I read many post where a "break in" period is discussed. As a long time shooter and gun owner, I find this phrase perplexing. What exactly is being broken in...what change is occuring in the gun that makes it better? It has always been my opinion that a well made gun should be at it's peak on shot one, and begins to go downhill after that, that it should leave the factory ready to operate.
What change is expected? Do the springs get better, does the mag feed better, do the guide rails guide better? I believe Kahr for one recommends a breakin period for their guns, (I don't own a Kahr), but why? Is it to flesh out problems?
Set me straight...I just don't get it. :banghead:
