Kahr Arms Introduces Night Sights for C-Series Pistols

June 10, 2015 By G&A Online Editors

Kahr Arms has announced that it is introducing night sights on some of its C-Series pistols.

Three of the company's most popular 9mm pistols — the CM9, CW9, and CT9 — are now available with night sights. These new models (designated CM9093N, CW9093N and CT9093N) have the same black polymer frame, matte finish stainless steel slide and drift-adjustable white bar-dot combat rear sight as the standard models but also feature a pinned in polymer front night sight.

With the exception of the front night sight, all specifications on the three pistols are the same.

The CM9093N, CW9093N and CT9093N are available for $499, $495 and $485, respectively.

As with other C-Series pistols, these models featuring night sights are eligible for Kahr's free magazine promotion. Those who purchase a C-Series pistol between now and September 30, 2015, will receive one free magazine from Kahr.

Below are detailed specifications for each pistol:

When shooters struggle to clear the garment for an appendix-inside-the-waistband (AIWB) draw, it's usually because they can't get the right grip. Using a GEN6 IWB Alpha rig from C&G Holsters to demonstrate, Joe Kurtenbach suggests using a natural reference point like the navel for gripping the cover garment.

Improving The Draw: One-Hand Operations

For any number of reasons, an armed defender may not be able to use both hands for drawing the gun or performing a reload. Appendix-carry IWB holsters like the GEN6 MOD1 from C&G Holsters help simplify these operations by positioning both the gun and extra ammo in a central, front-of-the-body location that is accessible by either hand. Here, Joe Kurtenbach offers considerations for one-handed performance.

Everyone's body is different, and so are the guns and gear they carry. There is no one-size-fits-all solution for siting a holster along the beltline. If you're not sure where to start when it comes to holster placement, follow along as Joe Kurtenbach uses a C&G Holsters GEN6 OWB rig to illustrate how to find the perfect carry position.

CCI Uppercut .22 LR Ammunition for Self-Defense

In response to the demand for defensive-use rimfires, CCI developed the Uppercut for .22 Long Rifle (LR). The projectiles feature nose skiving and weigh 32 grains and are optimized for dependable use in semiautomatic pistol barrels measuring between 2½ and 4 inches. Unlike typical .22 ammunition, Uppercut has been tested in 10-percent ballistic gel, producing 8- to 10-inches of penetration with controlled expansion. Some shooters depend on .22-caliber pistols for defense for various reasons, including increased capacity, hand strength, recoil sensitivity, and dexterity challenges. When paired with CCI Uppercut, the .22 LR offers the potential to deliver a knockout against a violent threat.

Caldwell VelociRadar Chronograph

The Caldwell VelociRadar provides accurate velocity information of projectiles downrange with Chirp radar technology that detects a bullet and provides a complete assessment of its performance. In addition to true velocity, VelociRadar calculates ballistic coefficient (BC) and energy. VelociRadar is not affected by poor light conditions as chronographs with light sensors, and users on a public range don't have to wait for a cease fire to setup and use VelociRadar. A ball-head tripod is included, which makes it convenient for use on a shooting bench. Controls are intuitive, as is the compatible, free Caldwell app that can be downloaded to remotely control and manage data from the chronograph.

Canik TTI Combat: Full Review

Taran Tactical Innovations (TTI) and Turkish firearm maker Canik have joined forces to produce a fully-featured, competition-ready 9mm pistol. The compensated handgun shoots flat and will accommodate a variety of popular slide-mounted red dots thanks to its deep optic cut. The controls are all ambidextrous, and the sub-4-pound trigger is one of the best in the industry. Even with all its bells and whistles, the most surprising aspect of the Canik TTI Combat may be its price. Guns & Ammo's Joe Kurtenbach has the full review.
