  • Get in here KahrHeads and meet my new PM9 !!

    Mods if this would be better suited in P series pistols please move.... I jumped the gun and posted here

    No its not just any Kahr but its my Kahr which makes it better than any other out there by default.. Plan on taking it to the range on Monday for 400 rounds of abuse !!!! Not sure it can hang but we'll see..... : ) Came with 7 mags so loading time wont be so bad...

    This picture Im trying to show a little spot that appears bent back on the edge of the frame closest to the slide rail, is this normal??? it doesn't sit flush with the striker plate....

    My first impressions of this gun are very pleasing, but I'm not so impressed with the case, reminds me of the old Walther (interarms) case, silly I know, and its a case nonetheless.. but the gun feels great in the hand as does the trigger...

    Congratulations! Hope the range trip goes well. It may be flawless but it may also have a few hiccups as it breaks in. I recommend you field strip it and clean it after every hundred rounds, at least during break in.

      It'll hang as long as you do. That's a lot of rounds for the shooter for these small packages but it will keep right on going.
      My first trip with my PM45 went 350 rounds between me and my son. Would have gone even more but ran out of boolits.

          We see that fairly frequently. It's just the tupperware just not quite flush.
          I believe Greg took and kind of tapered off the edges a bit for a more finished look. Some are worse than yours for sure.

            Looking at my PM9, and my P9, the tab on the left side, if you're behind the pistol is flush with the sprng keeper on mine ..... (whatever you call that part) Not sure if that is the area you're talking about, but it looks like it is 'out' a bit. Don't let that ruin the deal for you , at least not until you find out if it is a problem.

                yes the left upper tab, definitely isn't flush with the plate, its way off... its one thing if they're made like that and another if they're not.. all my other guns are flush with plate, I have a cw380 heading my way and I'm curious to look at it for the same thing...

                  Its normal.

                  If I see that pistol right its a pm9j which means if you have a problem the "J" version manual states "its a fokking shooter problem and not a gun problem".

                  Happy shooting.
                  The only thing better than having all the guns and ammo you'd ever need would be being able to shoot it all off the back porch.

                      The rails it uses are the 2 metal rails in the front dust cover that go into the slots on the front of the slide and 2 metal rails at the rear of the frame. The plastic is only a guide for installing the slide. And the notch missing on the left front rail is supposed to be missing.

                      If you think that is not enough support dont look inside a glock or a fnx45. You'll be highly disappointed.

                          There are metal rails imbedded front an back. The plastic is just a guide.

                            Bawanna, you and yqtszhj just ruined a fine opportunity to have some fun with this guy, but since he's an OSU fan I guess that I can let it slide. (Oh for the days when you could post a smiley face on this damn MB.)

                              Its a special polymer frame rail brought to earth by space aliens. Didn't you know that Kahrs CEO's last name is Moon?
