good review. this is now my carry gun replacing my G26 not that there was anything wrong with the G26.i loved it at first but then it seemed to grow when you carry them 24-7 but the Kahr is just smaller and in my opinion just as reliable. and even with the crimson trace laser it is still smaller and lighter than my G26. i will always be on the lookout for the smallest 9mm i can find.i have a sea camp 32 but i fell 9 mm is as small as i should go
Looking at the milling at the front of the slide your Kahr looks like a CM9? Did Kahr change the slide on the PM9 by milling that angle on the two sides at the front of the slide?
Im going to get one of these tomorrow. The first time I seen one of these I thought it looked like a cheap pos. Then I started looking at all the reviews and it gets almost perfect rating and is super small. For some reason to me it just looks really cheaply made but just goes to show you looks are not everything.
i just got the k9, its awesome and it fits me real well. i got small hands. i may get the p9 just to alternate when i want something lighter or the pm9. but thats all a ways out.
I just watched another video that describes problems with the first three rounds not feeding properly into the chamber of the PM9. He was not using the slide lock release to chamber the first round, but instead, he was racking the slide (which i believe may be part of the problem, since Kahr recommends chambering the first round using the slide lock release). Have you experienced this problem?
Nice vid I couldn't agree more the pm9 is an excellent little rig, capable of very good accuracy and very reliable. I have over 2000rounds through mine including standard pressure +p and handloads without one single malfunction I trust this pistol as much as my g26. The only thing I dislike is the large slide release.
@Doc6mm Yeah the Slide Release size doesnt really bother me to much its just how sharp it is but ive learned from others if you file it down and round it out...its perfect!!!
@a211pc Yes Ive heard & Seen it,I believe GunBlast Channel did a review on the CM9...Its actually almost the same as the PM9 only the The engraving/stamping on the CM9 are not as nice and the Rifling is standard instead of Polygonal and it also only comes with 1 magazine where the PM9 has 2...To be honest if it would have came out sooner I may have opted for the CM9 instead just cause of the price difference. As far as the LC9,I think Ruger makes a great product but Im not a real fan of the LC9
I saw nutnfancy's review of this pistol too. He raved on it as well. I'm still badly torn between the PM9 and the walther PPS9. Will be at range tomorrow to hopefully test shoot both before I leap.
@lggardner I am in the same boat as you about the PPS and PM9, but unfortunately there is no place in my area to give each a test run. If you don't mind, I would like to hear about your experience with both once you get to shoot them. Its kind of putting out that kind of cash on a gun that you don't even know how it is going to shoot.
@archie8323 My experiences with this pistol is it run's great...well worth the money...Just break her in with about 200 rounds and she will be as reliable as you want,its a little snappy but comfortable...
Well Done ! I bought some decal grips for mine . Sand on the outside panel rubber on the bodyside . Gives it a little more grip in the hand . I also filed down all the sharp edges on the slide release . I wear mine in a Don Hume JIT holster . Theres a kydex guy on ebay who makes a great IWB thin holster . Hope you enjoy it :) Gerry
@OilTheGun I put about 150+ rounds in it for the Break in and it almost ran flawless,i say almost because it had one failure to feed and i was fortunate enough to get it on camera but i dont believe it was the pistol's error i think its the mag kind of like what the stock 1911 mags do when feeding...the round was pointing down in the mag well instead of the up into the feed ramp...ima post that vid shortly and youll see...
@OilTheGun By the way if you Buy it youll absolutely love it i think,ive only seen some pics of the LC9 but it looks a little bigger like the Taurus Slim Series...PM9 Highly Recommended!

@PM9s Nope PM9 all the way the only real difference is the asthetic in the milling,the engraving and the polygonal rifling which the cm9 doesnt have!
