I am new to Kahr and wanted to report on my first range trip with the awesome little CM9 ->>
Put 225 rounds thru my week old CM9 last night and I must say I am very very happy. I am a long time Glock shooter, but wanted to try a Kahr owing to its size and potential comfort of carry, so I purchased the CM9. After reading many reviews before I purchased, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I am pleased to report, with only a quick cleaning and a few drops of oil, my new CM9 was flawless - No failures to feed or eject. Not a single issue. Magazines worked wonderfully (I only used 6 rounders as this will be what I will carry).
150 rounds Winchester 115g FMJ
50 rounds Federal 115g FMJ
25 rounds Speer Gold Dot 124g JHP +p
Accuracy was nearly on par with my beloved Glock 26. I shot at 7, 10, and 15 yards. I suspect this will improve as I work with and shoot the CM9. Recoil didn't seem really significant to me (not much more than the G26...just a little snappier) and I could have shot many more rounds...and would have, but my range time was up for the evening. All in all, I am pleased with the quality, shootability, size, and reliability of the CM9. I nearly purchased the PM9, but am happy with my selection. While the CM9 won't replace my Glocks, this Kahr will soon become my primary pocket carry pistol. Really nice pistol. Really nice! :D
