NYPD brass to cops: Stop using Kahr K-9

[1fast8]

if i am not mistaken the african american in the training video they use at carry legal shot himself in the leg with a .40 cal glock

as the wise jerry has in his sig "nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool"

Ya needa keep your finga off your trigger ya seeee

wtf???if you don't want the gun to fire, don't put your boogerhook on the bang switch!!!

Like I said. I'm not saying Kahr should bow to their wishes. 13# trigger pull is just stupid.

I just think that if there is a rash of ND with their weapons involved, they should be taking a more interested and active approach into really determining if there is some problem or not. Instead, they have just met stupidity with more stupidity.

There is a problem. It's called letting an unqualified officer carry a gun. There's nothing wrong with the Kahr they're carrying, it's the idiot behind the trigger, that's the problem. Kahr should change their ad campaign to "So easy, a NYPD officer can shoot it!"

i had a S&W model 64 NY-1 and the DAO trigger wasnt that bad honestly.

Guns generally don't go off without pressing the trigger unless there's a coffee table around.......

I hadn't thought about that epic post in a long time!!!

I don't normally, but I have to plagiarize ridgehunter

LAWLzzzzzz!

That said, NYPD BRASS is not the sharpest tool in the shed and this proves it. Pure stupidity. I bet they are totally kosher with those Kel-Tecs though. High Point needs to make a move up there....

Fixed for you.

Now that's funny!!!

From the class of thinking that brought us the S&W revolver locks........

I'm not saying Kahr should bow to their wishes, but if I were the CEO of Kahr and a national headline like this came across the wire, I'd be looking into it with more detail and expressing how much I value the safety of officers and the quality of my product.

What is there really is some Kahr issue that is related to this... at the very least, I'd be trying to help solve the issue for PR sake if nothing else.

What if they were to come out and openly bash NYPD's lack of training in the media. That's honestly what I'd consider doing if they pulled that crap with a company I owned. Its not like the Moonies need anymore money, hell I'd call 'em out big-time in several public statements and let the media turn their eyes to what NYPD actually does for training - that would be costly for NYPD.

Its like blaming a light-weight gas pedal for high-speed accidents.

Seems to me to be the perfect marketing scheme, "This weapon is not approved for NYPD."

Heck I'd buy one after reading that.

That and if you can get Obama to bash them, it might make for an advertisement worthy of the side of a NASCAR
