Great gun for the money
Bought this as a CCW and couldn't be happier. Nice balance, nice flat size for easy concealment. Shoots great with no problems. Ran about 250 rounds through it to break it in and then tried different 'defensive' loads of all types. No problems with feeding or extracting. Over 1000 rounds through it and not one malfunction. Only thing I could possibly improve on would be the trigger pull. It's a little heavy for my liking by quite acceptable. Maybe a trigger job? But, for what I bought it for, I think it's a great gun for the money.

What a carry pistol ought to be.
In my humble opinion, This Kahr CW 45 is all about what a defensive carry weapon ought to be. Built blood simple yet rugged and just awesome fire power. I have had ZERO failure to feed or failure to eject episodes in over 500 rounds fired down range. This pistol is accurate and relatively easy to shoot accurately once you become familiar with the trigger. I believe the Kahr trigger system is the best of all double action only pistols bar none. I carry it everyday in a Remora reinforced top holster. Just doesn't get any better for it's intended purpose.
