I bought my first Kahr last fall, a CW380. Love the gun, question the cartridge. Already had a Shield 9 and love it too. Then I saw the CM9 on sale for $246. The Shield won't be getting carried as much now. I needed another carry gun like I needed a hole in my head but I'm sure glad I bought this 2nd Kahr. Carries great, shoots great and looks great; what's not to love?
