Sig p250 vs Kahr CW45

[Tennjed]

Looking at getting a compact/sub compact 45acp. Will be used for some carry, HD, and range fun. Want to keep it under $500. The Sig 250 and Kahr CW45 both intrigue me. Which would you choose and does anyone have any opinions on them. Espically interested in.

How it handles reloads/handloads

Customer Service

Reliability

Open for other suggestions also. Again keep it under $500 and looking for a ploy fram. Not interested in a 1911 (I want to get 2 45's and one will be a full size 1911 the other will be a poly compact)

I'd go with the kahr. Its smaller and better built in my opinion.

+1 for the Kahr

Agree on the Kahr. I had a CW 45 and it handled very well. It was before I started loading, so can't speak to that. I also know their customer service is top notch based on an issue with my wife's CW40. I have not had a Sig P250, but have read several negative comments.

Of those two, I'd go for the Kahr. I've never really been overwhelmed with the P250. Just seems like it was Sig's answer to a question nobody asked.

also have to vote for the kahr. sigs makes awesome guns, but the 250 is not one of them. the compact feels ok in the hand, but it still leaves something to be desired. the subcompact 250 feels terrible. the kahr feels good in the hand and seems to be a better made piece. just my opinon.

Of those two the Kahr by all means. Some of your 1911 mags will work in that cw45 btw.
