Myself and 3 other friends got together for a range day on Thursday. It's nice going to shoot with someone instead of going solo all the time.
Anyhow. I brought my CM9 w/crimson trace and even though I have already put about 300 rounds thru it already I still cant believe how great this gun is. Its almost match like in its accuracy. IMO There is hardly any recoil either for a gun that is as small and light as it is.
I am still working out the kinks so I can power stroke a round in the chamber instead of using the slide stop. Its just about flawless when it comes to power stroking a round in the chamber and usually hangs up only once out of 20 or 30 times of power stroking a round.
Another thing I don't see talked about is the looks of this gun. IMO there's only 2 only 9mm's that look better IMO. Thats the Kimber Solo and the Kahr T9. This gun with its two tone color looks classy as hell on the hip or in the hand. It looks even nicer with the crimson trace attached.
Breaking down and cleaning the gun is WAY easier than when I first tried it. The pin that holds the slide on now pops out without me having to use anything but my thumb. Before I needed a flat tool like a screwdriver to get it out it was so tightly held.
Lastly it fits in the pocket of my sweats or cargo shorts with ease. Which is exactly the role I needed it to play when looking foe a "pocket 9". And in saying that I feel so much better carrying a 9mm instead of a .380 acp in a gun only slightly larger.
I let all 3 friends shoot it but none of them really cared for it but one. One friend stated it was too small and he couldn't get a true combat grip on it. The others didn't like the long trigger pull and no trigger reset. I love the trigger and I can shoot the hell out of it. Out of all my handguns I am the best with the CM9.
I don't see how anyone can past up this pistol if they are looking for a quality pocket 9mm at a decent price. I paid 449.99 plus tax back in March 2013. I see Gander Mountain is selling them for 549.99. I feel lucky.
Thanks for reading.
