Outstanding, jmonte!

I am a lefty

I’m a left handed shooter so using the slide release to load the first round is a bit inconvenient for me. So, I’ve been practicing (with snap caps) using the index finger on my weak hand to manipulate the slide release instead of slingshoting to load the first round. It works pretty well and is becoming second nature. I also polished the outside of the barrel and “cleaned up” the follower in one of my mags (I left the other two alone).

I put 300 flawless rounds through the gun today. Very happy with the way it performed. I shot with my strong hand, weak hand, two handed, one handed trying to get the gun to malfunction but it wouldn’t. The only thing I stayed away from was slingshoting.



Today brings my round count to 650. All of my issues were within the 200 round break in period so that makes 450 trouble free rounds. Next step is to put about 100 rounds of my carry ammo (Winchester PDX1 124gr +P) and if that performs well then I’ll be ready to start carrying.


I was having a bit of buyer’s remorse after my last trip to the range but today I’m quite happy with my purchase.

shooter and acxtually I have zero issues what so ever working the slide release on any semi made. I am as fast as a rightie, kand one thing being a lefty is not gonna do is acidently hit the slide release butrton with ur thumb, so, every semi that I have owned has the slide release on the left side.

well as i stated in my other posts, my cm9 performed flawlessly at the range - my new most favorite gun - much more than the k9 and the cw9

this is one hell of gun design that is just incredible if you operate it as instructed per manual

the pearce grip or the 7rd xtended grip is a must for the range with the cm9 imo
