Kahr Arms X9 Kx9094Rd10 9Mm 3.54 Or 10R Armrblk
The Kahr Arms X9 is a modern double-stack 9mm compact pistol built for shooters who want Kahr's legendary trigger and reliability in a slimmer, higher-capacity package. With a 3.54" barrel, textured polymer frame, and blackened stainless slide, the X9 delivers the precision and durability Kahr fans expect—now in a double-stack format that holds 10 rounds per magazine. It's designed for concealed carry, duty use, and the range, with thoughtful ergonomics like an undercut trigger guard, enhanced beavertail, and an inset backstrap that works especially well for appendix carry.
One standout feature is the optics-ready Holosun K footprint cut milled directly into the slide, so you can mount a modern red dot without gunsmithing. That flexibility, paired with Kahr's legendary safe-action double-action-only trigger and lever-based takedown system, makes the X9 a no-nonsense option for someone who values simplicity and purpose-built design over tactical bells and whistles.
The X9 ships with two 10-round stainless steel magazines, white bar-dot combat sights for low-light acquisition, and front and rear slide serrations for a solid purchase during malfunction clearance or tactical reloads. At 17.6 oz unloaded and 6.125" overall length, it sits in the compact-to-midsize range—controllable enough for the range, slim enough for daily concealed carry. Every X9 backs Kahr's lifetime warranty, reinforcing the company's confidence in its engineering.
