P380 vs PM9?

[kahr360]

I’m familiar with PM9 (in my experience it’s been bullet proof).

How is the reliability of the P380 compared to the PM9?
Is it any more finicky when it comes to ammo, is it more sensitive to limp wristing and other improper holds than the PM9?

And is it harder or easier to make fast follow up shots?

Thanks. :D

the P380 is one dynammte little pocket rocket, made exactly in every detail to the PM9 but scaled down . really a neat peace IMO, but that being said, I own them both but never carry the P380 hardly at all. My PM9 can go anywhere my P380 seems to want to go and there certainly is a differencein the firepower.

I just recently got my P380 back form kahr with the new xs big dot night sights on it. The P380 IMO and I have had kel tec and the lcp by ruger. but the P380 is the most accurate 380 I have ever shot and if u read most of the reports by owners they will verify what I am telling you. I shoot it more accurate than my PM9 and that really does piss me off, but it is the truth..

I would think due to size the P380 wold be easier to limp, but I have no issues with mine what so ever and actually over on the P380 forum, one doesn't read of limping the P380 hardly at all, so maybe this gun is good about not doing that.. I can limp my lcp with ease.

I would think the P380 would be as reliable as the PM9. IT is a "shrunk down" version of the PM9, right? I guess the would depend on two factors:

Concealability (both are good, P380 is better due to smaller size

Firepower (the 9mm clearly wins this battle)

I would think it boils down to personal preference

Something else to think about is cost of ammo. 9mm seems to be about half the price of 380.

.380 ammo is ridiculously expensive these days.

If you can find it! TIme to reload!

something should think about the price variation in p380...have to confirm before buy..
