Parts interchangability

[hayseed_40]

The Glocks are great because you can carry a G23 and a G27. The 23 mags can be used on the 27. The parts are mostly interchangable, etc.

How interchangable are the Kahr parts (springs, pins, etc)? For example a T40 and a MK40? Can the T40 mags work in a MK40 (I know they would stick out but this is for BUG purposes)?

I read on the Kahr website under reviews "PM40 our pick for Concealed Carry" they said that they could use the PM9 mag in the PM40 but not the other way around (PM40 in the PM9). I dont know what they were shooting through the mag (a 9mm in a .40?)

What is the acronym for " BUG "?

Longer Kahr Mags will work in shorter butt guns of the same caliber. Per your example; a T40 mag will work in an MK40. It will also work in any shorter butt polymer Kahr 40 also.

I do not know about other parts swap ability.

Part interchangeability only makes sense so you can bet where Kahr could they did… but without an actual list directly from Kahr there’s really no definite answer on this one.

If ya look through the KahrShop you’ll see that each part for each gun has its own part number… but ya know darn well, for example, that the Kahr K9 & the Kahr K9 Elite share the exact same “Striker Block”, “Recoil Spring” & etc. etc….
