Anyone have experience with these two pistols? I'm looking at one of these to take role of EDC currently filled by s&w 642. Recoil would not likely be an issue with either one though suspect that the mk9 would have the advantage. Have held pm9 at dealer and also owned a p9 in past that was traded in for higher capacity m&p9 so I'm familiar with function of the 9mm "p" Kahr. I haven't been able to find an mk9 at dealer or range(for rent) to compare yet. Reason I have not picked up pm9 already is that I am concerned about being able to use it in extensive practice sessions and would think the mk9 the more durable of the two. I practice with my carry rig frequently and prefered carry will be strongside iwb holster with pocket carry being a rare need.
Any advice or information on the comparison?
