About the Gun

The smallest model in Kahr's Value Series, the CM Series takes its features from Kahr's CW series (3.6 inch barrel in 9mm, .40 SW and .45 ACP) and incorporates them into a smaller 3 inch barrel package (3.24 inch for the CM45). The CM9 has the same external dimensions as the PM9 which make it ideal for concealed carry. Kahr pistols are striker-fired locked-breech designs, relying on a modification of the Browning dropping-barrel system with a lug above the chamber locking the barrel into the roof of the slide.

About the Cartridge

This cartridge was introduced along with the Luger semi-automatic pistol. The pistol and cartridge was first adopted by the German Navy in 1904 and then by the German Army in 1908. This cartridge has since been adopted by the military of practically every non-Communist power. It has become the most popular and widely-used handgun cartridge in the world. Performance wise, the 9 mm cartridge has somewhat more power than the .38 Special but falls well short of the .357 Magnum.

Excellent, Micro 9mm
By Pocketgunner on 22 Nov 2019
Excellent, high quality build throughout the gun. Extremely mild shooter. Smooth Striker Fired DAO is one of the best. Ideal for a small EDC firearm. Shoots softer than other larger guns in the same class. Nice sights. Hard to find a better handling gun especially in this size.
