Title: Kahr P45
Post by: Ratzo on September 10, 2005, 10:28:28 PM

I hear tell:

The Gun Stores around are saying that the New Kahr P45, Starting to Ship to Gun stores at this Time, are going to be one of the Hot Guns on the market. Has anyone else heard this? Or does anyone know anything about Kahr firearms. ???

The 9MM Kahr I looked at was pretty poorly made -- I saw one before I heard of a Rohrbaugh, and couldn't bring myself to pay 540 for such a poorly finished, and crude feeling pistol -- I lack the knowledge to comment beyond the aesthetics, but I questioned relying on a gun that rough.

I, for one, will not be buying the P45, or any Kahrs, for that matter. I owned the MK9. I disliked the fact that it didn't have a repeat striker capability and sold it in order to buy my R9.

Now, if Kahr changes their design and adds a repeat striker capability, they'll have me back as a customer very quickly.

I was generally pleased with my PM9.

My biggest concern was that it did not seem to be much of a pocket pistol.  It was just too big for me, and felt kind of heavy.  I usually had to resort to a VM-2, rather than the pocket.

The R9S is hardly noticeable.  It even compares fairly well to the P3AT as a "forget it's there"  type of gun.
