Other thing folks do mention is how hot they get after only moderate thruput - at least with P7M8 and I assume same gas system. Price seemed very fair as these and similar models apparently in much demand.

I may be remembering wrong but have a feeling Class3NH has one.

Good memory Chris!

indeed I do! In fact TWO PSPs (1 in hard chrome with night sights) One in Bluse with night sights, AND a P7M8 as well!

I guess that makes it a THREESOME

They work flawlessly, and will eat anything you put through them. I would suggest the Fed Hydra Shoks, Gold Dots, and Fed/Win FMJ. Stay away from the Wolf 9 mm stuff, or you'll be in dire straits.

BTW, DON'T thorughly clean the gas rod, as the weapon works better with it being slightly dirty. The weapon was designed for either a Righty or LEFTY shooter.

Mags are no problem either. BEST thing is, if you have the takedown tool, you can pull the firing pin assy out, AND leave the weapon with a round in chamber, and full mag, thus rendering the weapon TOTALLY harmless and inoperable to small, inquisitive hands.

Have you been peeking in my safe?

I have a couple of Kahrs and think they're great. I just picked up a P7M8 (already hard chromed). The things I like about the Kahrs are much the same as what drew me to the P7 (flat, reliable, constant trigger pull, accurate).

Now, I just need to find a holster for it.

I kinda like the European Style mag release.
It's actually quite fast on a magazine change but, takes lots of practice & a bit of "Slight Of Hand Manipulation" but, it's worth the time & effort to master it.
My "Carry" SIG/Browning .45s have the Euro Mag Releases.

Very nice!

My brother has a PSP and really enjoys his. The plus side of having a "staple gun"

is that for whatever freak reason your handgun is wrestled away from you, chances are the other person won't know how to operate it.

Here's a picture of a PSP (top) and P7M8 (bottom, with heat shield).

Hey Betty if your Kahr is looking for a new home let me know. My is looking for a brother or sister to play with.

My Kahr did find a new home - with my fiancé. He also took my Colt Mustang.

MMMMM sounds like what my wife did with my S&W Model 60-7. I have used it for years till she tried it and boom its hers and I get vistiation once in a blue moon.

but its so expensive now that I'm afraid to let it out of the safe.

P7's are nice guns. I bought one back in the early 80's and kept it until the mid 90's when someone made me an offer for it too good to pass up. I wouldn't have sold it then but I already had several other handguns (still have the Ruger P85 I bought new when they first came out and a number of others I had then), was about to get married and decided to use the money on a wedding ring. Now, I think my wife (still have her, too) would probably like the gun better than the ring. Me too!!
