Kahr MK9 Gun Review

- Ed reviews the Kahr MK9 - a steel-framed, single-stack, striker-fired, double-action semi-auto pistol with a smooth-as-butter double-action trigger.
The MK9 is a tiny 9mm that's highly concealable, but being made of steel rather than polymer gives it a feeling of quality and the shootability of a big gun in this small-gun package.
It's not inexpensive, but you get refinement and reliability for the MSRP of $880 (and lower online and at retail). Definitely a gun worth shooting, and potentially adding to your everyday carry configuration.

This is my favorite Kahr to carry. Please, more Kahr videos. I'm binging on the ones you got!
same. do you still carry kahrs??
@@trav-c137 yup. Cm9 and cw9 mostly
@@CMBDIA cw you go holster cm you go pocket ?
@@trav-c137 I do both on the ankle. Sometimes the cm iwb.
Great review with lots of details.... That model is a real beauty. The kahr triggers are really unique.
One of these sweethearts have been my EDC for years now, love it. I have thousands of rounds through it without a single issue. Shooting a +P 124g Speer Gold Dot that extra weight is very welcome. It didn't take long to get used to when I got it I don't even notice it now. I only have a small collection but of the handguns I have this is my favorite. I forgot to add, if you want to put a nice touch on it polish the entire barrel. I did mine, the polished breech looks really nice against the matte slide.
Excellent explanation and take down. Thanks
This is my edc, love mine. I added Talon stick on wrap around grips on mine. I pocket carry daily, use a good belt and you get used to the weight pretty quickly. Enjoyed the video.
Great video, I want one!
The best review is your own after purchase. Bought mine (MK9) in 2003. My EDC with high noon holster.
Also, I have 3 other polymers Kahrs and to fix the magazine not shooting out, press the mag release button all the way in. I have a slip on grip on all my kahrs and with the extra pressure from the grip, it still shoots out.
this is my favorite back up weapon. Sure its a bit heavier than a polymer pistol but just something about having the feel of steel in your hand. This little pocket rocket is an uber reliable, beautiful looking, accurate pistol. I have night sites and a hogue rubber grip sleeve on mine. I also replaced my guide rod and spring to a stainless steel upgrade. Actually made it shoot better too., Less snap. These are so well made and the fit and finish is on par with weapons costing twice this or more. I am very happy with my kahr nk9. Something to note, even though they hang out the bottom but any and all kahr 9mm mags fit and work, even the k series 10 rounders for when your at the range and wanna have a little extra fun!
Love my MK9!
most underrated gun of all time this gun will out shoot you the barrel is made of the best steel in the world from Germany korbon ammo three shots bench resting. three shots in a row three hundred yards on a five inch plate with a spotter watching amazing gun
wow! I love these kahr guns too. I grew up on single action pistols but the smoothness of kahrs are amazing so I didn't mind going through the transitional faze of learning to be accurate with the double action
these older/forgotten kahrs are great. kahr makes some weird guns tbh. the problem with small subcompacts is both their weight and handling. this atleast corrects the weight problem with all steel.
i would like to point out that the MK and PM series is inherently less accurate than the cheaper CM version because of their polygonal barrel. polygonal barrels seal better and give you more velocity for the same barrel length, super important in these short guns, but they also deform the projectile slightly more and decrease accuracy.
I personally ankle carry a cm40, really wish i could find a cheap mk40 coz that thing is basically impossible to shoot.... but its the smallest practical 40 u can get.... i cant think of another 40 anyone would try to ankle carry in their right mind otherthan maybe the sub compact glocks?
out of the short barrel of the cm40, 40sw has like 30% more energy than 357 out of a snub nose. really cant compete with it as a get off me gun that can still penetrate.
good video
How is the recoil and muzzle rise for this one? Good for new shooters?
so will it have less recoil than the pm9 since it's all stainless?
yes and especially if you make the upgrade to a stainless guide rod and spring set
O have the larger K40, sig p938, Remington rm 380, Walther pples I and trying not to buy this handgun. But it does look good.
the thumb slide release on mine won't release the slide unless a mag is installed?
By design
I boughg a kahr k9 nes, after 20 rounds the ejector exploded off the side of the slidd, injuring my hand. Pistol is back at kahr, waiting 5 weeks to fire round 21. Will prob sell at next gun show and buy either kimber stg or ruger lc9s.
Had to get a part replaced in mine after a few 1000 rounds. Started to get issues with it not cycling fully into battery. Not a pistol I would buy again considering cost of replacement parts from customer no service at Kahr. Ruger charges nothing and gets parts sent to you quicker. Not a bad gun but not a great company behind this gun either.
I'm having trouble with mine as well. It's just not 100% reliable anymore. I've had it for probably 20+ years, maybe 25 years.
@@tjwright Kahr customer no service can get it working fully again or a competent gunsmith but it will cost you. I'll never do more business with that company. As much as they cost they should stand behind their product like Ruger and not rip us off.
@@allenbmooresharinginformation Took mine to the range again today. Didn't fully close up even once. I had to hit it after every shot. Do you know what all Kahr did to yours to fix it? I'm thinking it may just need a new spring. Might be cheaper than sending the gun in... ?
@@happydogg312 Thanks. Right after I posted that I ordered a new stock spring. I haven't shot it yet but it seems to have fixed it. It was only $14 for the spring if I remember right so I'm not all mad about it
In the bar scene in “Gone Baby Gone” Casey Affleck pistol whips a guy in the face with this metal gun, he has small hands but it was still unrealistic as the butt wouldn’t extend past his palm.
Wish they had one with rails.
👎🏼
MK9 is way better than Glock 43.
why would you even compare to a plastic pos
I agree with literally everything you said, but if I'm being honest, I can't overlook the 10 ounces less and $400 I'll save by going with the CM9.
Yep, heavy and expensive aren't really the best characteristics for a concealed carry gun, but this one is oh so sweet!
heavy means better recoil management
A one and a half finger grip? lol...no thanks!
Go for the MK9 instead. Here's a comparison video: ruclips.net/video/xVvOm_pgrds/видео.html
this gun wasnt made to fit perfectly in your hands.. it was made to be very concealable.
