rbernie April 5, 2008, 10:27 PM Despite the chambering advantage of the Kahr, the Sig is a far better piece and would be my choice. JDGray April 5, 2008, 10:33 PM I love my P239! It carries better than my G23, and you literally forget you have it in your pants:D Very accurate, 100% reliable, fast follow up shots. No dealings with the Kahrs, I'm sure there great little weapons, but never shot one. cslinger April 5, 2008, 10:35 PM Count me among the folks who have had bad experiences with KAHR so I have to go with the P239. I have a .40 and with the right holster will disappear not to mention that it shoots like a full size. Great gun the P239. UnTainted April 5, 2008, 10:36 PM 239 I own an MK9 and a 239 9mm. The only time the MK9 would be chosen over the 239 is for pocket carry. The 239 carries just fine. I think both guns are accurate, with a noticeable advantage to the 239 (it's a sig, c'mon), so the only thing I use the MK9 for is size, and given that the CW45 is closer to the size of the P239, you're better off served getting a P239. That's my recommendation. Though I own a 239 9mm, I also want one in 357sig; you might look into that too. Mattole April 6, 2008, 02:56 AM Thanks for the input.. I think I'll go for the P239.. devildog66 April 29, 2008, 12:46 AM I have the 239 in 357 Sig and I have carried it on a near daily basis; I sometimes carry a alloy 1911 gov't instead. I believe the holster and carry style will have as big a role as the actual weapon. I use a MS VM II for tucked IWB. I enjoy the 239 but am also interested in the Kahr PM 45 for the weight savings. 1BLINDREF April 29, 2008, 01:47 PM Sounds like you made up your mind, but count me as a Sig vote as well. I carry a P239 SAS 9mm. pogo2 April 29, 2008, 01:49 PM I have a Sig P239 in 9mm and a Kahr MK9, which is slightly smaller than the CW45. Both are excellent guns, but I always go with the Sig if concealment is no problem with what I am wearing, and use the Kahr for situations where concealment is more difficult. I like the reliability and accuracy of the Sig, as well as its greater capacity (8+1) compared to the Kahr (6+1). I feel more confident that I can hit my target at a distance with the Sig. http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o25/pogo2/KahrMK9vsP239_01.jpg
