First Range Report for CM9

[berettabone]

old-timer.....sometime post a photo with that grip sleeve installed on your gun. thanks

I prefer the Pachmayr grip sleeve myself...…………………………...

[CM9]

Hmm.......I think I may try one of those on my CM9.......thanks for sharing.

Shot another 55 rounds today (50, 115 gr, and 5, 147 gr. all were Lawman ammo). I had only one early mag release in the first mag I fired. No more after that. Kahr is sending me a new mag release spring and mag release. Hopefully, that will stop the premature dropping of the mag. So far I have 305 rounds through it and accuracy is great for a defensive pistol. I put in a 5 lb. Wolff striker spring and that made a big difference in the handling of the gun, as well as accuracy. For $3.50, a good investment.

Here is mine with a bike inner tube that works perfectly well. I use them on most of my guns.

Just got one identical to yours (with the black cerakote). So far haven't found any specific grip gloves for it. What size inner tube are you using? All the grip gloves I've seen seem to be for slightly different Kahr models.

A member on another board, put a Hogue Handall that was made for a Sig P365 on his CM9. He said it fit well. I have had Hogue Handalls on a couple of my P and S Kahrs and they feel and work very well. Hogue doesn't make them specifically for the PM/CM,MK models so I was glad to hear that those made for the Sig work well.

Congrats on your CM purchase!

SAM_1469.jpgI am sold on the Beavertail grip from Hogue. I installed the 18400 on my CM9.

Good to know! That one is made for some S&W M&Ps and the Ruger LC9. Now there's even more that will fit.

[rahkkahr]

Thanks for the replies and info on the fit of some other models. I assumed some others might fit and now I know. I do somewhat like the idea of the inner tube though - not just because it's likely cheaper but it looks thinner than most other types and I bought the Kahr as a pistol when I want minimal size and weight and still have 9mm.

If thin is what you want, these are great. A Talon Grip is on all my Kahrs except my MK9 with the wood grips. Doesn't grab clothing (rubber ones).

I like the Talon Grips, but....If you're forced to leave your pistol in a hot vehicle, several times, such as, while at work. The Talon grips will start to come off/slip a little after about 5-6 times. I ended up having to slowly remove pieces as they lost their adhesion.

[oldtimer]

Overall I tried most and prefer the Hogue beavertail but I have a fairly large hand and I use the same type grip on all my pistols in order to have a similar fit. Very little felt recoil with the Hogue on my cm9.

I have a Tuff1 grip on mine. A tad thicker than a bike tube and grippier.

it is a regular 26" tire tube. You have to stretch it, but it holds tight and does not add girth to the grip.

I got about two years out of the Talon Grips I put on my CW380, for exactly that reason. If I have to spend $20 every two years, I can live with that....

My CM9 took 400 rounds and a new recoil spring before it started working reliably. No problems since.
