Thanks. I should have known. I agree. I had to think about it before selecting this, and I decided that with my lifestyle, I was safe to use it.
The sales guy told me it was the number on back up weapon carried by police, but I don’t know if it was true. It was not part of the sales pitch, because I already paid for it when he said it.
I would not be surprised if the Kahr was popular as a back-up, due to the fact that so many cops carry 9mm’s (often Glock 22 or Smith & Wesson M&P 9mm). The Kahr is so light and concealable compared to full-size sidearms, and of course, the ammo is interchangeable. Smith also has a nice little compact 9mm that even comes with a Crimson Trace laser sight, but it’s over $800.
