The CW9 is double action only with an internal striker and locked breech. The stainless steel trigger is exceptionally smooth throughout its 3/8" ride from engagement to let off, with a crisp "snap" at the end. From muzzle to butt, Kahrs CW9 marries sleekness with power. The polymer frame is checkered and stippled for a non-skid grip. This model features factory installed night sights.
