I had a fellow kahr member PM me and he ask a good question. I cannot give an affirmative answer , so here goes.

Hewant sto buy a new PM9 and wants to know of the old style blunt nose slide and barrel will fit on this slide. Kahrs tells him no. I contend there is no difference in the lower frames. can u guys et me straight on this and also be helping him also.

GB6491 this should be right up ur alley....Just sayin

CJB u had a blunt noe stolen and recently bought a new style pM9, , ur thoughts also.

Muggsy, no comments from yhou what so ever. This is a question for intelligkent people to answer so take a seat and LISTERN.

I sit next to Muggsy, upwind of course. I honestly don't know. I can't see why it wouldn't work but I really don't know.

LISTERN. Jocko I think you just invented a new word.. combination of learn and listen!!!

[CJB]

Afaik no frame difference that i have noticed.

[muggsy]

I'm waiting for GB's answer with bated breath. I'll try to hold my tongue, but it's kinda slippery. Bawanna you would be well advised to sit up wind of me. Yer momma didn't raise no fools. Jocko, I'm surprised that you could spell affirmative.

I just looked at my new frame... I dunno, but it looks identical.

Looking at the firing mechanism - aka the pseudo lockwork - it looks like they could not change any relationships there, nor the relationship of the slide stop for locking with the kidney cutout in the barrel, and their relationship to the magazine/feedramp placement.

The only possible change I can fathom to expect is the relationship of the front of the frame, where the slide's recoil spring hood fits the frame. To me.... there is not .1 inches difference. I just don't see the extra length, nor do I know if that length is needed, as the newer slides may just have a longer hood area.

BUT.... lets play devils advocate. Say Kahr has lengthened the entire recoil stroke by that .1 inches, and both slides have the same hood length. If thats true, you'd expect the shorter slide to fit in the longer frame.

I think we're good to go. Somebody shoot me down tho
