I went by the LGS on new years eve (afternoon) just to see if it was still a mad house post Conn shooting. It was. Love him or hate him, Obama definitely earns the moniker GUN SALESMAN OF THE YEAR.
FWIW for EDC I already have a CM9 and a 4" Kimber Compact. Something was missing. Then "it" spoke to me as I happened to pass by the glass case with the Kahrs on my way to look at the M&P Shield. They had a beautiful new black PM40 with factory night sights installed.
Dang........it was calling my name and it seemed as though it somehow already had my credit card number. How did that happen? Might was well take her home I thought...........so I did.
I set out today to take her on her maiden voyage to the range with the intent of breaking a bunch of followers and me bruised and battered by its reported reputation of "snappiness." Snappiness.........you know, kind of like your wife when she finds out you just spent $785 on a pistol. There was also a brief thought of me begging for my G27 back from a buddy of mine since I had come with 250 rds of .40.
Well gentleman (and ladies) I am happy to report that just like my CM9, the PM40 was flawless. Absolutely effin flawless through 250 rds of a variety of 180gr 165gr amd 135gr bullets, range and self defense ammo, and both the standard and extended mags. Accurate too.
The CM9 kind of goes pop, pop, like a typical short barreled 9, but the 40 is more of a BOOM and a push very similar to the Kimber 45. I like it. I like it a lot.
