Sig lists it's overall length at 5.5" and Kahr lists the PM9 at 5.3" So, at least according to the manufacturers, the Kahr is shorter. Also, the Kahr PM9 accepts all Kahr 8 rd 9mm magazines.Zoomie wrote:Both guns have a width of 0.9in, sig tells you that the slide release protudes another 0.2in, but I can't find that data for the PM9 (only gives slide width). The sig is also shorter, and has the option for a bigger magazine (6-8) verses the kahr (6-7). Also, I'd probably prefer a heavier pistol of that size chambered in 9mm.G26ster wrote:Looking at the specs, it's longer, wider, and significantly heavier than the Kahr PM9.

I'd have to shoot both to say which I liked better (the Kahr is shorter with a longer (0.1in) barrel) but I wouldn't write off the 290.

Looking at the specs, it's longer, wider, and significantly heavier than the Kahr PM9. I guess Sig fans will love it though.
