I'm replacing the XS Sight Systems Big Eye sights on my K9 and am considering the MMC rear sight Kahr offers. Anyone have any experience- good or bad- with them? |
| Installed the new MMC sights this weekend and can say they are a great sight system. Was a bit of a pain in the ass to install as they took a bit of fitting, but once installed they came to zero quickly and are very easy to pick up when doing 'draw-fire' drills and double taps. |
|
Not to hijack the thread but I just lost the front sight on my E9 for the second time in 6 years. What does it take to install the sights on a Kahr E9? Is it the same as the K9? They were the factory sights and I think they are made of plastic. The front sight looks staked but I would rather have a dovetailed sight. |

The E9 sight IS staked in place, unlike the K series. There are a couple of options you have to keep your front sight- 1 is to have a competent gunsmith put in a dovetail on the slide and then use the Novak or Meprolight sights from Kahr. The other is to use an epoxy when installing a new E9 sight. Of the 2, I would pay the money to have a dovetail put in. |
