 Hello, I'm new to this group. I ordered a CW9 and it came in today. I can not find documentation on what type of ammo is acceptable for self defense carry. Is there any place that tells me if I can use +P or +P+ rounds in the CW9?   |

| Welcome Compact 9mm! To answer your question yes you can fire +P or +P+ in your CW9. Here is a good read on your firearm. KAHR ARMS CW9 9mm One thing I picked up on their review was...'Kahr Arms emphatically states that the recoil spring must be replaced after 3,000 rounds. I suggest more frequent change if +P or +P+9mm ammunition is fired.'

| The CW9 is rated for +p+ and shoots it quite well. I haven't been able to find this in writing from Kahr, but I've found several reviews that say it is. Some of these reviews were in the gun magazines and some were on the web. I highly recommend Corbon 9mm Luger +P 115gr DPX for defensive purposes. This ammo is known to achieve excellent expansion at the reduced velocities typical of short barreled pistols.

| Thanks for the feedback. Thanks for the information and the feedback. I also have a Kel-Tec PF9 that is in the shop for service. I will get to the range this week and try our the Kahr with some Winchester White Box and a few Power Balls. |
