Talon grips vs no Talon grips.
Just found this thread and thought I would throw in my two cents
ive had a cm9 for 3 years. No malfunctions in ~500 rds. I would think about trading up to a 43 also but I will keep the cm9 because it is slightly smaller than the 43 and I occasionally pocket carry. If you never plan to picket carry I'd say go 43. If you might pocket carry keep the cm9 with confidence. It's a great gun with a good double action trigger.
I hadn't heard of this problem. I have heard of feeding problems with some 7 round magazines, which Kahr will exchange, no questions asked. Do you own a Kahr?Some of the earlier CM9s had a problem with the bottom of the feed ramp impacting the front legs of the magazine follower, which occasionally caused the legs to break off. The followers are made of polymer. I would guess that this was fixed in later production models. The factory had to make a modification to the bottom of the feed ramp. YMMV
No personal experience here with 7 or 8 round magazines (just 6 round), but it looks like there haven't been any problems with 6 round or 8 round magazines. It goes without saying that every new magazine should be tested. There is always the possibility that the bugs have been worked out of the 7 rounders. Internet gossip seems like it is never stopped, even after the problems have been rectified.What about 8 rounders?
I like mine for pocket carry!
I think they are a huge improvement. Being one of the smallest 9mm handguns out there, they really don't have too much recoil. But I found it to be a little rough on the hands when shooting more than a few mags. With the Talon grips there is none of that, and I feel like I have a much better grip on the little pistol. They only cost $17.95 last time I checked. They come in a little envelope. I bought the second set before the second pistol arrived. I carry one every day for the last 2-3 years, and I have not needed to replace them yet.How how do you like the talon grips on the cm? Is it a considerable improvement in your opinion?
What pocket holster are you using?
This looks like a good deal: Kahr Arms Handguns products for saleGot a chance to shoot the CM9 over the weekend, 200 rounds of various 9mm with no issues. I was able to slingshot it with no issues either, overall i was really pleased with the gun and how it performed and it will now be my new pocket gun! I installed the talon rubberized grips and picked up a sticky holster for pocket carry, it's extremely comfortable and it doesn't print too much. Now i just need to pickup a magazine or two, loading 200 rounds into one six round mag was not fun lol. Anyone know where to get mags for a decent price? Thanks for all the help guys, greatly appreciated.
