CW9 Shooter

Anxiously awaiting pick up day for my new CW9 (9 more to go) and found this forum through a search. Very impressed with amount of info here! Looking forward to shooting my new CW9 and working up some loads for it.
Presently own a CZ P01 that I've 'tweaked' and am happy with. Thought I'd use it for CC until I handled the CW9 at my dealer's shop. The CW9 is so much more compact but still fits my rather large, long fingered hand well. Hopefully it shoots nearly as well as my P01. :)

Welcome to the forum! :) There is a wealth of valuable information in the New Member Area (http://kahrtalk.com/forumdisplay.php?f=56) and the Kahr-Tech (http://kahrtalk.com/forumdisplay.php?f=27) sections of the forum. It is very important that you follow the instructions when reassembling the gun and inserting the slide stop lever. In fact, there is a take-down video on the product page of the Kahr website. Look below the picture and click Videos.

My favorite carry holster for my CM9 is the PJ Holster IWB with Over the Belt Clip (http://pjholster.com/?page_id=37). I'm a lefty and I wear it at about 8:00-8:30, where it is so comfortable that I cannot feel it or the gun there. It becomes one with my body, doesn't shift around when I move and so it just vanishes from my perception. I literally have to reach back there and touch the gun to know it is still there! Oh, and Coach Paul is a great guy to do business with. :yo:

The Kahr is not a target pistol and it takes a while to master that lo-o-o-n-n-g trigger pull and not pull the gun off target. Like a double-action revolver, you want to do a quick, continuous stroke and let the bang happen without anticipating it. Also like a revolver, you have to fully release the trigger to reset. The gun will outshoot any shooter. Just sayin...
