I finally picked up my new PM9 today. Night sights are shining bright and the cleaning preperation is complete. Followed the steps in the Kahr Tech section and everything went smooth. The gun was smothered in oil when I opened it up and it was dirty to boot, so it really needed a good cleaning. Looking forward to some range time tomorrow to see how it does. So far so good...

I agree with seafood guy, I personally think the extended magazine is a "whore". Mine do work OK but I hate um. hate the looks and if I wanted that extra round I would have bought a cw series and just been done with it. The 7 round mag seems j"catch as catch can"
some work fine, most really do work fine and those that done't there are some fixes postedon this forum buy wise members to solve it to. I just think in my little mind that if u buy a cm/PM series kahr ur buying it for ccw, so keep it that. If u practice with the extendfedmagazine that extra agrip lkength gives you a different hold and for may going back to the flush fit mag will change POI . Train the way ur gonna carry IMO.
I have two 7 round butt uglly "chariot" style mags that I have maybe shot a half dozen times in 5+ years.. My PM9 has over 34,000+ rounds through it, and runs much better than an illegal trying to get across our border

My extended mags would work OK if I didn't actually put pressure on the extension part of it. But if you're in an intense situation, and you fully grip it, you will see the angle of the mag can move.
I think this is what is making the gun think it has an empty mag. I'd never carry with the extended mag anyways, I was only using it to break-in my PM9.
This wasn't isolated to my PM9, as it also happened on my PM40.
But other than that, 200 rounds of Blazer Brass 9mm 115gr in an hour and a half, and 10 rounds of Speer Gold Dot 124gr fired without any issues.

Congrats on the new PM9. You'll have a great carry pistol after you get it broken in.
If you haven't already considered it, look at a grip extension. It won't increase round capacity but it does give you a nice extra surface for gripping that really is nice for shooting. The flat base is great for concealment but an extended base on a backup mag is an idea to consider.
Have fun at your first range visit. I shot 260 rounds on my first visit with my CM9 and it was a fun pistol to shoot.
