Kahr aftermarket adjustable sights?

Does anyone know if someone makes a fully adjustable rear sight for Kahrs dovetail? I don't think so but I figure someone here knows for sure.

If available, the Kahr web site would have them for sale I would guess. Try there.

I don't think anyone ever made an adjustable rear sight for the Kahr that could use the standard front sight.

If the gun isn't targeting, you move the rear sight for windage and I think Kahr sells higher or lower front sights.

no gun works perfectly fine. I just obviously want to mess with it now.

I've just never seen adj rears for Kahr pistols and was curious if such a sight existed.

Not that I've seen. It would make sense on a T9 though.

I have tru-dots on several pistols, one of which is a Kahr K9. I really like these because they are very easy to pick up in day light, due to the white outline of the tritium vial. Good sights. Kahrs are notoriously hard to replace sights on, as they are very tight. The front sight in particular has little to push on.

A company by the name of MMC used to make adjustable rear sights that fit Kahrs. I had a set on my K40.
They are no longer in business though.

well i guess that sight is adjustable for elevation but needs to be drifted to adjust windage... Something worth considering I suppose?
