Question about the PM9 and even more interested in how it compares to the CW9 (size, printing, comfort, etc...)
I have the CW9 and I'm wondering how much better the PM9 would every day carry. I am IWB with the CW9 and it carries OK. Is the PM9 Soooo much better it would be worth the purchase? Or..... a PM40?????
All response welcome.

The PM9 is smaller than the CW9. I've had mine for almost a year and carry it most of the time in a Silent Thunder. It conceals very excellently with the Silent Thunder (see sig line link for pics) and I carry all the time so I don't even notice it's there.
I have to keep reminding myself it's there when I go places carry is not allowed. Last time we were halfway through grandsons football game when I turned and felt it. I had to casually get up and walk to the car to put it in the Nano safe.

if ur gonna IWB OR OWB carry, just stick wotht he cw series. you won't see that much difference in either with waist carry. Ifyour gonna pocket carry, the PM9 will certainly be abetter choice IMO. I pocket carry my PM9 24/7 and just don't even notice it is there. I hat eo dress to carry and IWB AND OWB seems to predict some type of dress wear.

Next To my P3at the PM9 is the most comfortable I've ever carried IWB.
I wish I could say something bad about the PM9 once in a while so I don't sound like a brand Snob or and employee of Kahr,but I'd be lieing to ya.
I also love that P3at to.:)

PM9 ? PM40 ?........Why not just step up to a PM45 ? Great stopping power. Carries easily. No bigger than your CW9.
Why carry a "MOUSE" gun, when you can carry a 45acp. ?
Pm45, Hmmmm... I never thought of that?

Thanks for that info on IWB carry. I do front pocket carry a LCP but sometimes would like to have a 9mm instead. That's what brought me to the CW9. I was originally looking at the KT PF9 but the CW9 won me over.
I may need to do a side by side compare with the PM9 and LCP and possibly a pocket fit test. I would be really curious about how that works out. The CW9 is not a pocket pistol but it does carry well IWB and is relatively comfortable. Carried it 6 hours yesterday to try it out and it was no problem.
Thanks

I sold off my first pocket gun, a Colt Mustang Pockelite 380 for the PM9 for increase stopping power. I had planned to pocket carry that and tried out a CW9 but it was too big. Now that I have the PM9 I love it but I always go IWB. Now I really wish I would have gone PM45 as it would IWB carry the same with a lot more stopping power.
