I just traded my Sig Sauer P238 (380mm) for this Kahr MK (9mm), I took it out to the range today and put a lot of rounds though her with no issues, I really like this gun and I like the 9mm better than the 380. Now I have to practice and see if I can start hitting the bull’s eye. I was surprisingly happy with the recoil. I tried it in my front pocket and I don’t mind the weight.
