RSR distributors have announced that they are now stocking the new Kahr P-380.

A 2.5" barreled polymer & stainless micro auto to compete with Kel-Tec & Ruger's new mini-.380's.

Let the games begin...

GLO, Moondawg.

What's the tariff reported to be ?

Don't know yet, RSR won't tell you unless you're a FFL registered with them.

In the mean time, if I find out, I'll post it.

MSRP from KAHR:

380
Item No. Product Description MSRP
P380 Series
KP3833 P380, 2.5" barrel, black polymer frame, matte stainless slide
Shipping Summer 2008!! $649.00
KP3833N P380, 2.5" barrel, black polymer frame, matte stainless slide with tritium night sights
Shipping Summer 2008!! $758.00

Don't think they are trying to be cost competitive with Ruger.

Looking forward to seeing some tests on this gun. I've held off on getting the LCP due to the crazy demand. I'm going to get one or the other, just not sure which one.

It's gonna be interesting to see whether or not the "acutal" retail price of Kahr's new offering is gonna come any where near Ruger's or Kel-Tec's reasonable prices.

If they keep to the SIG/HK mind set of "we're a better brand label and worth more" I feel their sales will be dismal compared to the stampede for Ruger's new midget...

This gun should be around the $580.00 range.If it is like the other Kahr's then it is a much better gun than a LCP or P3AT and will justifiably cost more.Ricci.

I was afraid of that....looks like I'll have to buy a used one a few years from now..........

Erich you missed the first part of the Qoute
"Caliber is GOD" Shot-placement is king. Adequate penetration is queen. Everything else is angels dancing on the heads of pins.
Or to be politicaly incorrect.

Sorry to have to disagree with you Chipking, but I think a .22 in the brain is worth more than a .44 in the foot.

Accuracy, accuracy, accuracy!

Unfortunately like most any new product, RSR doesn't have any of these for actual sale. They are allocated, that means after every other dealer gets one, I may get a chance to get one.

Sounds pretty pricey for a 380.

Not neccesarily so,
I got $750 for the last Seecamp .380 I sold and I hear that was a pretty good price. I only had it for 2 days and the first guy I showed it to had to have it!

I fail to see the connection between the Kahr .380 and the above statement. Arguably, the above statement is essentially meaningless, although at first blush it appears to make some sense--sort of like a Democrat. IMO the sights make the Kahr worth more than the Ruger or the KelTec.
