I'm not saying it was easy, but with my 23 year-old P9 and CT9 I could get the slide assembly reassembled with only a little fiddling.
When I bought a TP9-2 I struggled and struggled to get the...
I don' t know how the ST9 fits in with the differences between the TP9 (luxury) and the CT9 (economical), but the TP9-2 falls in between. It has the nicer slide (dovetailed front sight, nicer...
I've been wanting to try the Phlster Enigma holster chassis with my Kahr CT9 or my Kahr TP9-2, but for a long time I could not find a suitable holster.
Apparently, these guns are not sufficiently...
The difference in length of the magazines is half an inch -- more than the diameter of a cartridge. I suppose every increase in capacity adds to the weight of the rounds, which requires a stronger...
Experimenting further, I noticed that the thin metal floorplate of the MK-9 / PM-9 does not cover up as much of the magazine body as does the plastic floorplate that comes with CW9 / P-9 / CT9 / TP9...
I have a 23 year-old P9. I was able to mount its slide on a CT9 frame and on a TP9-2 frame. I did not try to fire it. It might be useful if you wanted to be able to press the gun against the...
I have the same serial number plate on my TP-2. There is barely 3/8" of plastic below the serial number plate, and to make the 7-round magazine fit you would have to remove a half inch (4/8") of...
Someone in the group about Kahr T9 pistols said you could use a 1911 holster for it.
Would that also work for a TP9? CT9? ST9?
Would that be only leather holsters or kydex holsters, too?
Would a 1911 holster fit a TP9 or CT9? ST9?
I have noticed this. I think the people who prefer the short-reset / wall trigger are foolish and ignorant, but maybe it's just me who's an old fogey. I started on revolvers in the '90s. I learned...
Back when police were making the transition from revolvers the understanding was that you need a manual safety for a single-action gun, but a double-action trigger makes that unnecessary.
But the...
The guide rods on my CT-9 and TP-2 9mm were both already radiused, but the guide rod that came with the TP-2 that made reassembly of either gun frustrating was a millimeter or so longer.
I figured...
I have a 22 year-old P9 (3.45" barrel). The end of the guide rod if flat and lays even with the front of the slide.
I have a 3 year-old CT9 (economy version of the TP9 -- these have a 3.9"...
What brand holster is that? I bet it would conceal really well appendix style if you could attach a wing to lever the grip inward (especially if used for one of the bigger Kahrs).
This is what I would try.
I would take a 10 round magazine and attach the base plate of an 8 round TP9 magazine.
I would gently insert the magazine into the gun, and then coat the exposed bottom...
I'll be shipping a gun to Kahr for service. They have sent me a FedEx label to print.
1. Do I need to return one of the gun's magazines with it?
a. Both?
2. Do I just buy a cardboard box,...
Is the only difference from the TP9 that it has a rail? I recently bought a TP9-2 that also has a rail.
MagGuts sells a kit for Kahr's 6-round magazine, and a kit for Kahr's 7-round magazine.
Has anyone tried installing the 7-roung magazine kit into Kahr's 8-round magazines?
If so, how well did...
The issue I'm talking about is described in this youTube video:

He points out that when the magazine is full, hollow points won't gently feed -- one...
I believe I can carry the longer 4.5" threaded barrel in my CT-9 without sacrificing comfort or concealability. I expect it would give me slightly better ballistics and shootability. The Kahr...
Since no hand-fitting was required, how is the accuracy? As good as with the barrel that came with the gun?
Did you have to do any custom fitting? (When it was on their website, it said some fitting might be required.)
Do all Kahr's polymer 9mm guns have the same internal design?
For example, will a CT-9 barrel fit in a P9?
Option (B) makes little sense unless you want to replace your P9 Covert as a pocket gun -- and even then you'd probably need a tailor to deepen your pockets and to make your own pocket holster.
