Your wisdom in preparation is impressive. Two thumbs up!
I posted this in General, because I was excited about an off roster gun I bought tonight from a LEO who took real good care of it since it was new a year ago. He got it all broken in for me, and I can't wait to shoot it tomorrow.
Just under the wire for September.
And for anyone who is interested, Massachusetts has approved a Massachusetts version of the PM9, which will have a locking safety, a loaded chamber indicator and a hidden second serial number. It won't be exactly like this PM9 I got tonight, but it should be a decent gun. Can't tell you what the trigger will be like, but this one I bought has a nice long smooth clean trigger break.
So here's a quick pic of what I got.
Did I mention that this gun is even smaller than my pocket J frames? Nice!

Very nice. I really like my PM9.
On the MA version, it'll be very interesting to see what happens with it. When the first M&P45 was released in MA, it had a 6lb trigger and thumb safety but then the AG got their panties bunched about it.
If Kahr puts a 10lb trigger on the PM9, that's going to be horrible on such a small gun.
It's on the EOPS roster but NFG for the AG's BS.

No double action handgun is supposed to be carried with the safety on. On double action/single action handguns, the safety is meant to be used as a decocker. On double action only semi autos such as Kahrs, the mere existance of the safety is a concession to idiotic laws and regulations such as those of Massachusetts.
The Kahr isn't really double action. It's a striker fired gun and the striker is preloaded just like a Glock. There are other striker fired guns (not sold in MA or CA) that have a safety. The XD and M&P are both available with thumb safeties.
