Kahr Arms X9

Since its inception, Kahr Arms has been most well-known for its single-stack line of concealed-carry pistols, but, in 2025, the company is moving into the double-stack market with its new Premium X Series.

The line’s debut product is the X9, which measures just more than 6" long and nearly 4.5" high with a 3.54" stainless-steel barrel.

The gun weighs 17.6 ozs., and the new double-stack design offers a flush-fit magazine capacity of 10 rounds of 9 mm Luger; a second 10-round magazine with a grip extension is also included.

Typical of Kahr designs, the X9 uses a long, double-action trigger and has no provision for a manual safety.

The push-button magazine release is reversible, and the slide is milled to accept red-dot optics of the Holosun K footprint.

MSRP is set at $549. For more information, visit kahr.com.
