Campmeat   did you get the notice on the recall for the XDS .45 and the new 9.? 
G26 is an easy EDC as well. (Glock)

It can slam fire. Call them or go to their website. I just sent mine off yesterday.

I use the KelTec PF9. Good quality, cheap price(under $300.00) nice and slim for conceal carry.

Kahr PM9 is my EDC.
I put a Hogue grip on it and with the extended magazine, feels great.
You're welcome to shoot it.

I really like the Sig 938.

The Kahr p9/CW9 are good. I have found the K9 (all steel, little heavier) fits better and I shoot it better. The sp101 in .357 can definitely be used in an urban environment- it just depends on ammo relection.

The Kahr CW9 seems very well reviewed and can be picked up for under 400. Anyone have one of those?

My son has a CW9, its been reliable, decent to shoot and carries well.  Myself who packs either a 1911 of some flavor or a S&W 3913, depending on season etc, even likes it.

Whatta ya mean I can't have one of each?

Sig P938.   9mm, 1911 style controls, good night sights, and barely bigger than an LCP.  Skip the laser if you are trying to keep it affordable.

Are you set on a 9?  A 1911 in .45 ACP is pretty slim.  For a 9, Kahr makes some really compact stuff.

I'm not married to the 9, but I already have one and I like to consolidate calibers. Plus, 9mm is a good balance of power vs. overpenetration for where I will be carrying, which is in the city. I also have a sp101 in .357 that I won't carry down there for that reason.

I'd love a 1911, but they are more money than I wanted to spend on this one. The Kahr CW9 seems very well reviewed and can be picked up for under 400. Anyone have one of those?

I have a Kahr CW40, and three friends and BIL with either Kahr 9 or .40.   We love them. Carries well, slim, and can get three fingers on the grip, which is also important to me. The only drawback to me is the long trigger pull, but it is smooth the whole way through.   As far as carry, i use either an IWB holster for a 1911 by the maker Gote, or a Kydex holster from Gunfighters Inc.   the Gote holster was only $20 but is surprisingly comfortable and conceals deep in my waistband. The Gunfighters inc has exceptional retention. I could do cartwheels and the Kahr stays put. (May have to try that just to verify). Anyway, back on track. I think you would be hard pressed to find a better "bang" for your buck with a Kahr, whether it's a 9 or 40.


Edit to add:  cartwheel test completed. Passed.  But not sure I will do anymore of those tests.  A few too many years have passed since doing one of those. Still capable but deffinitly not in my prime cartwheeling condition any more. Best to keep both feet firmly planted!
