Experience with a KAHR CM9

Any one have one?  How do you like it?  Can you compare it with other subcompacts?

I have a Kahr P40 which is in 40S&W and is slightly larger than the CM series.  Mine has been reliable and have had no trouble shooting it.  It has a long, but smooth, trigger press which I guess is for safety.  The 40S&W does have a sharp recoil for the small sized gun, but it's manageable and you wouldn't be shooting a compact gun like that too often.  I also have a Glock 43 which is slightly larger and has a 2 stage trigger.  I prefer the Glock due to I've been shooting Glock's all my life.

Personally, I wouldn't want to get a gun any smaller than the P series as it would get difficult to grip and control the gun, and reduce your effective range even more.

My P40's still for sale with a COMPTAC holster if you're interested.

Thanks for the insight.  Looking for a subcompact 9mm though.  I did check the G43 out.  Although I like the trigger, on the one I looked at, I just can't warm up to the grip angle on Glocks.  I'd have to retrain around it.  I do have full size and compact pistols that fit that distance role already.  Wanted a nice small pistol that is light and easy to carry for 0 to 15 yard max effective. I am already set up for 9mm and getting into another caliber isn't in my goals at this time.  Appreciate the offer though, thank you.

I wouldn't mind trying the trigger out, as Kahr's are supposed to all have the same trigger,  if you wouldn't mind showing it to me.  You going to Puuloa today? (Sunday)   I'd appreciate it.
