    My MK9 "broke" at the range

    Had just fired 20 rounds or so when I pull trigger. Nothing happens. Triigger just goes back as if uncocked. Drop magazine, eject chambered round and locked slide back. Don't see any problem.

    Kahr MK9 - wolf springs question

    Kahr MK9 FTE problem

    New poster here. Thanks for all the info in this forum. My new MK9 (with approx 600 rds through it) randomly stove-pipes spent cartridges with all types of ammo. (Probably, 5-6 per 100 rounds). Following instructions on this site, I removed slide numerous times and cleaned and lubed recoil...
