New CM9....

[crzoomb]

After having carried an MK40 since 2000 the weight became too much.
i bought a CM9 for $255 shipped off Gunbroker.
Yesterday I put 150 rds through it.....Holy cow , what a firearm.
shot great, ragged holes at 20 yards.handled great, trigger got WAY smoother .slide release easier too with full mags

I wish I bought one sooner....

.380 is next

Congratulations!

They are good pistols. Congratulations.

Glad you are happy. I'm well pleased with the one I have. I used to carry a five shot Airweight...like the CM9 better for pocket carry.

Good for you.....glad you decided to buy a CM9. I think they are a very unrated handgun in the public's eyes......as are most Kahr firearms. You may not want or need them, but the two items I added made my CM9 even more near perfect than before. A front fiber optic sight and a beaver tail grip. SAM_1469.jpg

Love mine, glad you’re having the same experience. Kahr’s are always a solid choice.

May have to give that beaver tail grip a try Mike_usn_ret

Hi Mike,
Thanks for posting that picture. Whose beavertail grip add-on is that..??
I need better "fill" in my hand with the CM9. That might be a good choice.
Still trying to manage a good double-tap beyond 3-4 yards. The loonnnggg trigger pull, and thin grip is giving me problems.
I'm also going to try a 7 round magazine for more length...better control between shots.
My first shot is always good thanks to the great trigger pull but keeping that second shot where I want it in a double-tap is a problem.

I wonder if the users of sleeves w/beavertails could comment on if they felt any difference in the recoil sensation. I would think anything that raises the gun higher in the hand may increase (just guessing) recoil . I use my CM9 as a competition gun besides as a EDC, and have kind of given up on double taps beyond 5 yds. prefering to stick with controlled pairs out to 30 yds; the difference in 1/1000th. second between shot splits is not worth the 1, 3, or 5 sec. of added time because of a less controlled second shot. as a carry over from my Service Rifle Match days, I unconcousely stage my CM9 trigger .

Not sure what grip Mike is using but a Hogue handall jr. works well on my CM9. Provides just a little palm swell to fill the hand.

I prefer the Pachmayr grip sleeve...…………..doesn't have the finger grooves. If you like the beavertail idea, I use a Limbsaver on my HK. The Pachmayr swells nicely in the palm.
