DA 9mm compact for CCW

[user01394]

I am considering a S&W shield but also want to consider a DA gun, any suggestions on a CA legal one that can be had relatively cheaply?

Not relatively cheap but H&K p2000sk

Second the Kahr CW9. Also, let’s not forget the G26 as a fairly cheap option.

I would recommend a kahr cw9 also. I use to have a cw 45 and I currently have a cm9. Both are very good carry guns. Both are reliable with a very smooth but long trigger pull.

CW9 by Kahr

Ruger LC9 used, if safety desired. Though off roster, might be found for less than the CW9, as once very common. The long trigger pull and many safety features seem to keep price low for an off roster pistol.

KAHR P9 has been a flawless choice

Another vote for the PCR or P-01. In addition to being great guns they are also priced well. I prefer the PCR unless you need a rail.

Another vote for the PCR

Alloy framed but still soft recoiling and accurate.

Hello, what about some smaller versions? SCCY, Diamondback? I know they are off roster-You never see these in the PPT for sale section! Thanks!

Kahr PM9! It makes a great pocket gun, recoil is reasonable and the trigger is long but smooth. It is on roster. I would tell you to get the CM9 since they cost around $300 but it is off roster. The $300ish CW9 is on roster and is a good gun too. The CW9 is Shield sized.

No.

Get a Glock 26 g3 for best results. The Kahrs are decent and a PM9 beats most 9mm guns for pocket carry. I avoid 380 if a all possible.
