The hunt for my subcompact 9mm is over! I've been Reading reviews, watching videos, and listening to stories for months, but today I finally got to paw some steel! Well in this case, polymer lol. I walked in, made eye contact, and asked to see 3 guns; Glock 26, Kahr CM9 and a S&W M&P Shield.
It was like the story of Goldilocks. The G26 was too fat, the Kahr was too short (and what's up with that tang on the front of the mag?!), and the Shield was just right. The single stack design felt great. With the extended mag plate, it felt natural. I immediately put it on layaway, and can't wait to bring her home. The best part? I paid normal, retail price.
Now to go find a nice, lefty IWB holster, and some extra mags.
