I've seen prices on P9's at around $520. People are asking a little more for the PM9. (some PM9's have had peening problems, but that seems to have been worked-out now).ElGato wrote:What are the P9's going for, I'm thinking of trying one?

New Kahr P 45 Break-In report
I just fired the manual-suggested 200 round "break-in" for a new Kahr P45.
This photo is of the 2nd 100 rounds fired @ 15 yards. This weapon is so accurate that it's scary. Rounds used for break-in were as follows:
50 rds. PMC 230 gr. ball
50 rds. my loads (230 gr. ball w/ CCI primers & 5.7 gr. of 231)
50 rds. Wolf 230. gr. ball
50 rds. Federal's "American Eagle" 230 gr. ball
There were 2 FTF's on my loads (CCI primers are notoriously hard). Everything else worked well. There was a guy next to me - for a while - shooting a .500 S&W. Then he switched to a ported .357 snubbie ... I'm glad that I was wearing plugs and muffs.
I'm extremely impressed with this little Kahr. Reasonably priced spare magazines would be a huge plus. It just came back from the factory because of the slide failing to lock open ... seems as if they've got it fixed.
