I Love My CM9! Should I Get a Second One?

[Ikeo74]

NO NO NO, Don't buy another CM9............Get a PM9 or better yet a MK9. Every thing will be interchangeable. Mags, holsters and ammo. Get the best of both or all three. I pocket carry my CM9 and belt carry my MK9. When you go to the range you will have extra magazines too.

how is the trigger on the mk9 compared to the pm9?

Thanks. I thought about getting a PM9 instead but so many people ask, "Why pay the $200 extra for basically a polygonal match grade barrel in a pocket gun?"
They make a good point, y'think? That and the machined slide stop and trimmings. Worth the extra $200?

I agree with the mk9. I have a pm9 and an mk9. They are the perfect companions.

If you get the pm9 in black like I did, with night sights, it will make all of the difference in the world. It was worth the extra money for the PM9 to get the black.


By the way, PM9 and the MK9 have the same trigger

I was thinking of getting the mk9 at one point, but ended up with the pm9. No regrets here! but it would be nice to have an all steel frame also.

The thought occurred to me....but then I quickly thought...Heavy! I like the aggressive front and back strap on the polymer Kahrs too. Does the MK9 have smooth ones?

Yeah. Heavy compared to polymer. But it will be more fun at the range. And will do for carry in a pinch. Wood grips with checkering and/or some skateboard tape should work for your grip. Plus it's dang good lookin'. Try shooting one if you can.

If you are thinking about the k9 nypd triggers, don't worry. The mk9 trigger should be the same as your pm9 or cm9.

All steel 9mm are a dream to shoot. My CZ and HK P7 are good examples. MK9 with the wood grips is a beauty! IDK, decisions decisions...Then again, jocko made a good point earlier. You don't need a back-up of the same gun. The CM9 will outlive you if you treat it right. I'm starting to realize he's right. Besides, what am I gonna do? Buy a back-up of every pistol I own. Think I'll follow his other long-time advice: Just shoot it like you stole it.

[b4uqzme]

Yeah but a fun decision at that...

Truth is I think you guys all have me convinced to pick up a cm9. Dang! Would be my first polymer.
