say what you will about the barrel in the PM9, but my PM9 will drive tacks. My CW380 and CW9 are strictly "get off me" guns - accuracy is poor.

I would say it is how often and diligent you go to the range and train. I shoot at least once a week and you will always see me shooting a Pocket gun or Micro 9mm or small revolver. I fell in love with shooting a Pocket gun over 10 yrs ago and it became my niche as a shooting enthusiast. I find the Kahr CW380 and CM9 extremely easy to shoot tight groups with rapid fire out to 10-15 yds. I really do not see how a different barrel could improve much on this. Not where he would be significant. Maybe target shooting out to long ranges, but I do not do that kind of shooting.
I've owned the CM9 and it ran well. I just purchased and am enjoying a P9 I picked up for $369.00 new and shipped I shoot the longer barreled P9 better than the CM9. If you don't shoot regularly and dedicate range time and ammo to learning and being proficient with the CM/PM series you're doing a disservice to yourself. Carry convenience will not make up for poor or slow marksmanship if needed. Train.
I believe the FBI about gunfight distances. Therefore I do most of my practice at 10 feet without using the sights or bringing the gun up to eye level. I do still see the value in 10-15 yard shooting and practice it regularly. So how much difference in accuracy one barrel has over the other seems like a very minimal thing to me. JMHO.
