Range Report: Kahr PM9

[U.S. Patriot]

I took my PM9 to the range today to break it in. I put 232 rounds down range with 0 malfunctions. Compared to my Kel-Tec PF9.
1. The muzzle flip is very similar, but the felt recoil was much softer compared to the PF9.
2. The PM9 is more accurate.
3. Overall, the PM9 is a much better pistol.
One thing I also like about the PM9 is that you can get 7 round mags. Plus, the Pearce pinkie extensions are much better then the Kel-Tec brand extensions for the PF9.
I ran 100 rounds of Federal Champion 115 grain FMJ
100 rounds of my 115 grain FMJ reloads
7 rounds of Black Hills 124 grain JHP
25 rounds of Hornady Critical Defense 115 grain JHP
The Hornady performed very well and was accurate. I have another box set aside for carry. I'm very happy with the pistol. If you are in the market for a pocket pistol, I highly recommend a Kahr.​

Thanks for a great range report confirming why a PM9 is my almost constant companion. Fantastic little pistol that is amazingly accurate and designed to fire +p rounds!

+1, I never should have sold my PM9. I just bought a CM9 (to replace it for $250 less) and like it ALMOST as much, and like my MK40 even more.

I actually went in thinking I'd buy a Ruger LC9. But for a little more cash, I found the build quality of the Kahr to be worth it.

Mine was never fired but still considered used.

Nicely done range report.
Thanks for sharing. It was nice to see some of the specifics in what you used as well as the objective and subjective observations.
Thank you.

Stay safe
