I am in the market for a CW9. Really neat little affordable pistol. Fits my hand well and I am not a double stack fan (with the exception of the BHP).

I see buds sells them for $403 new, but I cannot find one locally for less than $550?? I am going to a gun show this weekend.

One on gun broker has a CT laser, Trijicon night sights, and 3 mags for 400. This seems too good to be true...

Any thoughts?

I paid $409 almost two years ago for my CW9, NIB. Best 400 bucks I've spent. I've now added the Crimson Trace laser because of aging eyes.
BTW. Eyes are not all that's aging.:cool:

550 is way to high for a cw9. If that gunbroker sale is the real deal you should be all over it.... Why not just order from buds?

I was planning on ordering from buds, but that gunbroker sale caught my eye.

The seller has reliable feedback... It just seemed too good to be true.

Why is there such a leap between Kahr's CW and PM?

What should a NIB Kahr PM9 with night sights be??

More machining of the slide, p series dovetails their sights in, 2 magazines compared to 1, and less MIM parts seem to be the very large differences. The price difference is definitely justified if you understand the difference between metal injected and forged.

Thanks for the reply, no Im not well informed on the difference with forged and injected. A quick explanation if you can?

What would you consider a fair price for a NIB PM9 with trijicon night sights??
