Always keep your striker channel clean by detail stripping the slide at every few hundred rounds. Use spray degreaser/cleaner to flush off the gunk inside. It is also good idea to replace the striker...

I have found mags priced right for my PM9s on eBay. In addition to the spare parts and springs you listed, I would get slide stop spring and definitely cocking cam spring because they get damaged or...
I’ve got one of those myself. It’s one of my favorite CCWs. Very reliable and concealable.
I submitted my request a Couple of years ago, and am still waiting for it. In the meantime, I am switching my go-to CCW to Glock 43 with Magguts, which has been working flawlessly.
One good thing about Kahr is that they make all parts (except the frame) available to end users and owners through their website. So, you can replace any worn or damaged part in your used gun with a...
Congrats on your new acquisition. PM9 is one of my favorite carry pistols.
Great to hear that, ltxi!
I'm a big fan of the Magguts system. All of my 6 rounder mags for my P380 have Magguts, making them 7 rounder mags in the original 6 rounder size. I've not had any magazine related malfunctions...

Thanks for the report, and sorry to hear about your initial trouble.
I have been using the DPM system in my G43 for a while and I really like it. Mine came with two outer springs, both...
Thanks for sharing your experience. Good to hear another good report on PM9.
I know many Kahr pistols require one less round in a magazine to be able to chamber a round by racking the slide. This is more common among the 7 (and 8) rounder mags than the 6 rounder mags. But...
I don't really think the gun is ugly shape wise. But the frame color is .... Well...., what can I say.... ...
All right! Carry it in good health!
I have a barely used 7 rounder mag that came with my PM9 but I only use 6 rounder mags with my PM9. What's the condition of your 6 rounder mag?
Sounds like your new PM9 is getting ready for carry.
What ammo have you shot to break in your PM9, inexpensive range ammo or actual self-defense ammo you intend to carry? If you have not tested...
Yep, very standard customer service response for sure.
My P380 also had its share of reliability issues. Luckily Kahr sells all parts (except the frame) directly to end users. So I was able to...
I bought the BigDot sights for my new PM9 directly from XS and installed them myself. It was very easy, not complex at all. You need a very sturdy bench vise to hold the slide, a brass punch of the...
I give my guns basic cleaning after each range session and only do deep cleaning occasionally like every 750 rounds or so. I just make sure that every handgun that I concealed carry for protection...
I also buy all of my Kahr magazines off eBay. Just cannot beat the price.
I've also replaced the recoil spring assembly with a new one recently, and noticed that the new version is so much stronger than the one came with the gun. In fact it was so strong that even after...
You got a great deal on a wonderful handgun. Can't go wrong with PM9.
I'm late for the party, but one of my PM9s has an XS Big dot, the other one has came with the factory insalled night sights on it, and I also have a complete spare slide assembly with a tritium front...
I own a P380 and have not experienced any issue with the particular part (though I have had some issues with the original striker). Some individual P380 pistols may need a bit of tweeking, but once...
In the overall scheme of things, it seems that gun modification (unless it is obviously dangerous like putting a hair trigger on a defensive handgun) is becoming a relatively minor factor in a...
Very nice, Greg.
