4K through the PM9

[DJK11]

Just went past the 4K round count through the PM9. Ran 200 today using the 7 rnd. mags without a malfunction. Only one fail-to-feed the first round from the 7 rnd. mag in over 4,000 rnds and that happened wen it was new.

Now I if I could hit the target, that would be great news.

I'm happy!!!

Awesome! Wonder how high mine will get =)

I failed to mention that approximately 2700 of the 4000 rnds. are with the Wolffs 20.5#, 13 coil recoil spring that some assume won't function with the new tapered slide.

Good job. How many recoil spring assembly's have you replaced?

[DJK11]

Just one assembly but now using the second set of Wolffs 20.5# springs. I remove the nut and change both springs. It's the outer spring that's 2lbs. heavier than the OEM.

That's impressive. So I take it that your PM9 is "keeper". :)

[DJK11]

Yes, it's a-keeper. I purchased it in 8-2010 while my month old P380 was back at Kahr for service. The PM9 is great to carry IWB. Not very accurate with it, I hit low left, shoot my PM45 much better. Also have installed the Wolffs 5# striker and x-power mag. springs.

FYI, When I measure the rate of the OEM PM9 and PM45 recoil springs, they are the same at 18#.

Watch this video and see if it doesn't help with the low left problem. Left is usually a result of improper trigger squeeze and low is usually a result of improper sight picture or anticipating recoil and tightening your grip at let-off.
