..Just want to say hello and hopefully get a few qustions answerd w/o doing a surch.
..Just bought a new PM9 for pocket carry but have not fired it yet. I bought a Nemesis holster for it because I have used this holster before for several other handguns. It is not a very good fit and it is very hard to draw the gun with, was wondering if anyone can offer another holster suggestion ?
...Also the std mag does not fit tight when inserted, it has about a 3/16 play. Also the ext. mag is hard to insert, seems like it catches on the opening, you have to sort of wiggle it around abit.
....Other then that it seems like a well built gun. Size and finish are great. I hope it shoot goods as well. To the range next week.:yo:

Congrats and welcome!
It hard to draw from any pocket holster the idea is to have your hand on your gun and draw.
Kahr magazines for some odd reason do not fit flush.
Kahr pistol are very tight and at times you will have a bit of forcing in putting or taking out.

Many times just a touch of the mag release button when inserting seems to help things happen. It'll definitely smooth up with time, run it some and let us know how she works out. Lot of PM9 fans around here that luv em to pieces.

Welcome, have fun with your new PM9 it seems to be a fan favorite. It seems that all your concerns are just normal stuff with a Kahr. Just SHOOT, SHOOT, AND SHOOT SOME MORE.

Welcome.

I use a Blackhawk size #4 pocket holster for the PM9. I pocket it in jeans, dress slacks, and shorts--it works great. And the crimson trace LG 437 laser guard also fits in it too. :)

..I had a few other guns that I used with a PH, LCP and a S&W 442..They fit real nice in the Nemesis.I think the Nemesis holster for the PM9 needs some work.
I guess I am a little spoiled when it comes to a new gun out of the box, being a Glock man.
I like the gun alot and can't wait to break it in.:)

I found him. Oilman2010, this is what I was telling you about.

Tomwalshco, that clip don't hinder or slow down the slide or nothing. Must not or I'm sure you would have said something.

Works like a champ. Put it on the slide because it holds better there than on the polymer. No issues with weight or blocking the ejection port.

Order Clipdraw - Universal Clipdraw Fits All Handguns (http://www.clipdraw.com/store/index.php?rn=395&action=show_detail)

Have them on a PM9, P380 and Kel-Tec PF9. Great because you can choose how high or deep you want it to ride in your waistband.

Went to the range yesterday with the PM9 and fired 50 WWB 115 gr FMJ and 10 rounds of WWB 147 gr JHP.
.....I was expecting trouble at first, loaded both mags and started rapid fireing, loaded again until I fired the 60 rounds.
...This gun is DOPE, that is a word Randy Jackson uses on American Idol when he thinks someone is GREAT. This gun is DOPE, never missed a beat right out of the box.
...It's a keeper, fits in my pocket holster great ...Very good control from a small gun, fairly accurate with these old eyes.
........Thanks Kahrs guys for all your help....:cool:
...Just finished cleaning it........Sparkle shimmer and shine...
