I expect my firearms to function 100% when I plop down my hard earned money. I suppose someone could try to talk me out of that expectation. Maybe they could etch the "break in" requirement on the side of the slide assembly.
Dang it guys, It's a pistol, not an automobile engine. I...
It is an interesting idea that machined parts have to be rubbed together to make them fit. The three machine shop bosses I had in high school would have a fit. It's like telling them to use sandpaper instead of a tool to achieve a good finish on parts.
There is a manufacturer out there that...
tolerances
Guys & Gals,
The term tolerance is thrown around to describe fit.
If you have a 1.000" +/- .001" peg and a 1.002" +/-.001" hole then you have a fit of .000" - .004" and a tolerance of +/-.001" for the parts.

I have a Kahr P9. I had failure to battery problems right out of the box. The folks at Kahr, though very nice people, were of no use solving my problem. I finally figured it out as excessive extractor tension. The cartridge was not sliding easily under the extractor which caused excessive...
Hi Folks,
I recently aquired a new CZ75P-01. I shot over 1000 rounds thru it with no problem. This pistol is well made and has no issues at all. I didn't have to "break it in" to make it function.
Now I found this forum and there appears to be nothing but satisfied owners of CZ...
"break in"
I expect my firearms to work when I plop down my hard earned cash. I understand that any weapon should be shot until it is proved trustworthy. I cannot accept the idea that a firearm has to be shot until it even functions.
It appears that a certain manufacturer is promoting...
Kahr Crap
I finally got my P9 working today.
First, the idea that a firearm needs "breaking in" is BS. If it is not reliable out of the box then there is something wrong. I am amazed that there are so many people who believe this BS.
Second, "limp wristing" is another excuse for a...
