I've been reading about these two Kahr offerings compared to the LC9 and PF9. Comparing the stats on the corporate websites they look very similar (especially the CW9 and LC9). But I've also read Kahr fudges a bit on their measurements and the real-world measurements are actually larger than posted.

Can anyone give me real-world measurements of these two Kahr guns - OAL, height (with mag), and width?

I'm going to try to get to an LGS that has them all in stock to look & handle them in person but I would like to see the numbers first.

Thanks,

CW9

slide length: 5.9 in. front of slide to end/bottom of grip: 6.3 in.
slide width: .9 in. / with slide stop 1.1 in
height w/mag: 4.9 in. (from top of sights to bottom of magazine)

I looked at their site and their measurements are pretty much right on so I'd go with whatever they put up for the CM9.
No CM9 here (yet) but I'm looking at it real hard. I like the size of my Cw9 so much but when I held the PM9, I liked that also. I don't plan on selling the CW9 for funds to get the CM9 as the CW9 has been 1000 rds perfect so far.
I trust my life with it. I'd say handling them in person will definitely be needed in this case as both feel really good. CM9 gets the nod if you plan to pocket carry. If I had to pick without having either, I'd probably still go CW9
due to the that extra bullet and the perfect fit in my hands. Either one will be hidden if you plan to carry it, even for thin guys, so it seems it comes down to which one feels best in your hands.
