I'll have to read up on the trigger but it looks like the perfect size. And Buds has one for $316. May have a winner.


If the Shield had been out when I bought my CM9 I probably would've gotten one.

But honestly, the damn thing just never stops working. The only malfunction I had was the slide not locking after the very first magazine which isn't necessarily unexpected with a fresh stiff spring. The damn thing runs like a top. I've shot it quite a bit more since this video but here's an update vid I did a while back.

LC9s all the way if you like the sensation of doing one-arm pull-ups when pulling the trigger.

You've obviously have never shot an LC9s. It has one of the best triggers out there.

Ended up going with the Kahr over both these two mostly for size purposes. Looking forward to some range time.

Good choice and I'm sure you'll like how it shoots. It's actually quite soft shooting for how tiny it is.

I'd advise some Talon Grips if you're not a fan of the aggressive grip texture from the factory. That's what I did.

I traded my wife's LC9 for an LC9s, great trigger on the new gun.

I agree with others that it may have the best stock trigger in its class.

Shoot them and choose the one that you shoot best or is most comfortable.

My LC9 has become polished some and has some minor surface rust from time to time. Its a tool and not a "play purty" for me. YMMV
