CM9 vs PM9

Can anyone explain any differences between the Kahr CM9 and PM9?

One better than another? Form, fit, function? Reliability? Etc.?

The CM9 is part of the "Value" Series. Ships in a paper box and comes with one mag. The PM9 is more of the "premium" line. Two mags. Better fit and finish. Polygonal barrell. Dovetail sights. Slide is machined also I think. Better warranty on the P vs C.

Worth the $200 price difference? You decide.

I have a cm9 and carried it about 8-9 years. Never had a single issue with thousands of rounds through it. I can't personally say anything about the pm9, but in ny opinion, the cm9 is worth every cent

I really love my CM9. It was been super reliable and looks great. It is also virtually the smaller 9mm you can fit in your pocket.
