    Question of this barrel?

    I was surfing the web and came across this photo of a Kahr pm9 barrel. Now is it me or does it look like its six sided slighty? And if it is, is there an advantage or disadvantage to it? Maybe I am just seeing things though.

    Do you want an AOW or C&R SBS/SBR in CA?

        Well now you can pretty much make out that I am not a veteran in terms of firearms. Thanks for the info. One day I hope to be well versed as some of you gentlemen on this site.

          Some info about advantages of polygonal and some warnings as well. I was wondering about this myself.
