Packin'

Aside from my cheesey blog title, seriously, I got my gun now! I'm super excited. My mind has changed so much since the Fall when I first decided I'd actually buy one. It's been a process trying to find something in my price range, small enough for concealed carry, and a gun I'd enjoy shooting. The gun I purchased is called the Kahr CW 9mm. I picked it up this morning, so when I got off work tonight, I came home, took it apart, and cleaned it. It took me forever and I had trouble with a few parts. The gun is really springy when you first get it, so it takes a lot of strength to pull the slide back or mess with the firing spring.


This is how the gun looks in it's case. It's the gun, the magazine, and the lock.


This is when I disassembled it to clean it. It's the spring, the barrel, the slide, and the frame.


The gun reassembled and clean :D



It has a two hundred round break in period. I'm not sure how much of that I'll do the next time we go shooting. That's a lot of rounds, but I think I plan to put at least a hundred through it. I still haven't gotten my concealed weapons permit yet. In a few weeks when I have more money I'll send my paper work. It's fine for now though. I need to get familiar with it anyway. I hope I don't experience any problems with it!

  1. Your gun looks badass. I feel like I'm badass now by association for having a best friend who has a gun. Especially when you get your concealed weapons permit. It'll be awesome just walking down the street next to you. lmao. :D
