Variants

In 2003, Kahr Arms introduced Elite versions of the MK9 and MK40.[1] The elite variants feature a polished stainless steel finish and a laser etching on the slide.[5] In addition to an enhanced look, the magazine well is beveled to facilitate easier reloading, and the feed ramp is polished to insure reliable feeding.[5]
