Glock 43 / Kahr PM9 / Kimber Micro 9 - 9mm Single Stack
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лют 2017
- Here are some great single stack 9mm concealed carry options. When talking about the platforms... Was meaning three different trigger actions. Yes, both the Glock and Kahr are Striker Fired handguns.. Love all three of these. For a first time concealed carrier, definitely give them a look. Hope this helps. God bless!

I have numerous compact handguns. That kimber is the best shooting by far. It's dead on, I'm impressed. But the other options are great too.
I didn't know Raymonds brother did gun reviews.
William lmfao
Love my Kimber micro 9 TFX Pro Stainless. M☆Carbo trigger kit. 50% trigger pull reduction. Perfect carry for the 1911 guys. Cant beat it. Great sights, accuracy, trigger, safety. Firm grip and shell eat any ammo you can feed it.
All great choices but the Kimber really stands out.
I think it’s the grips and the two tone stainless, looks really nice for the price.
I just love to look at that baby Kimber!!! Have a great day!!!
We recently bought the Kimber Micro 9 and it is probably the best Compact carrying gun for my wife. She said in her purse it’s perfect and on her side it’s perfect.
Excellent purchase!!! However they are not $650 in Pittsburgh. I wish they were.
great review thanks I've
owned the G43 4 times and the shield 3 times now, great guns only I just keep trading them off, but my PM 9 is a keeper for sure so light and comfortable to concealed carry in many areas, plus it's very accurate going on about 1000 flawless rnds and counting.
Yup, I feel the same way bud. Been there.. and yes, the PM9 will be around for a while....it's just that much smaller and lighter, yet shoots smoother. Thanks for sharing!
Interesting review of these guns, I've shot them all, I'm rollin' with the Glock 43 or 26.Simple.Reliable.
Great video! I know a lot of folks have discovered that these minis may not be combat handguns but they're the ones you'll have on you when the most unexpected happens. I own two of these and have tried the third - all good options, and it will depend, as always, on the shooter. First, the Glock 43, the one I do not own - it's a Glock and if you're accustomed to the Glock trigger this is the one for you. I do not use, nor do I recommend, pocket carry, but I know a lot of people do, and of these three the Glock seemed just a little smoother in the pocket, with fewer snags. I agree that the extended mag is useless on the Glock - if you want extra rounds, carry a 19. It isn't a subcompact but it is a very serious firearm for personal defense. The Kahr - I have the predecessor, the P9 Covert, which I carried for years. Had a smith touch up the trigger and it's the smoothest of the three albeit the heaviest. If you are a double-action revolver shooter, this one is pure heaven. It was my go-to "social" gun until the Kimber Micro 9 came along last summer. I'm an old 1911 shooter and so operating the safety from the drawstroke on the Kimber is second nature, but it does require training no matter who you are. You won't be hitting this one with the ball of the thumb, the gun's too tiny, it hits aft of the knuckle and for shooters with big hands, into the webbing. No big deal, it's just a little different, that's all. Of the three this is the only one I'd recommend the extended mag for (if you can find one). Maybe it's the subtle weight distribution, but with that full loaded it feels like a lot bigger gun. All three of these will yield reliable A-zones at 25 meters, which is about all you can ask of a subcompact anyway. All three will feed 124-gr self defense loads flawlessly. I didn't get a chance to test the Glock with 147-gr but the other two eat them up just fine. All great guns.
Excellent points bud! Appreciate the time it took to share. You seem to be very knowledgeable and have a lot of experience. I agree with the facts about the Kimber. The more I shoot it, the more I love it! Take care brother. Please stop by and share more often.
I think that was a better choice on your decision to make the trigger change. Course, I do wonder aside from the aesthetic draw, why dress up some of those smaller guns if the purpose is concealment? Points taken on the mag extensions, it's what you said about that specifically, which got me curious about the motivation make some of those other more obvious adjustments.
Great video! And thanks for the shout out!
I don't consider the Kahr trigger pull as heavy. Do DAO triggers have a reset?
Great video. That micro 9 is gorgeous. Thinking about picking one up. FYI - Your going to love the Hyve trigger. Zero take up straight to the wall. Feels amazing and is night and day from the factory trigger. I got the taran extension and your so right. It's only adds like a few mm. Also have the hyve as well. I put magguts in each and can get 8 now, but it's too tight in the taran. The hyve works better. They both function fine, but pushing in magazine has major resistance. Bends the ejector so don't run the taran with 8 in my rig. Thanks for sharing!!
Fort Lauderdale! What's up neighbor!.... And ya, it's a pretty sweet piece. Thanks for tuning in brotha!
Great video.. if I may ask were did you purchase those grips on the kimber micro9?.
All 3 are nice brother!!!!
I like that "WE THE PEOPLE" holster you got for the 43. Thats what I have works pretty good!
Great low cost option.
Baseline, virtually all of my family and friends are more accurate by default with the Kimber Micro 9 and Sig P928 style micro 1911's over other pocket pistols and even a Ruger SR9c, witch is striker fired and a decent gun, also much bigger and has a longer sight radius. It may take longer to be comfortable but at 10-15 yards the they are nail drivers. I mostly think its the beautiful triggers and the sights as well as ergonomics. Both are some of the best in the hand I have ever felt, the Glock in your vid is also decent as well. I don't believe I have had the Kahr in hand but I have medium small hands so I think its another reason I like the slim presentation of the Kimber and Sig, oh, and did I mention they are extremely good looking..lol
I like how your band-aid is color-coordinated with the grips on your Kimber.
Haha....didn’t even notice! Nice! 👍
I EDC the kimber micro 9 everyday. I love the gun shoots smooth and extremely accurate. And I holster it in the alian gear iwb shape shift holster. They are a great combo and recommend both
I have e not had any issues with mine and I'm right around 500 rounds. I recomend not shooting steel casing rounds. Only brass. I have heard it likes to jam up. But I myself only use brass casing.. the gun itself is personal preference. I love mine and my stepfather loves his. I purchesed mine off of gunbuyer.com and was alot cheaper then any stores around me. I have the night fall. With night sights and the hogue grips and extended pinky grip. My stepdad has the two tone
Hey no problem. Believe me I was like you asking about that gun. But on my end my dad already had the micro so I got to shoot it quit a bit. But I dont regret my decision.
Nice Choices Brother! Carry On!
nice Kimberly what type of grips?
Thanks for the video. Really interested in that micro 9. I currently carry a sig p938 and love it. That micro 9 seems like it would compare nicely to it.
It does. I also have the p938.. which after grabbing the Kimber sits in safe.... great guns.
Spec-Op 4 might make for a good comparison video...
Spec-Op 4
Would definitely like a comparison video of the micro 9 and the P938 if you can. Thanks!
Yea, I found the Kimber for $528.00, good price for it. That is the all stainless model.
I don't own a kahr yet. My cc are p938, cz rami and down to.380 the remington rm380 and the walther ppk/s. I do prefer da/sa.
If you ever get achance to shoot the Springfield " 911 " 380ACP let me know how you like it.
the CM9 is both budget friendly and in those small sub-gun category.
Nice looking trio
sold the wife's Shield today and bought her a green Glock 43, not for me just to thin but she's loving it, also ordered TTI plus 2 extensions and Trijicon HD'S with the Dueck Defense rear single dot rear sight it's like a Battlehook but not as ugly
I forgot I also ordered fde Talon Grips and a Vedder holster for her,our first 9 in a while what ammo do you suggest, Gold dot, Corbon, Double Tap? that's what I have for my 40's,357Sig's,and 380
I use law enforcement stuff Winchester Ranger Ts and Federal HST. But Gold Dot and many others are very quality brands as well. I shoot 147g... I'd generally stay away from 115g as a carry load but that's just me.
you should've had the shield on their, the king of all single stack concealed carry
Love my Shield....honestly could have put quite a few more.. but was saying the g43 represented most of the other polymer single stacks Shield, xds, pps, etc..) This was about trigger differences mainly. Thanks for tuning in brotha!
I’ve never handled any Kahr but it’s action is too much like the S&W M&P Bodyguard 380 I just got rid of for me to want any part of it. The Glock 43 is a good gun, I have fired one belonging to a friend several times. The trigger never struck me as being all that heavy. About the same as my 2 Glocks... a 17 & a 26... both have great triggers which are supposed to be 5.5 pounds but feel more like between 4 to 4 and a half to me. And yes I do use G19 mags with X-Grips spacers in the 26. Makes for a great handling piece in my opinion. But my absolute favorite carry piece is my Kimber Micro 9 “Crimson”. Mine came with a 7 round magazine and I have purchased 3 more for it. I have to place the Micro 9 among my top five most accurate semiautomatics with the other 4 being full sized 1911s & Berettas. Thanks for the video... while I don’t agree with all of your conclusions I found them well thought out and your reasoning is sound even if I didn’t agree with all of it. Be well! :)
Tom Wunder appreciate you sharing brother. Yes, just recently picked up another micro 9 tan with CT grip. Excellent gun. My favorite out of the 3....(and I’m a Glock guy). The action on the Kahr is definitely a long deliberate pull (which in some cases will fit the inexperienced concealed carrier better, lil safer to carry knowing that you REALLY need to pull that trigger... won’t be pulled by accident (in most cases). Take care and thanks for tuning in 👍
nice video as always.
Thanks buddy!
Those are three excellent pistols. If you get the chance, do try out a Ruger LC9s Pro.
Isaac Arnold Will do. Had the regular LC9. Nice gun.
I want a used black diamond PM9 in good condition but it's not easy.
Kahr is also striker fired.
my fiance has tried them all and she prefers the m&p shield, compact. we added night sights and a more aggressive grip for her smaller hands. works great for her
The Glock 43 was representing the Shield and xds as well. Have all of them and agree the Shield is a great choice! Think both the xds and Shield are better guns out of the box. Thanks for sharing brotha!
love the hard work you put out man, keep it up. we look forward to more of your videos and ranting
Luke W Lol....."hard work" From the time I sit down at the table to make a vid, takes about 10-15min from start to finish.. Including setup and "editing" (which I really don't do much). Wish I had the time to do more. But, thanks brotha! Appreciate that.
I used to live near an air base lol. Sometimes your trying to have a conversation the a F22 Flys by haha
I love my kimber micro 9
Are those blue grips on the Micro 9 from Kimber? I looked at their webpage and none of the current Micro 9 pistols are offered with those grips, and they don't appear on the Kimber accessories page either.
Hey bud, grabbed them off ebay if I remember correctly.
if you're into tiny revolvers, get an NAA Pug.
if you're into 380s, get a Kahr P380.
If you're into tiny 9mm's, look at the Micro 9 or the P365
I like the versatility of the baby Glocks (26/27). I mean, how cool is it that you can basically have 3 guns in one by just inserting a bigger magazine? idk, my ¢2
Keith Gee Love my Glock 26s, but this vid is on single stacks. Thanks for tuning in.
awesome comparison! Do you get any slide bite with the Kimber?
Appreciate that bud! And no slide bite for me.
just a question wouldn't sig p290 RS fit in this category, and be a better example of a mirco double action 9mm than the Kahr?
I've actually owned that before and yes, that would be a great example. Unfortunately, don't own it now. Thanks for sharing bud.
Just a thought. The Kahr trigger, everyone complains about the long Kahr trigger compared to all the other better shorter triggers. K. I can't remember the last reviewer I've watched ever mention modifying a Kahr trigger....or even wanting to....lol! But then, they all talk about modifying the shorter triggers of all the other brands of guns to"make them better"....hahaha! I guess that tells us all we need to know about a Kahr trigger. I think they are the perfect trigger for a small carry gun. Good job Justin Moon.
TheLaw OnGuns Very well said brother! Appreciate you tuning in✊
Are (were) those the Kimber night sights? They are pretty guns.
Diana Mc unfortunately when I bought this it had just come out and they didn’t have Night Sights ...only started putting Night Sights on from factory a while after I bought it...go figure. Thanks for tuning in brother ✊
If you get a jam you will need the the space on the PM9 to pull the mag out.
Very true. Good point bud! Thanks for tuning in!
Can you do a video on the Crkt minimalist
Defied Eclipse Sure, have a few..
I keep eyeing that Kimber of yours. Just beautiful. Flawless runner?
I only place a gun as "flawless" after way more rounds than this has been through. But yes, so far 160ish without issue. Using 124 and 147g. Honestly, I'm a polymer age dude. But this lil thing is f'ing sweet....main reasoning being that although it looks like an expensive safe queen, it's frigging a Glock $500-$550.. but if I had to do it again I would have waited for the Raptor version or even the new FDE version they JUST came out with! Get that! And I'll be the one who's jealous..lmao. Always new items out there to grab! If only $$$ wasn't a factor. Lol. Take care bud.
Spec-Op 4 ain't that the truth. Thanks for the info! Cheers
Did you get the invite?
Nice vid
Thanks bud.
Isn't the kahr also striker? And isn't the glock technically dao?
Cod y19 Glock is actually considered a single action trigger, obviously very different action than the 1911..
I pick up my PM9 used for $320.00 with XS sights on it
Nice grab bud!
Who is your bracelet made by. Enjoy the video.
Richard Roberts The Friendly Swede. Can find on Amazon brotha!
Nice video, stop hating on "Safeties" what they do to you.
Roc Mode lol....OK, just read it again. No hate, just prefer none.. Thanks for tuning in.
I would take the Kahr over any micro 1911 design 1000 times over.
You prob took trump and will lose most of what you could've had so billionaires could get trillions in tax cuts - you must be a special kind of stupid
@@akhan3682 What a dumb ass response.
I want a kimber but so many ppl say it's a bad brand idk might take the risk
Sig 938 same style better pistol . Go get ur hands one expect to leave with one
lol, when you have kids, you wear your kids bandaids, we have those same Skylanders bandaids
Hahaha! Yup!
“Within 10 ft”....? No, I easily qualified with the Micro 9
That’s awesome man! Wish I could, my hand size is just to large and doesn’t accommodate these micro pistols...although with enough training, I’m sure I could do better. Take care bud.

I like the Glock better. WHY? I like plastic junk. I also like to be inaccurate so I always use striker fired over hammer guns.
Ok. Thanks for tuning in bud. 👍🏼
