As I approach my 7th decade of life I have learned to respect and appreciate the weight of handguns. As a Deputy Sheriff decades ago I carried a Colt Commander primary, and a bobbed hammer Model 60 2" as a backup. Wore this setup for years.

When hired by the State for the last 10 years of duty I was issued a Glock 23, and was subject to dismissal with cause if caught carrying anything else. Still hate Glocks, just can't abide them.

Today I carry a Kahr CW-9 90% of the time, and a Smith640Pro on occasion. Practice with both regularly shoot the Kahr better! This is the 2nd Kahr CW-9 I've owned and both have functioned flawlessly for 100s if not thousands of rounds. Gave the first one to my niece who needed a SD weapon that was simple to carry and to shoot.
