My son recently purchased a Kahr PM9. I have not shot it but it sure feels good in the hand. Not too bad on the price of one either.
Does the LCP use a tilting barrel, locked-breech action, as opposed to the blowback action used by many .380's?

Virtually all of today's semiautomatic pistols of 9mm or larger caliber [Hi-Point excepted] use Browning's tilting barrel, locked-breech action.
I sure wouldn't want to fire a 9mm from a blowback action pistol. I wouldn't be strong enough to rack the slide!
However, if the LCP uses a tilting barrel, locked-breech action, then they should be able to engineer it to shoot 9mm. They may need different metallurgy or stronger parts, but it should be doable.
