Not a big deal but just wondered if any one knows what the "CM" in the CM9 stands for. :confused::o

Cheaper Machining? Will have to say that my CW9 has been flawless though.

Probably..... nothing. Certain letters have marketing appeal , varying on product and market..... And it just sort of fits with Kahrs existing naming structure.

At the bottom of the page is a table showing what all of the letters and numbers in their model names mean.

I don't know.

Here is some research material for you Bandrich, maybe the answer is in it?
http://www.kahr.com/product-reviews.asp

I will take some guesses ???
K = Kahr
P = polymer
PM= polymer micro/mini
CW= carry/conceal weapon
CM= carry/conceal micro/mini

I don't think they would use a word with a derogatory connotation like "Cheap" to describe one of their products, But who knows???

I have read somewhere that the name "Kahr" was chosen as the brand name because it sounded German, which is known for quality. I thought that was kind of interesting.

I think "Carry More". I guess PM must be "Pay More"
