Oppinions on the Kahr PM40

[ma4220]

I have not read many reviews on this gun. I am interested in getting one myself one day and I was wondering what others have thought of their Kahrs. How is the reliability, accuracy, an so fourth.

I can't speak to the .40, but I love my PM9 for what it is. It is a very compact semi-auto. I've put about 350 rounds through it, no failures of any kind. I can hit what I'm aiming at and I have complete confidence in the gun such that I carry it in deep concealment.

Ive got a PM40 and carry it everyday. I put the pinky extender on the mag but when i shot it the mag kept comming out so I took it off and put the factory one back on. i carry it in a inside the pocket holster everyday and it is great, espically in the summer with shorts on. I dont even know its there iti s so small. They are not fun guns to shoot, being so small they pack quite a punch. A great carry gun but not one you want to take to the range and put 200 round threw every time.

If I recall, this has been discussed numerous times here. Do a search within this specific forum and see what pops up.

I've heard good things about them and almost got one. One member on here with a CW40 though had a bad experience (but you'll get that with every manufacturer). He sent the gun back to Kahr and they took care of him.

Thanks guys, I have read through forums about them and a lot of guys talk about the slides not holding up. But all the threads are from like 2006. I didn't know if anyone has bought a newer Kahr or not. I have a buddy who's about to buy one, I'll see how his holds up. A lot of guys say their Kahr's tear up around the 200-350 round mark.

I could be wrong, but I think after numerous issues they started beefing the internals up and used more stainless steel parts vs polymer. Seems like I read that somewhere on here.
