Microgunner Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 Right now I use a KelTec P3AT for deep concealment but want to replace it with a Kahr P380 which I've been unable to locate. Anyone have any experience with the Kahr? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 I think If I was in the market for a gun like that right now myself I would get the Ruger LCP. It comes in smaller, lighter and 1/2 - 1/3 the price and is readily available. I went through this with a friend recently and Im pretty sure it was that model Kahr. The ruger just felt better and smoother wherever we tucked it compared to the Kahr.You can try the ruger while you locate the Kahr. You can ditch the Ruger if you dont like it when the Kahr becomes more readily available. jmho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microgunner Posted September 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 Well, like I said, I already own the KelTec P3AT which the Ruger LCP is almost an exact copy of. The Kahr P380 is actually smaller than either of these pistols, has the same capicity but is a couple of ounces heavier. My KelTec works just fine but being a gun guy I'm always looking for an excuse to buy something interesting. But if it's not an improvement why bother. I'll have to study on this further. Thanks.

imschur Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 Holy cow the Ruger is similar to the KelTec P3AT. I had no idea. I should have mentioned earlier before my buddy decided on the Ruger he bought the Walther PPS. While not as small as these other guns it sure does have a great power to size ratio. Im a firm believer in owning one of every gun. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 I haven't looked at the Kahr but was looking at the KelTec just the other day, but decided it could wait until springtime since I don't need one that small during the fall and winter. My question is why are you replacing it?I'll also look at the other to mentioned here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steel609 Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 I have the Kel-Tec PF9 and P11 9mm. I love them both and regard them very highly in function, accuracy and reliability.Not to mention they are very cost friendly. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Yelp the P3AT was only $300, just low on my priority list this fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
