  • would anybody make me some dummy rounds?

    Just got my CM9, and it's my first 9mm as well. I have all the dies for .45, but not for 9mm, and I don't plan on reloading for this caliber. That being said, could somebody make me some dummy rounds that I can use for trigger control practice? I will be willing to pay for them, it just seems that the $15 for the A-zooms is a little high.

    If you just want to pull the trigger, I'm pretty sure you can dry fire the CM9 without worrying about it.

        Your best bet is to just go and buy the snap caps. Then have some one or yourself load a few into the mags (without looking) and fire them off.

          Agreed with others - just buy some snap caps.

          Or use a small piece of metal to hold down the follower when practicing. Just run it through the witness holes on either side of the magazine and put the follower under it. This will prevent your slide from locking back when practicing.

            I have found that if I KNOW there is a snap cap or nothing in the chamber then my form seems perfect as far as trigger squeeze goes, but when u have snap caps, (one or two or whatever) somewher ein ur magazine and mixed with live rounds, then when u hit a snap cap it will show BIG TIME ur ill ways.

            What most shooters do know that flinching is related to the BANG THING HAPPENING. U don't know ur flinching when the BANG thing happens as u are now anticipating it. Let me put this in a way most of ol timers can relate to.

            If I fart every time I shoot a round that makes the bang thing, and my shots are low right. I maybe think.... damn gun something is wrong with it, but if I am shooting , I may not be thinking that my farting is causing it. Then when I hit maybe a round with a dead primer and I still fart and jerk the trigger badly. Then I have to admit it is not the gun.

              Excellent analogy.

                      Actually, the problem I have had with the aluminum A-Zooms is the extractor damaging them, at least in other guns. Haven't tried it with the Kahr, but I think you should try to find a local reloader to help. I understand you can punch out the primer and replace it with a cross section of neoprene rubber from a large O-ring glued in place with some of the stuff we use to glue our fingers together, by accident of course.

                      Nothing like a brass case to handle the traffic in and out of the chamber, IMO. Best of luck. Sorry I can't help.
                      It would be so nice if something made sense for a change.

                          mind ya, but sometimes I have been know to fart and blow beer cans off a table at 7 yards. I am deadly at 7 yards and under--from any direction: Just sayin:7:

                          another reason now why I shoot ALONE It is not that people don'tlike me but it is becuase they cannot "stand" me
