3 out of 5 at 50 yards with a CM9

I just got back from the pistol range. After a couple of hundred rounds with the 22 CZ Kadet at 25 yards, I put two 11" plates on the stand and proceeded to get 38 out of 40 22LR rounds on the plates. I was obviously having a good day. Pulled out the CM9 and fired off 5 rounds and saw that I needed to hold a little high and left. Re-loaded with 5 more rounds and hit the plate with 3 rounds! Not bad for a 3" gun!

I have always been able to do this well with the PM40 but this is the first time I've been able to hit the 11" plate at 50 yards with the CM9. It's all in learning where to hold and then a good smooth trigger pull.

Next week I'll spend a little more time with the CM9 and try to get 5 of 5 in the plate at 50 yards. Gun is capable of it, shooter needs work.

Phenomenal little hand canons, these Kahrs.

Here is the plate, circled shots are the 2nd 5 shot group. One miss is high right and out of the photo.

Nice shooting! I'm sure with a little practice you will get all 5 on the plate. Personally, I'm getting pretty good at putting 50 rounds out of 50 rounds in the 10 ring at 25 yards, with my CM9. I usually put 50 out of 50 through the same hole at 15 yards. My target photos are around this forum somewhere. The CM9 is so easy to shoot, I can shoot it as good as any handgun I own.
