Another little Kahr followed me home! Yay!

[BirdsThaWord]

My first Kahr was a CM40. I loved it’s power in such a small package. So, this 9mm one popped up and had to grab it. CM9 with a kydex holster, 3 mags (1 flush, 2 pinky) and a box of Hornady for $250, I think I stole it! Can’t wait to take it to the range (hopefully tomorrow, if my chootin buddy stops lolly gagging). I plan to shoot it and the MK9 one after another for a comparison. Curious to see if any seat of the pants differences will unfold.

They will, but to no great extent. My MK9 has less felt recoil than my PM9, for the obvious reason. No big deal, and other than that they for me shoot the same.

I am hoping it shoots the same. What little I've shot the MK, it was AWESOME! I think the little CM is a chunker for a polymer gun, so I think it should be a bit less recoil than maybe my Shield. Maybe not, if all of that weight is in the slide. My hope is that the trigger makes me shoot as good (lol!) as the MK trigger does. I've never been too good a shot with double actions (hence my love of 1911's and da/sa revolvers), but I do fair enough with the MK (and K9) at the range.
Thanks!

As Jocko would say, "Shoot it like u stole it".
And you sure got an outstanding deal.... congratulations!

This one gonna get the polish treatment?

I think this one is going to be let alone as is. I did a P9 and a CW45 one time. It is amazing once you strip the finish off just how wavy/grainy the slides were. Whatever finish Kahr puts on them, it is very good at filling in and hiding imperfections. Had a devil of a time getting them to look how I like. That, and I also have a few up for bench time right now. I put my AMT back-up a step back in the line and started on a Springer compact (just last night) since it’s cool out. Then, I think I wil do the MK, so it kinda matches up with the K. I’ve gotta stop this insanity at some point! But, I’m thankful that I have the mental and physical ability to do that kind of stuff. I meet so many who love guns, but have lost a lot of the joy due to arthritis, neuropathy, etc. I better do it whilst I can!

What's the Polish treatment?

[Bawanna]

Simple, you just use mustard instead of polishing rouge. Duh!

http://i66.tinypic.com/334lw87.jpgThanks... Going to check them out now. Apparently you like them...lol. do they feel as nice as they look? Is that pattern as or more "grippy" than the factory hard grips?

I have OEM grips on my MK... Been looking for something else, just haven't seen anything that caught my eye...https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181220/2345a69ead2bf22b185c5ba82ea2ab28.jpg

Yes, I do like them!;)
They are a bit more gripy than the stock ones (wood was on the MK, Rubber on the K). I’ve only had each to the range once with those on, but did like them. I read the reviews onnthem before buying them. Everyone that has them liked them. Pricey for grips, considering I just bought Wilson Combat G10;grips for only $40 delivered, but theybare one of only a few choices we have for these things. If you get them, you’ll like them for sure. I like yours with the black slide!

[jodyisaacs]

The black is faded on the corners from holster wear and carry. Might be a candidate for a polish job at some point...lol. I like that billet mag base also. Yes, the grips are pricey, but it should be the last set you need. G10s are tough...

I like the “honest wear” look too. Looks tough!

That mag base and sleeve are some other kind of material. I think Lakeline redirects you to a 3D printing company for one or both of those pieces if memory serves me correctly. I’m not quite as happy about them. I had bought them as I had seen a MK in a picture Lakeline had posted, with pretty much the exact set up that I have. Problem/gripe is that the one delivered does not look like the one in their picture. Different texture, and there is too large of a gap between the magwell and the sleeve. Below is a picture that Lakeline had posted. You see it looks much better than the set-up I recieved! :mad:
