Man this sure carries nice!
Kahr PM45. Shoots very well too. Just have to get used to the LOOOOONNG reset on the trigger. I'm used to Glock and 1911 triggers with a very short reset. This will take some getting used to. Just disappears in my MTAC. 150 rounds through it so far. Had 2 stove pipes, but I know it was from limp wristing.

Re: Man this sure carries nice!
Very nice. I love my P40, no complaints. Put at least 200+ through it before depending on it, ideally with no failures.
I made a spiffy Kydex mag carrier that goes in the pocket with a clip on it like a knife to keep it in place. Easy to deploy too. Looks like a knife if anything.
Though I am having second thoughts if I should have got a P45.

Congrats. I have the PM40 and have been very happy with it. I carry it in a Don Hume IWP holster. The ONLY complaint I have about the design is during reassembly. You REALLY have to be careful about getting that sping arm over the slide lock pin. Otherwise it locks open every time.
Re: Man this sure carries nice!
I carry tha' CW40 ... 24/7.
Also been thinking about a .45
.... of course, it'll have to be a CW !
My other .45 is a XD ... just alittle large for summer wear.
Congrats ... on your choice !

Re: Man this sure carries nice!
I really like my PM9 because how easy it conceals. I agree re-assembly can be challenging at times.

Nice gun
I carry the PM40, its a mean one to master. Not much of a grip for my large hands and kicks like a mule. It took a few weeks to finally feel as comfortable with it as I do with my XD45.
I thought my .40 kicked, I bet that .45 does for sure.

Re: Man this sure carries nice!
The recoil is surprisingly mild. I have always thought that the 40 had more felt recoil than the 45.TheBrit wrote:Nice gun![]()

Re: Man this sure carries nice!
That is the difference in a high pressure round (40 ca at max ~32,600psi) vs a lower pressure round like the .45 (21,000 psi max.) The recoil on the 45 will usually be much more manageable.Mike from Texas wrote:The recoil is surprisingly mild.
