    Default A-grip installation on CM9 with Crimson Trace laser

    I received my A-grips from Kahr today and installed them. Very nice.

    Unlike the instructions, I started installation on the left side so I could precisely position the A-grip notches for the slide and magazine releases that are on the left. There are no obstructions on the right side. Per instructions, I still made the right side the "underwrap side" where the two sides overlap on the front strap.

    I thought I would have to cut around the CT laser's bar containing the activation button where it meets the CM9 front strap and the grip material overlaps. But I removed the laser and installed the A-grip first and was able to reinstall the laser on top with no problem.

    Initially it looked like I would have to trim material at the bottom of the grip. But once everything was positioned I didn't. I did no cutting at all.

    I did find that the grip material's wrap-over at the very bottom of the grip prevented me from using the O-rings I have been using on my magazines to prevent the infamous Kahr magazine finger-pinch. I removed the O-rings, then the mags fit fine. The magazine gap is now almost non-existent. I expect no pinching. So, this is just one more bonus from the grips.

    I ended up with a very clean, professional-looking installation.

    I'm a happy camper.
