Hey all, just checking in! New CW9 last week, was dripping in oil. Wiped off all the excess, took her to the range and put 128 rds of WWB through. Only one FTF, prob my fault, and no other problems. What a sweet trigger pull! And the pistol is way more accurate than I am out to about 12 yds. I was more interested in function testing of the gun & 3 mags than anything else, but so far I'm a very happy camper!

I love the way the CW9 feels in my hand. The grips bite just enough to enable easy control under fire. And am I the only one who actually PREFERS the cosmetics of the CW9 over the P9? It just looks more businesslike, and there's something very right about that!

More rounds, Trijicons, & a good holster coming up! Happy new Kahr owner here!

Best regards.

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on the new CW9! I was going to say you will love your CW9, but you already do. I have more than 1,100 rounds through mine, it is my carry pistol.

Shoot Safe,

nice pistol, I love mine, I have put several 100 rounds through it with only two failure to reset, I was just used to glocks and wasn't letting the trigger rebound completly. I also think you should check the tech section, there is some great info there. and welcome!!

All very good ideas, a good holster is a great idea for a good gun. The CW9 is a very nice weapon you made a very good choice. I love the way the gun looks and I love the way it makes holes right where I am aiming.

Welcome to the forum from Houston. Good bunch of people on here and ready to help answer any questions that you might have.

The CW9 gets even better when it is shot a lot.

Greetings! Recently joined the forum and am alsos new to Kahr. Traded my Taurus 709 a few weeks ago for my CW9. Just got through this weekend with its 200 round breaking in period.

Love the gun! Kahr now has a repeat customer on their hands.

Im a big ruger fan but sense I got my CW9 i have not really picked upped the sp 101 for a while. If I do I will also have the Kahr in the other hand!! Also could be the new gun syndrome.:86:OH almost forgot, I have a Bianchi IWB holster from Cabelas. They have a good selection and usually a CW9 to try them on with.

MW, yeah I can tell mine has already loosened up a bit, it was pretty stout just to rack it before I put any rounds through.

Has anyone installed the Trijicons from Kahr? Been searching around and there aren't a lot of options out there for night sights. And when I say not a lot I mean none that I can find.
