The Kahr PM45 is the most compact .45 ACP polymer-frame pistol in its class — a true pocket-carry .45 ACP that measures just 5.79 inches in overall length, stands 4.49 inches tall, and weighs 17.3 ounces unloaded. At 1.01 inches wide, it conceals as readily as most 9mm pocket pistols while chambering a cartridge that remains one of the most proven defensive rounds available. The TruGlo tritium night sight package adds a low-light aiming capability that most competitors at this price point omit.
The Kahr PM45 is a double-action-only semi-automatic pistol chambered in .45 ACP, built on a black polymer frame with a blackened DLC stainless steel slide and a 3.2-inch Lothar Walther polygonal rifled match-grade barrel.
The Lothar Walther barrel is contract-manufactured in Germany to match-grade specifications and uses polygonal rifling for improved accuracy, reduced lead fouling, and a longer service life compared to conventional cut rifling. The DLC (Diamond-Like Coating) finish on the blackened stainless slide provides a non-reflective surface — a practical advantage for a carry pistol — along with superior hardness and corrosion resistance. The smooth DAO trigger delivers a long, consistent pull of approximately 5.25 pounds with no staging — a pull that aids in preventing accidental discharges during the physical demands of carry. TruGlo tritium night sights provide an illuminated aiming reference in low-light conditions. The drift-adjustable white bar-dot combat sight configuration pairs a white vertical bar rear with a dot front for fast sight picture acquisition. The stainless steel slide rides on steel inserts within the polymer frame to prevent wear at the metal-to-polymer interface — a Kahr engineering detail that contributes significantly to the PM series' long-term durability. The textured polymer grip provides secure purchase without abrasion. Three 5-round stainless steel magazines are included.
