I am so sick and frustrated !!
Well, I have a Kahr PM-9 that I bought brand new. The size and accuracy is so good. I shot hundreds of rounds to break it in, cleaned it good, shot it some more. Repeated this for like 1,500 rounds. I was and am willing to give the gun a good break in period. Well I have done that and I am still having Failure to Battery (FTB) occur when I have a full magazine in and fire the 1st shot. I have to lock the slide back and release the slide and it shoots the rest of the magazine just fine. It does this with different magazines, and unfortunately it does it with all different kinds of high $/Quality ammo, not just cheap Wolf or discount ammo.
I bought this gun to carry it as my primary CCW weapon, and I must be able to depend upon it 100%. If I don't have confidence in any weapon, it is a gone pecan.
I am in the process of sending it back to Kahr now. I will give the factory a chance to make it right. I hope they do as I love the size of the gun and it shoots so good.
My question to all of the people who have had PM-9's and had this problem - Is the factory going to fix it so that I will be able to have confidence in the gun and be able to carry it as my primary CCW?
Thanks for any feedback.
