Kind of regret seeing that P45 for $450. Can’t stop thinking about owning a third Kahr 45. A PM45, TP45 maybe a P45. I best not wait very long.

I have almost bought a used P45 a few times. However, my CW45 is hard to beat and has a great cocking serrations area as it's abbreviated on the P45 series. A tapered nose is nice for reholstering, I would think so anyway, especially one-handed reholstering.
A CW45 and a S&W 638 are the same size. Height, length, width.....actually the cylinder is wider in width. That puts things in perspective when thinking about the CW45's size.
Thought I owned all the Kahrs I'd ever need or want, but that was before this thread started me reading and watching PM45 reviews. I've found myself poking around gunbroker, window shopping the stainless, iron-sighted models . . .
I've resigned myself to the fact that this gun thing never ends...just when you think you have all you need, something else comes along. The problem is complicated when you have a wife who thinks that anyone who owns more than one gun is crazy. I spoke to the owner of my favorite LGS, and he's not a fan of the PM45, or the Springfield XDs 45 for that matter. According to him, the recoil on both is too harsh for most people. He's a Ruger master dealer, so that probably influences his opinion somewhat.
A lot of dealers don't know Kahrs and rely solely on hearsay and rumor for information, a lot like the internet.
That being said my son has 3 XD 45's and they don't sing to me, I don't notice anything harsh on recoil on them but we just don't gel. He want's the hammer model out now, but like me he's questioning himself. He has 3 already. Of course I tried to provide fatherly wisdom and told him to buy one anyhow, you got the money, you got the desire, why torture yourself ya know.

Well, I done pulled the proverbial trigger...$606.79 shipped with the credit card fee. If I don't like it, I'll blame Bawanna.
I'll accept the blame if it's deserved but I got a suspicion your gonna like it just fine and dandy. That's a decent price, as I recall I paid considerable more for mine and that was several years ago.
Guess I better go find mine and show it some love...................oh wait, there it is on my ankle. Guess I'm getting forgetful.
