PM45 vs CW45 help me decide

[MichSteve]

I would like to hear from owners of CW45 and PM45; maybe someone who has both.

I am selling my Glock 23, and I would like to buy a CW or PM 45 for shooting and CC. I currently have a PM9 and really like it, so I would like to have another Kahr with same platform i.e. trigger pull, controls ect...

Size is important, however the two are not that much different. What have you found on the two models good or bad and are you happy with the model you chose?

I will carry appendix style.

My first Kahr was a PM9. Since I had good luck with it I decided to get a PM45 this spring.

I looked at both the CW & PM and decided on the PM45. I figured that if I bought the CW I'd always be wondering if I should have gotten the smaller PM instead. :rolleyes:

If you're gonna carry it, go for the smallest one. :madgrin:

Main carry piece is now the PM45 and the PM9 is used for pocket carry. For me, the PM45 is easier to shoot.
I've had zero problems with either one.

Thanks for your input, I pretty much have come to the same conclusion. The PM9 has sure been a great gun so far, knowing that you have replace it for main carry says a lot.

I have both and the PM45 is better for CCW The recoil on the PM was not as bad as i thought it would be

Having just gotten the PM45 I can tell you, you won't be sorry. Best CC I have had the pleasure to carry. If you intend on carrying it don't question it. Get the PM45. It is so small and easy to carry you won't believe it. I am sure the CW is a great piece but as we all know, even a 1/8" makes a big difference when trying to carry.

Just my two cents, good luck with the one you choose.

Agreed. Word for word. IBA speaks the truth.
