Last night I picked up my "new" Kahr T9 from my FFL that I purchased from budsgunshop.com. It was late and the shop actually stayed open late to get me my gun, so my initial inspection was less than thorough. As I looked it over I noticed a fair amount of grime and grit, what I took to be packing grease. Once I got it home and broke it down, I noticed how dirty it really was in there. After a good cleaning, I also noticed some wear marks on the slide and barrel, as well as on the breech face. Needless to say, I don't feel that this is a "brand new" gun. I am wondering if Buds Gun Shop has a retail store and shooting range or something, or if this is a return. I took pics after the cleaning to show what I am referring to. I would welcome any input regarding these marks, not that I think it will affect the guns performance. The bore looks close to new so I doubt there have been many rounds through it at all. Anyway, this is just the beginning of my journey into KahrLand, I am going shooting on Wednesday so I will be posting performance details after I get back.
Here are some new pics with (hopefully) better lighting and angles.
