The froward mouth knows no bounds... regurgitation of old and bad liberal ideas is always on their mind though.
Nothing to see here folks: back on topic.
To the OP; I was in a shop today and almost traded my CW9 in on a P or PM9 (had I had the money for the difference) just to get the night sights. Having the slide machined for dove tail costs about %35 of a new CW9; or buying the high viz sights offered by Kahr is just another portion of monies you could apply to the higher $$$ gun.
Sorry. My response wasn't toward you. It was towards the open bucket (weakminded repeater) that labeled 'religious' people weakminded. It's a phrase used by those who only believe what they read, for instance in the National Inquirer.To let you guys know where I am coming from. My Aunt was involved in the moonies just out of High school (19 years old) in New York state. My grandparents had to have her kidnapped from the moonies. When they saw her she was skin and bones and a near vegatable. The moonies had found out that she had engaged in premaritial sex and had brainwashed her into believing she was going to die because of it. She died in the hospital.
Actually, I pretty much believe only what I see and know to be true through verifiable sources. "People who believe only what they read" would pretty much describe the majority of religious folks. I know that simple minded folk like to put labels on people...it requires less thought and lets them know how they are supposed to respond. However, I'm hardly a liberal. You are equating conservatism with membership in the Jesus club. They are certainly not the same thing.
It's a tragedy that IDCC"s aunt was lured away by the Moonies and convinced that she would die because of premarital sex. However, is this not the same message of your lord? Perhaps the modern church does not starve people, or make them starve themselves, but promising eternal fire and damnation isn't exactly the polar opposite of what the Moonies are teaching. Perhaps forgiveness is available in the modern Christian church, after joining up and paying your 10%. A less severe example of "join us or die spiritually," but the same thing, nonetheless.
Back on topic, indeed......

I'm not an atheist. (Another one of your convenient labels that saves you from having to actually think) I'm more of an agnostic. There might be a god. There might not. I kinda doubt that there is, given some of the horrible, unexplainable crap that I've seen happen to good people. I don't know what you do for a living, but my life and career allows me to see the real world on a day to day basis. I'm not the only LEO on this board with a healthy dose of skepticism towards religion.....reality does that to you, if you think for yourself.
I've never owned a Kahr, but I did shoot one once...and I've got to say that I absolutely hated the trigger on it. Heavy draw, sloppy break...it was abominable, and this is from someone who not only drinks, but enjoys, the Glock kool-aid....pistols known for not having the cleanest DAO triggers.
It was a solid gun, and functioned just fine, but man did I hate the trigger on it. However, to be fair, it was the one and only Kahr I've ever shot, and it might have just had issues. YMMV.
I bought a Karh CW9 from Bradis about a month ago (if you've never been there, the place is great, IMO). If the Kahr is new to you, don't do what I did..., I fired a couple mag's through my Glock 23 then picked up my "new" Kahr.
Boy..., the trigger pull is long..., long! It feels like two inches, and might actually be close to that the last time I measured! I don't know..., I'm still relatively new to Glocks (being a 1911 guy by nature)..., but after the first dissapointing "long pull" on a Glock I'm used to just letting out the old pull finger just a 1/4" or so..., just enough hear that magic click when I know it's ready to go again.
To my knowledge, the Kahr does not have a trigger "upgrade" that replicates the Glock in this specific preference. I posted that exact quesiton on Kahr's blog about a week ago, and received so many negative comments I think I'm bannned!
Don't get me wrong..., the Kahr is single stack and feels very good in the hand (very 1911 like). I like that. It is a carry-weapon, only having 7 in the mag but don't mix apples/oranges/bannanas..., on what you are getting. It's a single stack, concealable, double action, 7 round, no safety, great looking weapon that feels great in hand...
Please shoot one before buying one (I wish I had done so).
Good luck.
