Problem with CM9

[yqtszhj]

So I have this CM9 that I picked up as soon as it was available in 2012. Price was about $450 at the time if I remember right but it was much cheaper than the PM9. I dont know how many rounds I have through it but its well over 1000 at least. I don't shoot it as much as I did in the past. At one time I even polished the sides of the slide but decided I didnt like it so it now has a brushed stainless look.

Took it to the range today as I can't remember the last time I shot it. It was my main carry but the CZ and P30sk have been filling that role lately.

Anyway, started off today with the P30sk and fired 100 rounds. Boringly accurate and flawless in function. So I broke out the CM9 next and low and behold it started to sleet. Darn it, then i loaded everything in the truck. I was kinda miffed that it interrupted my range session so I sat in the truck for a minute. Determined not to be stopped I pulled out the 2 mags and loaded them up sitting in the truck. Once loaded I hopped out and went to the bench and emptied the 2 mags at random junk people left behind at the range. Jumped back in the truck and thought "that wasn't so bad." I then repeated the process 3 more times to finish out the box. To my surprise I was able to connect at up to 25 yards no problem. Sights were easy to pick up and POA was POI. Every round went bang and slide locked back on every empty mag.

Hopped back in the truck and something occurred to me. The pistol has never malfunctioned in the years that I have owned it. Soft recoil and a Hogue Handall jr grip sleeve with palm swell makes it fit my hand perfect.

Here's the problem. After shooting it today I actually told myself "why do I need to buy anything else when what I currently own fills every role I have?" I've been looking at all these gun specials online recently at record low prices thinking what should I get while prices are low and all I can think now is nothing is better than what I have. I think I need help and I definitely can't let the wife know that thought crossed my mind.

Now I have to Google a therapist for myself unless you fine people can help me out.

You didn't know I'm a therapist. I have a solution. Send me the CM9, then you'll have a void to fill and justify your need to shop sales and record low prices and have a logical explanation for anyone that deserves one.

I do this as a public service, no charge cept for the CM9 and that's really a gratuity.

Think of the all poor chillens whos mommys and daddies make Kahr Firearms. What will the poor waifs do for Christmas? Don't be part of the economic problems of this country, be part of the solution. Buy a gun, make children happy....

It's not a matter of need - it's a matter of want.

You DO however need a RAMI.

I did get an In stock alert from my favorite online ordering place but good for me it was the safety version not the BD decocker version. Money saved for a day or so anyway.

Now I did see today a used G26 gen 4 with 2 extra 15 round magazines and factory night sites for just over $400. I don't like glocks much but that was tempting as I figure I could resell it for the same amount after playing with it.

But again, I have the CM9 and the HK P30sk so why fo I need it? I don't but as you well said I might WANT it. Then If I did buy the G26 the next day I'd get a decocker RAMI email then I'd be like, Hmmmm......

I got mine for $559 and $25 shipping via Priority Mail.

The same day, I also bought a Glock 19 Gen 5 from my local gun shop for the same price.

I took it to the local indoor range, and they were having a "turkey shoot". The employees and the RSO's were all over me to enter it.

You had to hit a turkey target in the "brain" - about a 1" size outline of the brain at 10 yds. They were all betting on me winning, but I hadn't even fired a round through the Glock yet.

They allowed 15 rounds, and 5 minutes to do it. There's still 2 ziploc gallon size freezer bags of turkey in my freezer.

Here's a RAMI BD for ya:

Well seeing how I didnt let the rain deter me yesterday, i figured there was no sense in letting snow stop me today. 1/2 day vacation and off to the range for shooting in deep south snow.




Carried the xd9 that I bought a year ago or so. It shot ok but All I gotta say is it aint an SP-01. Video for your viewing pleasure.

Such a beautiful place...

We got that snow here in Pennsyltucky today. Almost makes me want to head to the outdoor range.

Thanks for sharing the video.

Problem solved. I bought the G26 I saw. We'll see how it goes. I knew you all could help. Thanks.
