So yeah, when I first started shooting it, I had to get my gunsmith to do some fitting on it to get it to run right, on both it and its drum. Well, I've got a 1927A-1 deluxe WH made in the late 1970's and when I first got it, it hadn't been fired much if any. I just wanted to say there is always 2 sides. I'm not sure if mine is actually in the minority or if you always hear about the bad but seldom about the good. The 50 round drum (new one w/ the hollow shaft) has worked perfectly. I prob have 400 - 500 rounds through it so far and it has been wonderful. I took the chance and purchased a new Kahr 1927A1 a few months ago. It seems both rifles could need a lot of work to make them run.


Some had valid problems, many didn't have any actual experiences or some had Kahrs that were built right after they starting producing their Thompson in 1999 (are growing pains an excuse?).īuying a new Kahr produced Thompson seemed like a gamble, but I had also read many horror stories on the semi West Hurley's. I read many of the posts on this board per the bad experiences with Kahr. I had always wanted a Thompson SMG, but due to the cost of the real deal, my options were limited. I'm not sure how many thousands of rounds I have through it with never a hiccup.

I bought my 1st Kahr (MK9 9MM pistol) back in 2001 and it has more than lived up to my expectations. There always has to be another side to the story.
