    Talking Got One! Chronograph results added!

    New CM9 just came in today. $380+tax. Already cleaned, lubed and did the mag "fix". 100 degrees outside so maybe next week for breakin. Three more mags and Handall Jr to be delivered this PM so I've got the weekend to do the mag "fix" on them if needed and do some slide snapping. Barrel has rifling too. CW9 in June and CM9 in July. Think I'll take August off from gun buying! Shootin' Report to come!

    Very cool! Take August off, then get a CW45 in September!
    Very interesting...

    That's funny, my LGS had a used one today for $340. Hope it's gone by Sept.

    All four mags had significant "drag" of followers by the mag release? Fixed that per the "sticky" instructions on prepping/lubing. Might not have made any difference since I haven't shot it yet but wonder how may folks have feeding "issues" caused by this?

    That price is too close to a brand new one with the factory warranty. I'd go for the new one. Palmetto State Armory does free shipping and has some great prices at times. Cheaper Than Dirt will do short lived sale prices that you have to jump on when you see them.
    Very interesting...

    I bought my CM9 in February, took it home and stripped/cleaned, took to the range and shot it. The next week I bought another mag at a gun show, took the CM9 to the range and shot it. Then, I shot it again the next week. What's with the idea that you need to "fix" something that most likely ain't broke to begin with?

    just asking

    You're probably right. I read a bunch on the forum before I bought CW9 and Jocko's sticky on prepping new Kahr under Kahr-Tech mentioned failures to feed sometimes caused by mag followers dragging on the mag release. It covered how to test for this and the fix was just filing/sanding a little on the follower where it came in contact with mag release. Several of my CW9 mags had the drag so I followed the instructions here and she's been flawless so far. Ain't shot the CM9 yet. May have not made any difference?
