Looking to get a Kahr P9 or PM9.  Was wondering if anyone might have one or both and a Keltec P3AT.  I have the Keltec and would like to see a size comparison with both Kahr's, especially grip length.  I know the measurements are available but I do better with visual things

Also, pics of the PM9 with the extended mag please.

Thanks in advance.

Hopefully this is close enough. I believe the P3AT and the LCP are pretty much the same size, as are the PM9 and the MK9 but I could be totally wrong.

Thanks, that's just what I was needing.  Now next question.  Is the PM9 less reliable than the P9?

I don't think so. I have both and they each run 100%. Over on kahrtalk, I have read more reports of PMs with issues, but those (more than not) seem to be linked to user error. That small grip seems to cause problems with a lot of shooters.

I have a P45, and it is flawless.  Most complaints I have seen regarding Kahr are from the smaller guns, i.e., P Series = good, smaller models = heartache potential.

Shooter error seems to be most of what I've seen as well.  With my PM40 I can limp wrist it bad and cause a malfunction.  With my PM9, I cannot reproduce this, and cannot otherwise cause it to malfunction.
