Picked up a CM9 on 8-6-2011. After hearing some good things about Kahr pistols. I decided to give one a try.
The mag released with tons of drag. That was NOT acceptable for me. But after finding a thread on Kahrtalk.com about swell at the top of the mags. A quick check confirmed that was my problem. Quick pinch with the channellocks, problem solved!
Now for the best part. I expected it to be pretty snappy. After having owned a Kel-Tech PF9. Definitely not the case with the kahr. Minimal recoil, and drops right back down to my aim point.
In the past week I have put 850 rounds through the pistol. Not a single issue. Varied FMJ stuff for the first 200 rounds. Blazer, PMC, Winchester, and Remington. This thing eats everything I put in it.
For carry rounds. I varied these also. Cor-Bon, Winchester Supreme Elite, Federal HST, and Hornady TAP FDP.
The 124 grain Hornady TAP was by far the most accurate in my gun (yours may differ).
Well after a week on the trigger 0 reliability issues. And 850 rounds down range. The CM9 has proven itself as a keeper. And will be the new EDC of choice.
