Kahr magazines

[White Horseradish]

I just picked up a CW45 and it came with one magazine. I'd like to have a spare, but it seems like every place I looked that listed them cheaper than the $40 Kahr wants for them is out of stock.

Anybody know where they might be available for a decent price?

$40?  Suck it up and buy it.  I mean that in a loving, supportive way.  YMMV.  

$40+ is about par for what Bersa and Star magazines are going for (2 of the last three handgun purchases here at Casa de Internet Pseudonym.)

An autoloader with one magazine is a clumsier reload than a revolver.

I picked one up for my Kahr CW40 at a gun show a while back for $20. That was the exception, I don't think he even knew what it was for.

What is it about certain guns that makes the manufacturer think their mags are worth this much?

HK, doublestack 1911's, Kahr...


Mag price is always a consideration whenever I buy a new handgun.

Production amount, costs of production, etc. AR and Glock mags are cheaper due to economy of scale while less common pistol mags unsurprisingly run $30-40...

Does not compute.

Same argument could be used to say Kahr pistols should cost $800.  Fewer Kahrs out there than Glocks, economy of scale, costs of production, etc.

Many Kahrs do cost more than comparable, more common pistols...

My M&P mags cost more than other pistol mags but you dont see me whining...

The last time I looked at Kahr Arms pistols, they do cost $800.

Not around here.  Not everyone carries them, but they run anywhere from $500's for the more stripped down economy versions, to mid $600's for the nicer ones.  They might hit high 6's with night sites, maybe even low 7's.  But I see Glocks in the 6's with night sights too.

Here is mine, or the same model as mine.
