What do you think it would take for Lasermax to develope a laser guide spring assembly for us Kahr owners?

Cool as a gadget. Not practical - it will fail when needed and too many will rely on training with it instead of the iron sights.
From a functional point, the MK/PM series will be murder on the laser.
Other than that, I think they are great. Does LM make for any Kahr?

You're probably right on all counts. I don't know if LM does make any (now I'm going to check).
Here's another one: Maybe Crimson trace could make decal laser grips for the PM9 and PM40. J/K

I think that would defeat the whole point of a Kahr which is its easy to conceal size.

I have nothing against lasers. If they were more affordable, I would use them. They are an excellent training aid for trigger control & flinching.
I just wouldn't be interested in one for my MKs. I see the MKs as an in close (<10 yds.) tool. When I practice with my Kahrs, I use point shooting; opposed to using the sites.

They're pretty handy on a G26 or G27. It's just another aid with aiming. Plus sometimes it can be used as an intimidator to where maybe you wont have to take someone's life. I know, everyones going to jump all over this line so let me clarify: if an aproaching attacker is coming at you (from a distance with a knife or something other than a gun). I know that in 99.9% of the cases of gun to gun you want to get the first round off first.

Alot of my employees are using the LaserMax with their Glocks and have not reported any problems. I know it has saved a few of them on low light situtations. My main trainer uses a Kahr and a Smith & Wesson and his Smith has the Crismon Trace Grips and and they seem to work out for him. On his 1911 he is using Laser Max and has had only one problem and that was holster kept turning the laser on and killing the battery. The only problem I see is someone who relies only with laser and don't know how to shoot without it. For a trained person its a good tool to help.
