Tell me why I need to buy this gun instead of a Walther PPS.
Thanks for you time and input.
Just do a search for PM9 and you will find all the info you need, there have been several post on the PM9 lately.
When I leave the home port:
S&W 642 Airweight, Ruger SP 101, Colt Detective Spec., CZ RAMI, Kahr PM9, Kahr CW40, S&W Model 10-7, Glock 30, 19, and 26, Browning Hi Power, CZ82, Colt Commander, Dan Wesson PM7, Ruger LCP
Because it's a Kahr! That's good enough reason right there.Are you sure you like the magazine release on the PPS? I don't. Grip. Kahr trigger.

The PM9 gives me more options. It is very easy to conceal no matter how you want to carry.

I have a PM9 that has shot out of the box great, accuracy better than I thought it would be.
I looked at the Walther PPS, but spent time on the KahrTalk Forums - Powered by vBulletin website, and Bob Mayne does a good podcast review of the PM9 and P380 on the | Handgun World Show, I am glad I choose the PM9. Sorry I don't have any experience with the PPS.
The PM9 can be carried in the pocket in some pants and shorts and IWB is very comfortable.
I purchased a pm9 about a year ago and love being able to pocket it, especially in this hot weather. That being said, my wife picked out her first pistol and after much looking finally settled on the pps. I like both, but actually shoot the pps better. Recoil is not an issue on either and both have been reliable.
One of the biggest things going for the Kahr PM9 is the weight.
I have its twin. The CW9. the combination of weight and size for concealability holds it near and dear to me. Plus its dependable and accurate to boot !

Lighter smaller almost the same barrel lenth and standard mag release. No back strap to lock up the gun
The pps has a light rail and a more full grip thou

I carry a gun to protect myself & the people I love from the Monsters that roam this earth.
The Kahr PM 9 is the best carry gun I have ever owned. I am 62 and been carrying a gun for over 40 years, it is the most accurate, light, dependable and concealable 9mm out there. I have had mine for about three years now and love everything about it. I have an ankle holster, a pocket holster, a smart carry, a galco MX7, and a fobus paddle for it. I can wear a swim suit and no one would know that I have it. Probably 1000 or so rounds thru it and no complaints.
I have both...for picket, go pm.... For anything else go pps
