Sometimes its nice to a day off from work, errands and chores. Well, today was one of those days. Slept in with the wife and then read a little in bed. After breakfast I brought the kids to church for an Easter Egg hunt and games. Then on the way home we made a little detour and stopped at a local park. The kids had a great time on the swings and slides but it was the hike through the surrounding woods they liked best. Whether it was finding pine cones, slipping and sliding on still icy slopes or trying to skip rocks on the creek, all 4 had fun. Once home we ate a light lunch (because of the chocolate consumed during the Easter Egg hunt) and the kids play with various games and toys quietly. Honestly, I think they were tired out by the hike.
Then I went to the range. I decided to take only one gun today and work on stance, grip, and trigger pull. As the CM9 is my EDC that is the one that came with me. I shot predominantly Federal 115gr Aluminum cased with some TulAmmo BrassMaxx 115gr thrown in. Despite a temp of 27 ℉ there were no FTF or FTE, even using the discouraged method of racking the slide instead the using the slide stop to charge the gun. My shot placement was better than usual and "combat accurate" but wouldn't win me any awards. At the end I set out some old plastic containers filled with water just to have some cheap reactive targets and was rewarded with some nice spray.
Kids now headed to bed and plan on hitting the treadmill before I hit mine. As for the Kahr CM9, I am still pleased with this little pistol and trust my life and my family's to it. Thought about looking at the Glock 43 but this is lighter and smaller and slips easily into to my pocket. Can't see myself see myself replacing it...except with a CM45. ;)
