back and through trial and error found that I believe the Ruger LCR and Kahr polymer framed pistols pistols were the best handguns for carry made. I chose the Ruger LCRX, both a 1 7/8 inch and a 3 inch version. 38 spl of course and the Kahr CT380 and CW45. I am very fond of them and it's doubtful that I will ever be without these 4 handguns.

However, I have discovered that while the lightweight plastic guns are great for carry, I really prefer steel, and in a twist, stainless steel, which is an odd thing from me because I don't really like shiny guns. To this end, I have added the Ruger SP101 and GP100 357 magnums and the Kahr K9 to my carry guns, and recently put a MK9 on layaway. 357 and 9mm are concessions to me as well, but I can live with them.

What I want to know, has Kahr ever made or considered a MK380 (T380 anyone?) Or a K45? I think either, or both, would be pretty sweet.

We've all been begging for a K45, but no joy. I doubt we ever see one.
All the new developments seem to be focused on the polymer products.

The Ruger additions are nice...……….springs, polish, and you have great shooting/carry firearms. Been carrying an MK for 8+ years...…….one of the best.

And a MK45. Please Kahr!!!

And weird, unnecessary finishes IMHO

[CPTKILLER]

My MK9 is superb. A MK45 is doable as is a K45.

Kahr is a small company and I doubt that they pull it off.

My MK40 Elite is my pride and joy Kahr.
I'd buy a K45 Elite without blinking :cool:
But it seems our voice falls on deaf ears...

Oh Well :(

Why? They have the T series that are .45
Now they could make an MT45, that be cool!

Because the T series is a different frame size then K or MK.

Personally, I don't care that much. I'm not into Kahrs for .45ACP. But if I were I'd most likely want one in K. The T has never worked for me. Get to that size and I have other arms that fit nicely.

Just what do you suppose an MT would look like anyway? Perhaps like a K?

No such area code, no such zone.

...and the poly TP45 (https://shopkahrfirearmsgroup.com/tp45-tp4543/) :hippie:

I just bought a MK9 series 03 elite. It was previously owned but never fired. I called Kahr and they said it was four yesrs old from the serial number.

This is the first all steal Kahr I have owned or even fired. It is truly superb, and a world of difference in the felt recoil. While I have fired 125 times so far, there has never been a been a problem with function. I would imagine that this is due to the all steel construction.

The TP45 price is kind of steep the way the market is for many other brands of 45's, that is my opinion. I have an XDS 45 which was selling for 499.

My bad, I could of swore Kahr used to make a .45 in the T series.
