I received a Kahr PM9 for testing and review. To start off, this gun is awesome. It’s reliable under normal conditions, mechanically accurate, and it has a distinct size advantage over its competition.
Anybody that knows me will tell you I am no fan of micro pistols. As an entry-level firearms trainer and gun counter guy, single stack .380 pocket guns and 9mms are the bane of my existence. This is the case because these guns are not utilized for the correct mission. That is another article for another time. However, I will talk about what a micro gun is good for:
About the Kahr CW9. Kahr is known for making thin, single-stack, and highly-concealable handguns. And while the brand is not universally well-known or lovedI had to find out myself when I found a deal online for $270. One thing I also learned quickly is that Kahr’s gun models get really confusing. Kahr Firearms Group has chosen to honor the men and women of law enforcement with a new pistol called the “Thin Blue Line”. Working in conjunction with Kahr’s Law Enforcement Pro Staff, the PM9 model pistol was selected for this custom series. The PM9 represents an excellent choice for duty use as a backup or concealed carry pistol.
Carrying in a NPE or non-permissive environment. Small guns excel at concealment. If there are major consequences for getting caught with a gun a small gun may be the ticket. These places can be gun free zones under any type of circumstance.
A Backup gun. Some people carry two guns; this practice has been around as long as people have been using guns. A smaller gun setup to be accessed with the offhand can prove decisive in a fight under many circumstances.

What really sold me on the pistol was its size. As far as pocket 9mm pistols go, only a select few can ride comfortably in my front pocket for all day carry. Visually the Solo appeared to be just a shade smaller than my old-style bullnose Kahr PM9, and the weight felt about the same.

I need a gun of this type to do two things: The gun needs to be reliable through a realistic round count for a pistol of this size and weight, and I need to be able to group well out to 15 yards with it under normal range conditions. This gun checks both of these boxes through initial evaluation.
Testing was relatively straightforward. I set out to put 500 rounds through the gun in only two sessions to check the gun for reliability. I intended to clean the gun when it malfunctioned. I anticipated this would happen immediately since that is what happens with most pistols in this size and caliber. Surprisingly I didn’t have to.
Through 500 rounds the gun cycled as designed and experienced zero malfunctions. I shot these rounds in a few dynamic drills at a pistol class I was teaching, along with some standard static range stuff. I wanted to run the gun harder and faster than the average user to see if I could get it to choke. Once again, I could not, much to my surprise. I also shot around 50 assorted hollow points for accuracy. Rounds used were Speer gold dot 147gr, Federal HST 147gr, and Winchester Defend. The gun grouped well out to 15 yards with this premium defensive ammo.
Some of you will want a higher round count to test the pistol and some of you will be ok with 500 rounds. I only shot 500 rounds because that is about as much as I will put through the gun in a year if I was using for NPE or backup duty. Is this gun going to outrun my Glock 34? No, but that is not what this gun is for.
Now, let’s talk about the unique characteristics of this gun. First off it is the smallest of its type that actually works. Some guns are smaller or the same size but in 9mm this is the smallest reliable gun I have encountered. This is great since small size it what makes this gun so attractive.
Next is the double action trigger. Many people have a hard time with a double action trigger, I don’t. Do I prefer it? Not really but it does provide a measure of safety and allows the gun to not have a manual safety which is a good thing. If you can’t shoot a double action only trigger well do two things: take some fundamentals classes and actually work on them to get better. The gun was also relatively controllable. Certainly it was snappy, as all small guns are, but nothing truly noteworthy in that department.
The gun also came in a nice hard case with three magazines, two 6 round magazines that sat flush with the frame and a 7 rounder that extended a bit below. Make sure you bring a speed loader for the mags and plan on buying a few extras since the range can get tedious jamming mags by hand every 6 rounds.
This PM9 was also equipped with Trijicon night sights which I consider to be an excellent choice. The gun did shoot a few inches high of point of aim. This occurred while the pistol was rested and offhand. I have seen this in Kahrs in the past so I expected it. Some pistols are setup with different holds based on what the manufacturer wants to do. I’m not sure if this was intentional by Kahr but it wasn’t a big deal.
The Kahr PM9 excels in both the NPE and backup gun roles. I have strong biases and getting me to say this about this type of gun is really something else. Until I reviewed the Kahr PM9 I have only encountered 2 handguns in this class that pass my criteria, now we can make that 3. All in all this was a positive experience. The best part about it was I went in thinking it was going to be pretty negative. The gun fills in the NPE and backup role well and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it for that. Good job Kahr.

Many readers have e-mailed me many times requesting a review of a Kahr pistol. Without further ado or delay, here is your review.
When Concealed Carry Magazine contacted Kahr Arms, they were most agreeable to send us a pistol for testing. After a phone call from the factory rep. (good guy by the way), they promptly sent out an example of their most popular little pistol. Of course, all Kahr Arms pistols are rather small, but this one is just about the smallest you would really want to go for in a 9MM automatic.
The box says KAHR ARMS PM9, Black Diamond Stainless Steel Slide. PM9094A is the official product number. Black Diamond is, from what I can tell, a finish applied over a stainless steel slide. It has a nice, smooth, flat, black finish. Stainless is an excellent material for concealed handguns because of its corrosion resistance. I’m not sure how this finish wears, but when it does at the normal places, the metal underneath remains the resistant and tough stainless. This could be an ideal combination.
This gun is almost in a league of its own when it comes to packaging fire power. The only gun that comes close is the Glock 26. Now, the Glock 26 is a good handgun, but many shooters complain that it is too thick. They often remark that they wish Glock would make a version just like it, but using a thinner, single-stack magazine. So far, Glock has not listened to these requests. Evidently, Kahr Arms has, and the result is the PM9. There is also a .40 caliber version that could be compared to the Glock 27, but we’re just talking about the 9MM today.
Size-wise, the PM9 is smaller than the Glock 26 in every dimension. It’s shorter in length and it’s shorter in height. Thanks to the single-stack configuration, it feels a lot thinner. It’s so small that it makes you think, “Wow, this is really a nine millimeter?” There are only a couple of other guns out there in 9MM that are smaller than the PM9, but none that I would like to shoot more than a few rounds out of. The PM9 pretty much reaches the lower limit of where you should go with size. It’s small enough to be concealed in pocket, but you can still shoot it. The PM9’s advantage is that in spite of being so small, it remains very shootable.
Some shooters dislike handguns so small that they dangle their pinkie fingers. The PM9 is a pinkie dangler to be true. But for those so inclined, Kahr’s spare magazine is one with an extension that allows for a full grip. Keep the short one in for concealment, and then when you need to reload, you can do so with the longer one. Simple, really.Kahr Pm9 Problems
The sights are not the typical, mere suggestions of handgun sights that you get on tiny pistols, but real, usable sights. This example comes with a “dot the i” configuration mostly seen on SIG pistols. The rear sight as a white rectangle in the center, while the front has the standard dot. Lining them up is fast and easy. Some guys don’t like this setup, but being a long-time SIG fan and owner, I actually like this setup better than the common “three dot” setup.
Helping the good sights is a good trigger, not a great trigger, but a good one. Not a heavy pull either-smooth enough to allow good control through the whole pull. Many shooters would be tickled to have a trigger this good on their bigger handgun offerings. The trigger feels like a traditional, double-action-only type pull, like what you would have in most revolvers. But it doesn’t allow for a second strike, meaning you can only pull the trigger once without having to cock the action again. If the pistol was loaded and you fired the gun, the action would cycle and cock the action per design. If the round was a dud, or you were dry firing (firing on an empty chamber), then you would have to pull the slide back by hand.
There is one thorn in the PM9’s side that I found to be distracting. Let me correct that. It wasn’t so much a thorn in the side of the pistol, but the pistol’s thorn in my side when I was carrying it inside the waistband-the slide release lever. Most of the gun sports decent contours around the edges after the muzzle. One of the things I appreciate about a good firearm is the craftsmanship of its creation and the quality of the work. Download lagu indah dewi pertiwi menemukanmu uyeshare. Kahrs generally sport a very high level of both. That is why the slide release is such a disappointment. It sticks out like a sore thumb. (More on that in a minute.) The slide release lever remains as sharp as a bitter teenager’s tongue. The edges are not sharp enough to cause damage, but they are squared enough to be painful if they scrape along your side, going to and from a holster or if your thumb encounters it during recoil when firing. Some guys wouldn’t even think of it, but to me…? I find it irritating. The argument is that the sharper edges allow the shooter a sure grip on the lever for a positive release. Unfortunately, I don’t think that holds any water because other gun makers are putting out guns with levers that can be easily operated without feeling potentially dangerous. This is really my only complaint about the gun’s form factor, and it is a small complaint at that. I’m sure higher-end examples would sport a bevel or two on this part. If not, this would only take but a few seconds of time at a belt sander or a couple of minutes work with a file to sort out properly. I’m not sure if this would void any warranty, but if it did, I don’t see that it would be any trouble to buy a second lever to do the contouring work on.
My bride, who helps me out with camera work, likes to try out each new pistol that I review. She instantly liked the PM9 from the first time she saw it. After she fired it, she announced with no hesitation, “This is my favorite out of all the guns so far.” She’s said that before, but was adamant about this one. (I think I know what to get her for her birthday now.) She mentioned that one reason for liking it so much was the way the little gun shot. It shoots to near point of aim and groups well (about 3 inches) with little effort, thanks to the good sights and trigger. When I fired it, I didn’t exactly dub it my favorite, but I do like it. The recoil was tame and controllable. The .40 caliber version would be a handful, but the 9mm certainly wasn’t.
The only downside was that which I have already pointed out, the slide release. During recoil, the sharp corner would intercept the thumb of my firing hand causing some…I’ll call it “discomfort.” I could have adjusted my grip, but that is the way I shoot. I didn’t have a single malfunction during testing. The gun performed flawlessly.
Overall, I’m impressed with the Kahr, and to be honest, I didn’t expect to be. I had heard from some shooters that these things can jam up a lot when new. This wasn’t the case in the example that I was sent. Maybe it wasn’t so new and had already been worn in. If this is the case with all Kahrs, then it’s a simple matter of buying a couple of bulk packs of ammo when you buy the gun, and spend some time getting familiar with the gun. A 200 round break-in period is short, and you can do that in an hour. Before you carry any handgun for personal defense, you should shoot at least that many just to get to know the gun and to train your hands in its feel and function. While I wouldn’t make it my primary carry piece, it makes for an outstanding back-up gun (or “bug gun”) or for deep concealment.
I showed this piece to a friend of mine who happens to be a Police Chief. He was impressed with size, weight, sights, and trigger. Being a Marine, this man is not one to be easily impressed with any new gun to come around the corner. One comment he made was, “This would make for a hell of a back-up gun.” Yes, yes it would. This is one gun that every serious shooter or professional gunslinger should have in their arsenal. It’s small, light, reliable, and it shoots like a bigger gun. If I was Ian Flemming, I’d have Bond packing one of these babies. It would even look cool with a suppressor. Does the Kahr PM9 get my nod of approval? Absolutely.Kahr Pm9 Price
