.....but again, in a good way.
Why (again)?
Because of this:
Everyone, say hello to my new Kahr P45.
I managed to get this gun thanks to Glocktalk (GT) member Cal45 in Orlando who is a man of great firearms tastes and geniune nice guy. I got it from him NIB for $535.
Initial observations.....it's bigger than my Kahr 9mms: P9 Covert and PM9 which was expected. The width is thicker and the grip length is longer. As noted by another GT member who also owns a P45, the gun does not eject live rounds from the ejection port; they get hung up on the way out. I'm used to that since the Steyr M and S series guns also have that same characteristic.
A bit more troubling is that one has to slap the magazine into the magazine well HARD....and I do mean hard. If not, the magazine doesn't seat. Let's see if that issue self-corrects through hundreds of magazine exchanges.
Well, my P45 will see it's range debut this coming Tuesday. I'll post a follow-up range report after the trip.
I'll throw up some comparison photos of my other Kahrs later on as well.
Here's a photo of my P45 with one of my other compact .45 ACP's, my Kimber Combat Carry 1911.
