Kahr CM4543 45 ACP Sub-Compact Pistol

CM45 .45 ACP Pistol

The CM45 stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of reliable sidearms chambered in .45 ACP. Designed with both precision and practicality in mind, this pistol combines modern materials with time-tested mechanics.

At its core lies the "Browning-type" recoil lug system, providing robust operation and maintaining consistent performance shot after shot. The trigger cocking DAO (Double Action Only) mechanism ensures smooth firing, while the passive striker block enhances safety without complicating function.

This compact firearm boasts a 3.24-inch barrel featuring conventional rifling and a right-hand twist rate of 1:16.38 inches—balancing accuracy with manageable recoil for quick follow-up shots. With an overall length of just 5.79 inches and weighing only 17.3 ounces unloaded, it is ideally suited for concealed carry or as a dependable backup weapon.

The magazine holds five rounds plus one in the chamber, offering sufficient firepower within its sleek profile. Crafted from black polymer, the frame offers durability without unnecessary weight; meanwhile, the matte stainless steel slide resists wear under demanding conditions.

Sight acquisition is facilitated by drift adjustable white bar-dot combat rear sights paired with a pinned-in polymer front sight—providing clarity when seconds matter most.

Textured polymer grips ensure that handling remains secure even under adverse circumstances—a critical factor for any serious shooter prioritizing control over aesthetics alone.
