I have been wondering what other Kahr shooters to also. I am working with a CM9 after using an MK9 and I was having trouble with my groups, a little. I think because of the short distance from trigger face to back strap that Kahrs seem to lend to pressing with the first joint or further. When you get a grip from the holster it seems more natural for me to just use the position available, which is not the pad like shooting a single action. Some "experts" at my range say to always use the finger tip pad center for all pistols. I notice consensus here, that the either way will work depending on the individual. Isn't it important to pull the trigger straight back . Anyway that is achieved will work , maybe? My j frame snubby has a long trigger reach but I still get the joint position , mainly for leverage, and it is fine. I think smooth contoured trigger faces allow the finger to slide into the sweet spot , not like a grooved SA 1911 trigger. where the pad of the finger don't slide. Does this make sense?
