    • Kahr CW380

    The success of the Kahr P380 pistol series led Kahr Arms to introduce a more budget-friendly .380 micro-compact pistol variant called the CW380 in 2013. Before we get into details about the different Kahr P380 holster options, here’s a little more information on the CW380.

    Kahr CW380 stainless steel

    While the P380 model was a good seller for Kahr, it was on the higher end of the budget compared to other .380 pocket guns on the market. The idea behind the CW380 was to offer a more affordable version of the P380 without cutting corners on quality and reliability.

    The CW380 model is modeled on the Kahr P380 pistol and looks almost identical to the P380 in every way, except for the slide markings. The CW380 has nearly the same dimensions as the P380, including overall weight and length.

    Here is where the CW380 and the P380 differ:

    • The CW380 features a conventional rifled barrel versus the match-grade polygonal barrel on the P380.
    • The slide stop lever on the CW380 is metal injection molded (MIM) versus a machined metal slide stop on the P380.
    • The slide engraving on the CW380 uses simple engraving versus the roll marking found on the more expensive P380.
    • The CW380 comes from the factory with one six-round magazine versus the P380 coming with two six-round magazines.

    Like the P380, the CW380 is also a striker-fired, double-action-only handgun. Operationally, the CW variant functions just like the P380 pistol, including the outstanding factory trigger. The CW also features a slide lock for the last round (like the P380), which is a feature that can be lacking on budget-friendly micro 380 handguns.

    Currently, the CW380 is offered in two different configurations:

    • Black polymer frame with a stainless steel slide
    • Black polymer from with a stainless steel and front night sight

    Kahr has previously offered this CW pistol in other color variants, including a burnt bronze version, matte black version, and a limited edition model with gold Cerakote.

    kahr cw380 holster options

    From a holster standpoint, the CW380 is an ideal concealed carry pistol and works exceptionally well carried in an IWB (inside the waistband) or OWB (outside the waistband) holster. The CW pistol is also very popular as a pocket gun, riding in a front pocket holster.

    Our top-selling holsters for the CW380 are (in no particular order):

    FAQS

    Will a Kahr CW380 fit into a holster made for the Kahr P380?

    While these two pistols are not 100% identical, they are close enough in dimensions and frame size that a CW380 will fit into a holster made for a P380. The only exception to that rule would be using a CW380 with a laser mounted in a Kahr P380 holster made for the P380 pistol only.
