The CW line is a less expensive line of Kahr. Actually better for casual loading too. The barrel is conventional cut rifling and the slide release is a MIM part. They cheaped out a little on the sights too but otherwise it's the same as their overpriced models. You can't go wrong for the paltry money.

Does it chamber factory ball? I've never had a Kahr .45. You might contact them about it. Worth the effort. It might be the throating?

The fancy P45 models have dovetail sights, a little different slide machining, milled slide release lever, and Walther-Lothair Polygonal bore barrel. They also come with an extra mag that the CW does not.

That long smooth pull is due to the cam action of the striker pull, as one travel lever loses mechanical leverage another takes over to finish the pull. It feels like one smooth pull, but it is actually two stages. I find them quite accurate. I own a P380, PM9, and P40. My P40 is the same size as a Colt M1903 .32 Auto but has 3X the power and is several ounces lighter at 16 oz., it's amazing. I'm not a dyed in the wool fan, they were a deal, light and small. I can hit with them. The one to watch out for is the PM40. I personally think it is simply too much power for the small package. They originally had mags coming apart in recoil but I think they may have that sorted. You can often find them about 1/3 of retail as they kick like the devil. Usually Kahr have horrible resale value, better just to keep them around for a rainy day.
