Does anyone know if a custom leather holster for a PM9 will also work for a MK 40? I recently sold my MK9, kept my PM9, and intend to get an MK40 in the near future. I would like to use the same holster if possible.

Im not the most experienced Kahr guy, But i knew size wise all 3 mentioned guns are very close to exact sizes.


Ignore this advice below as it has no value pertaining to your question. I wanted to just delete this part but my stupidity should be seen by others. :(

The only reason i would see a fitting issue would be if you put Kahrs wood grips on as they do add a slight bit of width.
If you do use wood grips and a leather holster is too tight, Just wrap your gun in a plastic sandwich baggy and let it sit in the holster a day or two. Thin cloth like linen may work better, But what it does is stretch the leather a slight bit. And it will stay that way also.

How do the grips effect the holster fit? Like a full coverage holster or a pocket holster or sometihing. None of my holsters touch the grips.

I think i may be a savant or something at times, So smart, Yet so dumb.....
