I have the uncle george holster for the LCP. I usually IWB carry, so I don't use this method of carry every day. For me it is more of a special occasion item when I might use this or a smart carry...
Kahrs are like potato chips - nobody can have just one.
Congrats. Now you have started on the never ending quest for components.
It can save money and if you continue to shoot at the same rate you do now it won't be long before you ROI will be make up...
I use the same set up with my cm9. I usually iwb a larger piece most times, but this set up works really good for those deeper conceal needs that come up. Mine is not showing that much wear - yet....
I don't consider a 40sw any kind of a hand cannon at all. Maybe if you were looking for something in a 44mag, 454, 460, 500 or maybe the 50ae, I could apply the term hand cannon to it.
To me a...
Colt Peacemaker and repeating rifles like the 1860 Spencer Repeating rifle.
In the case of the Spencer the ability to fire multiple shots (15 per minute) in the age of muzzleloaders (up to 3-4...
For an all kydex or a hybrid holster anything beyond 3 weeks would test my patience. There are many makers out there. I manage to get most of my orders shipped out in under two weeks.
Its amazing...
First one, out of four, I ever had to send back was a couple of months ago. Took two weeks and a day for it to return. Works great now. Hope your experience is similar.
I don't carry the cm9 all the time. What I carry most often would likely be too big when I need to carry deeper than normal. The G26 can be too thick, the XDS9 too heavy and the shield too narrow in...
It's the same complaint I have for most of the "mic"/minimalist type holsters. It must have the trigger substantially covered on both sides along with the slide portion that is against my skin to be...
Nearly the same. The top of the slide to the bottom of the trigger guard by the grip is about 1/10 of an inch difference. The CW9 comes in at 2.5" and the CW45 comes in at 2.59". So that would work...
Standing a cw9 and cw45 on their top including the sights and with a magazine inserted the cw45 comes in about 3/8" taller than the cw9. I measure the overall height of the cw45 at 5-1/4".
Glad yours is up and running and off to a good start.
I'd agree it is probably not much of a target/range gun, but certainly does what it was built to do. I use the 180gr in my cw40 as well.

For my cw9 the spare I carry is an 8 round magazine (K920G with grip ext). I use a ballistic nylon pouch with a belt loop which has a generous Velcro flap so either magazine size fits fine in the...
Could see how she might think a lightweight cw40 is more than she might want to shoot. The snap of the 40 in that size takes some practice (and the desire) to get used to it. My wife had no problem...
Interesting they are announcing these prior to the shot show while we are still waiting for the other two (CW3833 and the CM4543) announced from the shot show in the beginning of this year. Hope it's...
If you find you do need to cover the grip a bit I would try the bicycle inner tube. On my cw45 I used a quik grip, but on my cw40 I used a piece of a 1.75" inner tube and it worked fine.
It is a...
My favorites to carry and shoot is a toss up. For strictly carry characteristics, my favorites are the cw9 and cw40 size single stacks. To me they are about the perfect size for iwb carry.
I...
Welcome to the forum.
No safety on most Kahr handguns, but rather a long dao trigger.
Did you mean the slide lock on the side of the slide or maybe the magazine release button? If either of...
Nice - glad you are having a good time with it. Thanks for the report.
My experience with my cm9 has been the same with everything I have thrown at it. Although I will qualify that "everything"...
Have been using some 147gr Winchester Ranger-Ts in my cm9 and cw9 and they feed and cycle the action just fine.
I may have to try some of the other 147gr varieties (HSTs & Golddots) when my stash...
In my defensive pistols, I tend to shoot the same bullet weight in my plinking rounds I plan to carry in defensive rounds.
My preference tends to lean towards the heavier end of bullets commonly...
I don't currently own the cm40, but the cw40. As mentioned, you can use the longer cw40 mags in a cm40.
This Kahr link shows all the magazine model numbers available for each model;

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new CW9. They certainly are an enjoyable model to shoot.
Lots of good information has been saved in the stickies at the top of this New Member Area forum...
