Has nothing to do with the lacquer coating. The lacquer or polymer coating does not melt and gum up the chamber.earlthegoat2 The laquer likes to gum it up in there and it can lead to your pistol or rifle locking up pretty good.
It's carbon buildup.
+1Average Joe If my guns can't handle steel cased ammo, they I don't want them anyway.
I own several Kahr pistols (K9, CW9, PM9 & P380) NONE of their manuals have that statement. The OM does recommend using the "highest quality factory ammunition" and to "avoid reloads, surplus and budget priced ammunition... (under the Reliability section). All four of my Kahrs eat Tula & Wolf like a six year old eats candy.chris in va IIRC my Kahr manual specifically states not to use steel case ammo.
