Any Advice for a newbie PM9 owner???

[border bandit32]

any info appreciated....other than field strip and clean/lube before first outing??

I was going to shoot 100 Winchester White Box FMJ
and 100 American Eagle FMJ (federal) ammo for 200rd break-in
then maybe some 124gr+p Gold Dots...

Damn I feel like a kid on Christmas morning!!!

Sounds like a plan. You have all of the major prep steps, good target ammo and great SD ammo. Enjoy!

Have Fun!! Sounds like you got it all under control, stop worrying and go enjoy it!!

I picked up a 9094 today too. Purchased it from Top Gun Shooting Sports in Taylor, Michigan. First gun I have purchased from them, but they are first rate and I will be back to buy more from them. The other guns shops I go to just don't have the awesome customer support that these guys demonstrate. I did my clean and buff tonight, ordered my CTC and pocket holster. Now I just need to get out and put some lead through it.;)

Enjoy it and don't worry about a few bobbles in the first couple hundred.

Congrats!

I have about 275 rounds through mine. here's the report.

First 100 rounds with Remington 115 grain fmj--no problems
Second 100 rounds with PMC Bronze 115 grain fmj--no problems
Next 50 rounds with Federal 115 grain fmj--1 failure to feed
next 25 rounds with 124 grain Speer Gold Dot hollow points--1 failure to feed
Total 275 rounds

I have some 147 winchester hollow points next to shoot and see what happens.

For advice, I dunno since I am new to Kahr handguns.

I took my new PM9094 to the range today to test fire it. Here is the outcome:
First 100 rounds with Remington 115 grain fmj--no problems
Second 100 rounds with Winchester 115 grain fmj--no problems

At approximately 18 to 20 yards I was averaging within 5" of center. When I was younger with better eyes I use to do better. With these old eyes I can no longer see the sights if I look at the target, and to see the sights I need to look through my bi-focal. So I just aim toward the target and shoot. Each bullet gets closer to center until reload.

I polished key parts prior to the first shoot, and this gun is really smooth.

I ordered this holster from The Holster Store on eBay for $40: ARMS P, PM , CRIMSON TRACE CCW IWB Holster BLKHD (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370257709756)

Got my PM9 about four months ago. I`m around the 1,200 round mark with absolutely zero problems.Nada,nothing,nary as much as a hiccup.It ate all the brands of ammo I fed it,target ammo,self defense all of it.Some mixed HP and FMJ in the same magazine.All eaten up and spit out.I`m as happy as a sissy going to prison.

Pay attention to the manual Kahrs tells you a few things in there THATMUST BE ADHERED TO.

I also put a copy of this chart in the Kahr Tech Section of the forum under it's own thread. This way it will be easy to find in the future. ;)
