The gap is normal. I have never had any problems keeping my thumb of the slide of my wifes PM9.

Hey guys, I took my new PM 9 out to shoot yesterday and have a couple of questions. It appears that the magazine when inserted has a gap between the frame and the bottom of the magazine plate and I ended up with a blood blister on my pinky finger from it being pinched by the magazine - Is this normal?
Also, how do you hold your gun as I find that my thumb always wants to ride on the slide release causing the skin on my thumb to get nicked and rubbed raw until it bled and the slide not to lock back after the last round.
Thanks

Had the same mag pinching problem, especially with a pearce extension. I removed the pearce and added a Hogue grip, which will cover the gap. only have about 350 rounds thru it, but no malfunctions yet.
We bought my wifes used about 8 months ago, put about 1500 rds through it with no malfunctions
Drew - Did you have to change out the recoil springs yet?
No I haven't had to do anything to it.
