Anyone own or shot a ......

Recommended Posts

Let me just say I am a huge fan of Blue Bloods....

On the show, Donny Wahlberg's character carries a Kahr K9 or T9.

 

Pretty good looking gun, and I've read that trigger is great and it's a great feeling pistol.

Anyone own one or shot one?

 

Been saving for my next purchase and this might be a contender....

 

What do people think?

Easy to find?

I have searched that too, used to approved for off duty carry, but not anymore.

Even more odd is that it is his everyday carry on the show. Hollywood took its Liberty with this one.

 

Not the exact same model but I have a PM9 that I carry occasionally as a BUG that has been great. Nice little gun, no malfunctions over a few thousand rounds through it.

 

Keep in mind that the NYPD recently removed Kahr as an approved duty gun after some reliability issues.

I just think the all metal kahrs are great looking guns. From reading online they are really ergonomic, and it says the trigger is long but smooth, and because of the metal construction and weight, recoil is very low.

The t9 with the wood grips looks very visually appealing !

Keep in mind that the NYPD recently removed Kahr as an approved duty gun after some reliability issues.

IIRC, it wasn't a reliability issue with the gun. After a series of ND's over a few years the NYPD asked Kahr to increase the trigger pull to 13 lbs (from 7 or 8) and Kahr said they tried, but couldn't get the pull up that high.

 

Here is a link to an article about the issue:

I have an MK9. At the time I purchased it the reliability of the poly framed variant was about 50/50 (that problem apparently has been solved) and the all stainless guns seemed to run well. It is heavy and really needs to be carried on the belt, rather than pocket carry. Has great sights, polygonal rifling (not all of them do - the less expensive Kahrs use regular broach cut rifling) and a long, light and smooth D/A trigger. Great little gun.

      Hello, new owner of a handgun in NJ. Had a question for all of you experts out there! I keep seeing all these different things online so I have an suv so the trunk area is accessible to the back seat area. From my understanding, it needs to be locked in a case and its fine to be in the trunk of my suv? Also my other question.. the ammo.. that needs to be in a separate case? Does it need to have a lock on it or can it just be a bag with a zipper?

      A fellow forum was asking about a display case for his wife’s pistol I believe. So I decided after seeing some display cases for insane prices, to make my own out of more or less cheap prices. 
      This one will be for my Nighthawk Custom Falcon 1911.
      I started out with a humidor I had when I was on a cigar kick with the club.
      Humidors make perfect cases for your gun. 
      Why? Its designed to keep moisture in so your cigars don’t dry out. Ones that are well made have a nice tight seal.
      ‘But John, we don’t want to keep moisture in. It will hurt the gun’. Correctomundo! But using it to keep moisture out works too! If you are not a cigar smoker, a humidor keeps the cigars from drying out by putting a moisture pad inside. We simply won’t be using the moisture pad nor the cheapo humidity gauge they usually give you.
      So lets start. One used but still in great shape humidor with glass lid. If you don’t have one, you can pick up something decent for about $50. I added a lik leather NH tag to use to open lid. They are air tight and easier to open with something to grab.

      If you use a humidor, they sometimes come with a lil shelf and divider. Toss them.
      Next, we added a little antique bronze clasp. 5 for $12 on Amazon. They come with tiny wood screws. You’ll need a jeweler type phillips head and a small awl to start a hole. Do not screw in without a starter hole. Also a mini pad lock with skeleton key.


      Next, you’ll want something to lay in there like velvet. I chose purple velvet. Rather than buy it by the yard, I actually got 2 - 14”x14” pillow shams with zippers on Amazon for about $11...
      This is a lot cheaper than buying it by the yard plus you don’t gave to sew anything. Just stuff it and zip it.

      You will need something to stuff it. That is your choice. I already had a bag of poly fill from another project. You can even rio open al old pillow and use the guts.


      Next is rechargeable Silica packs. I got a 25 count bag cheap also on Amazon. I chose to line the bottom of the case and also throw some inside the sham.


      Once you beat it and adjust it to get in the right position, you can see how the gun sits and adjust as needed.
      Next is optional and not cheap. I picked up 2 - Sensor Push bluetooth temp/humidity sensors for $50 each. One for the box and one for my safe. After calibrating them and pairing them to my phone, I inserted one into the display case.


      You don’t have to do this but I’m a bit of a tech nerd so.... [emoji6]
      You can also use a cheap digital one too.
      This one transmits data and stores 20 points which you can set alarms in the app if moisture increases. Kind of more important in my safe but....[emoji16]
      Here is a sample of the data. I just put them in so it will take time to level off.


      That’s pretty much it. Outside of the sensors, its cheap, easy and looks great. You can fo crazy with it or go simple.
