Kahr, the maker of functional, well-crafted DAO single-stack pistols, has been missing in action for several years from the cutting edge of the industry. Its products were the same as ever, but that was the problem. The market had shifted back to double-stacks, and then onto mini-9s holding double-digit numbers of rounds. The company that had hit one out of the park with its little single-stack PM9 was languishing back in the minors. Or was it?

It was adopted by that board based on civilian rather than military criteria. The chairman of that board was eager to select designs that could be quickly and economically…
