I really need another single stack 9mm as small as the PM9 to come out. Considering switching to a Shield at this point though it might be a tad too big for pocket carry.
It is a total love/hate relationship with my PM9. Granted, it was a tad dirty as I regrettably did not clean it after last range trip, but the damn thing was jamming/failing to feed on the 4th or 5th round at the range this weekend. It's just not a reliable gun. Hard to put a lot of trust in it given its many quirks.
Has it always been like this and with all types of ammo? How many rounds have you put through it?
I think kahr recommends replacing the recoil spring (assembly) every 1200-1500 rounds. There is also an initial "break-in" of 500 rounds for any rough spots to smooth out. Also consider your magazines and if it is doing it to all magazines or one/two in particular.
I also don't like doing full capacity + 1 on the kahrs. I do a full mag, chamber and leave the magazine 1 short of capacity.
