+P in CM9

[HadEmAll]

It seemed that when I tapped the back of the mag against something so that the rounds were all the way against the back of the mag there was no problem...............................

A good habit in any magazine of any type or caliber. I, along with other millions learned it in the military. Tap the back of that loaded magazine against the heel of your hand or your wrist every time.

By force of habit, I still hit myself in the head with freshly loaded magazines. Since I haven't worn a helmet since I got out in 1975, this is a bad habit, but it does bring back memories and a sore head.

u can shoot +P until the cows come home, if u can afford to do that. Uain't gonna hurt that gun PERIOLD.

Jocko, just because a gun is rated for +P ammo doesn't mean that it isn't harder on the gun than standard pressure ammo. If you were to be shot by either at close range I doubt that you would notice any difference.

probably right, just have never heard of a kahr being battered by +P ammo. probably like most other guns damn expensive ammo for just common range fodder so there fore the +P ammo is probalby not shot alot in any semi, although I do feel they can take what they advertise.

I can say without a doubt that in my 32K plus rounds of my pM9 that probably no more than 500 have been with +P ammo, just because of the cost factor as my PM9 is ported so I do not feel the extra recoil of +P ammo like others might. Not sure I can buy a 100 rounds of +P ammo for $20 like I can buy wwb at wal mart for and for paper punching why spend more.

These guns were DESIGNED to use +p ammo. Kahr doesn't caution users about how much +p ammo to use in their guns. Jocko is right about the cost factor, but he is also right that "Uain't gonna hurt that gun PERIOLD."

and we have seen some chrono tests here to from many actualy that show very little velocity increase in so called +P ammo over conventional good brand ammo. Lots of add hype in many rounds and I guess if one round goes 1200 fps and another goes 1250 they could call theirs +P. alot of it is in the eyes of the beholder. Damn I watched a trace adkins documentary today and he is a aeal redneck, oil drilling rig man. Hell his wife shot him thorugh both lungs and right through the heart and the man lived beyond all doctors views that he was a dead man. He said today that if he had one thing he could take back was the comment when his wife was holding the gun on him that he told her he was going to take that gun away from her and beat her with it. Wrong thing to say. funny as hell when he talked about it. even, as he had said he had just put new carpeting down on the floor and didn't want to get blood on that new carpet for he know his wife would really be pissed. Imagaine that a hole thoroght the middle of his heart and through both lungs (one shot) and lived.

no he is not married to her anymore

I do not know the CM9, but I use +p in the MK9 and the PM9 and I do not have any problems.

When I own a CM9 I will carry Hornady CD as I do in the other carry guns.
