Hi folks!
I got a CW9 NIB about a month ago. bought a spare mag aswell.
well, Im impressed so far.
Ive got about 400 rds thru mine, flawlessly.
Ive only fed it 2 brands/types of ammo so far: Winchester 11Gr.FMJ (whiteBox) and CCI Blazer 115Gr. FMJ.
The CCI are much more accurate and clean preforming in this pistol. they feel a tad bit punchier, but I can followup shots alot faster and more precise with them.. Im thinking they work better with my grip/recoil anticipation.. as with the Win's I follow up shots a lil low on double taps.
the HougeHandall Jr slip-on fits comfy on the CW9, but I havent used it for firing yet.. mainly I just wanna feel the pistol out a while before I train with the grip.. and in rapid fire with other guns, Ive had the "Slip-On's" Slip off, well actually just slip down a bit.
So Ill feel it out a bit later.
I did have some initial concerns with the Kahr.. such as a round hanging up on the feed ramp if I didnt drop the slide fast.. and on the back of the gun where slide meets polymere, there was a very clean precise meeting of the slide and frame, and its grooves. well after firinf the gun, the slide has frayed/sheared off some of the polymere... this concerned me.. but since the first few rds, has not been effected any more, so Im thinking it is due to how tight the giun is fit..
Overall Im quite impressed with the preformance... I am however, not impressed with the two above mentioned concerns! I find it Very rediculous that the MFG of a pistol, for this price, even mention a 200 rd break in period for a pistol dubbed a carry gun! Horrible!
Kahr needs to do some MAJOR work on their feed ramps! Major! its where about every problem relating to Kahr arms is associated..
Considering the most perfect small gun Ive owned was a Taurus PT111MilPro, over 4 thousand Flawless rds of Many ammos and NO concerns about ANYTHING on the pistol, for MUCH less than ANY Kahr... oh, an a mirror polished CHROME lined feedramp... Kahr has some work to do and NO excuses, because they are collecting more than enuff cash!!
Thats my only complaint about the pistol.. its components extremely lack quality for the pricetag, comparatively. EXTREMELY!
Otherwise Im loving the new piece!
Highly carryable, easy to draw, great pointability, accurate, and so far reliable!!
