Nick- The CM9 and CW9 are nearly identical. CM9 is the compact 6rd version. The CW9 has a longer grip to hold 7rds. I've had both. The CM9 is easier for pocket carry, but only a 2-finger grip which bothers some people. The CW9 has a three finger grip which some prefer. Kahrs have a unique trigger system. If you like one, you'll like both.
These are popular carry guns because of their relatively low price and easy concealment. It won't be hard to find one to test fire- either renting at a range or via an INGO member. One additional item to be aware of. Kahrs have tight springs as part of their design. Some people have a hard time racking the slide. If your wife has that problem, it is a simple matter of technique to handle it.
Good tips. I appreciate it.Don't give up on trying before buying. If you can't find one to rent, it is easy to put out a request on INGO for a test drive. You can usually find someone to help you for the cost of ammo and you'll meet an INGOer in the process. Good luck in your hunt.
Glad I ran into those thread. My wife and I visited Point Blank in Carmel last night and had a nice conversation with Joe, who let her handle and dry fire all sorts of different pistols. She liked the Sig 9mm (can't remember the number) the best, but it's a $700 gun. She theneeds got the CW9 and like it just about as well. Joe then tells us that there's the CM9 and it's a bit smaller. I hope I can find one for her to shoot before buying.
It's nice to see so many positive reviews.
I will get to see how I like the CM9 since I purchased one yesterday.
Where from and how much? I think I'm seeing them run in the $350 range?
You stole that one. I have the same set up and I love it. The Crimson Trace laser makes shooting in low light conditions a breeze.I actually bought it from a guy and I feel that I got an awesome deal. I got the gun, 2 mags, Crimson Trace laser and IWB holster for $325. It included all boxes and paperwork. The seller said it has about 300 rounds through it.
My initial thought was to sell the Crimson Trace but I have to say it is nice and my wife likes it. This will be her new carry gun.
there are a lot of people that hold these in high reguard. kind of a long break in from what ive heard
They are super reliable and have superb DAO triggers. The biggest con is Kahrs have a notoriously stiff slide. It would not make a good gun for women or first time CCW unless the person has strength to properly put the gun into battery.
