Our Favorite Kahrs Picture Thread

[stinger]

Another picture thread? I just can't resist showing off the prettiest CM9 in the world!

Opening the box.


Everything is polished to a mirror finish: slide, barrel, trigger, slide stop desharpened and polished, and even the magazine!


The sights are white. The yellow is a trick of the lighting.


How do you like my treasure!

How was this shine accomplished?

With a lot of work & a lot of love ... or so we've been told. I love the look, but I'm not that dedicated.

That is fantastic. That is definitely custom and cost alot to do.

A 10" polish wheel and a bunch of polishing compound would do it pretty quick. i used to sharpen and polish wood carving knives in about 2 minutes with a bench grinder with that attachment.

These slide are very hard though too. The barrel and chamber hood polish up easy, the mag also but that slide takes some real effort.

I started my PM45 and got it pretty shiny but not that level. Went with fine sandpaper through finer and finer grits then the wheel. As I said not that level or even close but pretty nice.

I don't have a large buffer wheel either, 6" I think. Bigger would probably help too.

Yea. The barrel polished up super easy.

It has a nickel finish but the slide is pretty hard.
I tried polishing up the inside where I makes contact with the barrel and it still isn't that good.
Every time I see that polished 9 I want to do my 45. But it shows scratches like crazy. The first time I used mine after I polished the barrel, it was scratched to hell from the slide.

With my luck I would scratch it all up. Better for me if I want to get fancy is stick with the PM9. CM 9 is not California approved.

I'll add to the polishness.
