The Kahr website no longer shows them; I phoned and they said they expect to offer it again in a few months -- they just don't have any in stock at the moment and don't want customers to be frustrated with a long wait after ordering.

I figure it would be even better if the old CT-9 barrel would work in my old P-9 Covert (short grip) to give the back-up pocket gun a slightly longer barrel as well. (I might need a tailor to deepen the pockets and construct my own pocket holster, but I like the idea of a pocket gun with a 4" barrel.)
