just got a P9 @ a local gun show (traded a beretta cheetah .380) I think it was made in 05' but never fired. Looks like a really nice carry pistol...................can't wait to try it out(@ the range)

make you a very nice handgun. If you have any issues or questios, pleaee bring them back here, alot of guys here can help you. Take your time with it, shoot good ammo, practice close. Learn to love the looooong but totally smooth trigger...Kahrs are excellent shooters once you get used to the trigger system...

My P9 is an xcellent CCW pistol. I love the trigger. OMG, I am agreeing with Jocko!

Congratulations on your purchase. Don't trust your life on yours until you get 200 rounds thru it with out trouble. Prove your pistol with the ammo you intend to use after you fire 200 rounds of some thing like Winchester white box FMJ ammo.

Good luck, Jim K

Jocko, Maybe you should break in your mag release button.

I have about 3500 rounds thru my P9 now. I lost the exact count. I have to say that is has finally lived up to my expectations. Not a single failure since it was fixed. I'm shooting consistent 2" groups @ 15 yards even after too much coffee. It's a good weapon now, just hell getting it there.

I suggest that anyone with problems with their Kahr product return it to them for a fix. They have an excellent service Dept.

I still have gripes about the initial quality of my P9. For the price of this pistol I expect it to be 100% out of the box. None of my other pistols needed break in just to make sure they worked. I don't think that's just the phase of the moon. Maybe I got one assembled by that guy who was taking pistols home a piece at a time to support his drug habit. Who knows?

Good Luck, Jim K

to me if there was. quite possably you have seen an earlier version and a later version or one that someone has had the slide melted..

The angled slide is probably a CW9.

The P9's are alittle more ornate or "melted".

Yup, probably the CW9, a "squarish/glockish" P9.
