Does anyone know who can make Grips for the Mk9, Wood or maybe G10.
Also a more Slim grip.

Thanks Jim

I've made Kahr grips for my K40, K9 and MK9 but they are very early models and ones I've made for others and sent out didn't fit the newer versions, some didn't
fit the older versions in the same serial sequence so I got nothing to build on.

If you buy a set from the Kahr shop smooth and confirm they fit your gun I can slim them down for you and checker them if you desire.

I've pretty much given up on making them from scratch until I own or find somebody with a new version I can borrow. The insides are a bit of a chore to fit and definitely depressing when you get all done and they don't fit.

Being a serialized part I can't purchase just a frame.

A dummy grip? or a dummy frame? or I'm a dummy?

Lots of guys here are gonna love you to pieces if you pull this off.

I have total faith in you. I often wish I'd taken metal shop in school, course we didn't have any of the cool mills and lathes like they got now.
I'm pretty deadly with a file and a grinder though.
