Anyone else have issues with their new Kahr pistols? Into it for about 500 rounds so far and I've had issues with:
1. Slide edges are very sharp at the grip...thumb bled today after an hour of shooting
2. Slide ejection cutout is RAZOR SHARP (don't ask)
3. Recoil spring is the stiffest I have ever felt on a 9mm pistol
4. Bad jams (i mean the scary kind)
5. Magazine won't release easily, and I literally have to hold the gun in both hands, push the release with all my strength, pull on the magazine
6. Magazine lips are narrow and each round has to be forced to seat (painful with a bloody thumb)
7. Already found a crack in the mag seam weld
8. The slide lock failed to engage about 1 of every 3 times after firing the last round
I was hoping this gun could replace an LC9 because, for me, the trigger is better and I can shoot it much more accurately, but the issues are troubling, to say the least. Never had a single issue with the LC9, other than the fact that the long trigger pull makes it more inaccurate in my hands.
