Kahr Cw45 Capacity
The Kahr CW45 is chambered in .45 ACP as its name implies. This pistol feeds from a single-stack magazine and has feed ramps designed to properly feed every bullet type. Although this pistol has a locked breech, its small size prohibits the use of +P loads as it will throw off the timing, potentially causing jams and misfeeds.
Kahr Cw45 Feature
The Kahr CW45 is an affordable polymer-framed, semi-automatic pistol that operates on a short-recoil action with a tilting 3.64 inch barrel. Designed for effective concealed carry, this pistol fires from a double-action trigger pull negating the need for an external safety. The slide is topped with a windage-adjustable rear sight that is angled on the front and back to prevent it getting caught on the draw.
Kahr Cw45 Ergonomics
The grip contours are outdated by today’s standards and the trigger is considerably heavier than many other pistols, but the grip texturing is surprisingly effective. The slide includes grip serrations that flank the rear sight and are very helpful when fighting against the heavy recoil spring.
Kahr Cw45 Concealability
Although the CW45 is technically a compact pistol, its overall size makes it difficult to conceal without the employment of a good holster and loose-fitting attire. The one benefit that this pistol has is in its rounded edges and slanted rear sight that prevents the gun from digging into you while you’re carrying it.
Kahr Cw45 Fit-N-Finish
The CW45 was designed for concealed carry on a budget, and with that, there are some aspects of the gun that some would consider to be an eyesore. That said, they work well and they’re quite durable.
