This is the design in all the Kahr pistols and is normal. If it's a new pistol with feeding or FTRB problems then send it back (theycouldn't make mine run after 4 trips and I got a replacement). If this is a new problem on an older pistol with lots of rounds then I'd fluff and buff AND replace the recoil spring. I would not stretch the old one...AlaskaErik said:I was wondering about the nose dive issue myself. I noticed that while the top round in the mag is angled with the top of the magazine, the rest of the rounds are more angled with the base plate. The result is a big gap between the top round and the rest of them. My other pistols don't have this gap. I'm going to give it a good cleaning and try again. If that doesn't work, I'll send it to Kahr. If that doesn't work, I'll try the fluff and buff on the feedramp. I still don't think limp wristing is an issue. I'm a pretty big guy and I hold that thing firmly.
What happened???
Agreed. Far and away, my best carry pistol has been a Browning BDM 9mm semi-auto. Once broken in, that is. And that took a long time. After 10K rounds, it was loose enough to not be failing at all, if it weren't for a slide problem. After replacing the slide, it just kept on tickin' all the way past 35K rounds. Never should have sold it. The last 10K rounds were error-free. Accurate out to 50ft as any handrun I've shot. I'm convinced the reliability was due to the extended use.I don't understand why gun companies do this (Kahr, Kimber). They build CARRY guns tight. Build them loose or less tight. It makes no sense to have a gun that needs a break in period that one will carry. Any SD shooting with these guns will be at 10 yards or less anyway.
