View Full Version : New CM9... not too bad!

My normal carry is a CW9 in a Galco IWB holster... my idea of the perfect carry pistol (even moreso than my P45.)

My truck was broken into this past week and the only thing they stole was... my CW9. :40:

Went to the gun show (actually 2...) to get a replacement... but the CW9's are long gone. Plenty of .40s and some .45's, but hardly any 9mm Kahrs. A friend of my wife had tables there and they were stacked 3 deep trying to get in there. Thankfully, he saw my wife and came over... I asked him what he had and he had 1 CM9 left... so... SCORE!

Took it to the range yesterday and ran about 125 rounds through it... not ONE failure of any kind. 100rds of RP 115grn ball ammo, and 25rds of Hornady 135grn CD, and a few rounds of Speer 147grn GD's. The shorter grip takes a little getting used to (I wound up using the CW9's mags to help with control) and the trigger is a bit heavier than my CW9, but not terrible.

It did exhibit one little issue... it shot low, much like my 2nd CW9 (I had 2 CW9's, one shot very low.) At about 25' it was shooting about 8" low. There isn't really anything I can do about it, so I'm just going to live with it.

Here it is with my High Noon... :amflag:
