Bersa guns!

I think the PM9 is one of the best selling guns on the market right now. How is that underrated?

[Dietrich]

I think you might have a point in a way. It has been my experience that most folks that I have shown my PM9 to had never heard of Kahr.Some were familiar with the picture of the beautiful young woman in the Kahr ads but not the firearms themselves.Once they took a look at the PM9 practically all were impressed with the workmanship and style,not to mention the pure fun of shooting it. I don`t think that it`s as much a matter of underrating as of lack of name recognition. With more and more people like us buying Kahrs and extolling their virtues,more and more people will start to take notice. But just for the record,I`ll stack a PM9 up against any other pocket 9 made.There just aren`t any better.The woman in their ads don`t hurt either.

Bersa guns!

I have a Bersa that I dearly love to shoot.When I can find .380 ammo that is. And you`re right. Bersa handguns are the Rodney Dangerfield of firearms.

Here in MA(behind enemy lines) the only way to get one is if an LEO is selling one. We regular folk can't buy them new because they are not on the "approved" list of the AG. Most people who have seen mine think it's too small for their hands. And it barks and pinches their hands. I love it and shoot it very well. I get it that the Kahr model is thin to make a point about the gun, but she's too thin.

Same here, Dietrich, 380 ammo just out of scale (performance vs price) nowadays. I have a Bersa Thunder 380cc which I enjoy shooting, I recently joined the "Kahr club" partly is a need for a higher caliber of which ammo is easy to find.

Has had a SP101 and then a HK USPc40 for the past 20 years but never enjoyed carrying them.... until I discovered the 380cc ... now the PM9 My "CC" ride is just getting better at every turn. But my BT380cc remains a keeper and will be in the rotation.

Too thin? Rubbish!! That woman would look good even if she had snuff running out the side of her mouth.

That is funny, but true! Kahr took the stance that sex sells with that ad!

Yes sir, that was more of what I meant to say... you just said it alot better....I guess I should have said unknown or unpopular instead...thanks Dietrich:33:

I firmly believe it is the most under-rated pocket 9mm and the most under-rated concealed carry pistol.

When you start to compare it to the kel-tec and even the Walther it is head and shoulders better IMO. The Walther is larger and the samples I've seen need a better trigger.

When you compare it to a SW J-frame, it's more powerful than a .38 and conceals way better and is easier to reload. Sure .357s are have more bang, but a few rounds of those at the range and soreness/recoil causes ineffectiveness and thus inhibits practice.

What else is there? The G26 or P2000sk. That's hell-of-a-company to be compared to for being a concealed 9. And the Kahr is thinner than both, which means it more likely to be carried.

Am I missing something/someone?

Pm9

+1

You could not have said it better. I have owned or fired a number of Pocket Pistols and I have to say that the quality of workmanship, design and shootability of the PM9 make for an outstanding firearm. A gun that you like and bond with is the gun you will more than likely always carry. After all that what it's inception was all about.

I agree the Kahr PM9 is very much under rates as both a 9mm and as a cc gun. Shoot if you visit Gundirectory.com you will see just how under rated it is.

we need to keep this kahr thing a secret between just us kahr owners. Will give us kahr owners a better chance of finding more kahrs around to.

Not just a good gun, but IMO a great gun..
