I am debating between getting the 9mm Kahr or the 380 Kahr. Still pretty new to guns and but have shot both 9mm and 380. Not really too sure if one cartridge would be better than the other. This will mainly be used for home defense but I would also like to use for the range as well.

Question

James G. · Answer

Eldridge, I would recommend going with the 9mm pistol. This is due to better ballistics, better ammo selection, only slightly larger pistol and will serve any role the 380 can then some when it comes to life or limb.
