I just got my first PM 9 the other day and fed it 200 trouble free rounds last night. very pleased with it!

Have had my PM9 for about 9 mos and have around 1500 rounds through it. Not one issue. I paid $620 for the black DLC PM9 with routine sights. Is very accurate at intended distances.
I am picking up a CW9 from my wife tomorrow.

My other CCWs are an LCP and XD9SC.

Kahr PM9 ...

Had 1 hated it! I tried everything with it. And yes, I gave it a break-in-over 500 rds. It jammed like jelly!

Too bad because it is so small and light. It killed me but I got rid of it. I won't ever buy anything from Kahr again!I sent it back to Kahr but still nothing but problems.


BUT I've read that others have great luck with them.

So...buyer beware!

All guns,cars ,etc have a lemon once in a while ( Check out the Kimber thread you'll even find one there)
But I did a LOT of research and also know first hand the PM9 is one excellent firearm

Sorry you had a bad gun.
But even if that one was a lemon, you seem awful quick to damn an entire Manufacturer's product line from one example of one gun.

I love mine and it's become my everyday concealed carry weapon.
Fits my hand beautifully. Trigger is almost sensuous it's so smooth and silky!
Recoil is practically unnoticeable with normal pressure rounds. Not one FTE, FTF or failure to return to battery in over 500 rounds. Very accurate. Very well built. What's not to like?

I have two friends who purchased PM9's and were ready to get rid of them due to numerous "problems".
Turns out the "problems" were not with the PM9's, but with the shooters themselves. They were "limp-wristing" the guns. One of the guys had VERY large hands. He just COULDN'T get a proper grip.
Once the OTHER guy was shown how to properly hold and fire the pistol, the "problems" went away and he's now a happy and proud PM9 owner.
