The inside of that ejector does look rounded though. All of my other Kahrs have a sharp flat front across the ejector.

I should have worded my post better. The ejector should be secure in a way that it can not take a nose dive below the frame rails. I think that lateral play is normal providing the ejector does not interfere with the slide.

The cocking cam spring should keep the ejector pushed to the side of the frame. I doubt lateral play will cause your problem.

If you cannot find something conclusive, send it back with a few of your mangled cartridge cases. If the folks at Kahr don' t fix it this time I think they should provide you with a new, (not recycled) pistol.

I chime in with Mr. Jim K. Throw a handful of them mangled cases in with the gun for Kahr to look at. Suspect they'll get r fixed this time around.

I didn't think about it but you guys have a point. I'm going to send a few casings so they can see how bad they are.

that in ur photo. I have over 25,000 rounds out of my PM9 and the ejector looks totally new. I would say if u send the gun back indeed send the damaged worst casings and make note to look at the wear on the ejector also. I could see how that could be over looked even.

If one shot stell cased ammo alot, I could understand some noticeable wear on the ejector but in your case that was not true.

Lateral play on the ejector is normal. UP and down play is not.. as rev. Jim K stated..

i hope they get it straightened out for you.

You definitely have a timing problem. There are four components to the issue that I see: 1) Recoil spring power, 2) Ejector length, 3) Very sharp corners on the inside edges of the ejection port, 4) Low clearance between the barrel hood and the ejection port.

I had a serious issue with my P45 in that I could not clear an loaded round due to #2, 3 & 4 above, as well as the damaged brass issue. I solved that problem, and an issue where the slide would not strip rounds #2 & 3 from the magazine (any magazine) by polishing the inside edges of the ejection port (fwd inboard vertical and inboard horizontal -- DO NOT touch the locking corner = forward horizontal lower edge), and changing the recoil spring to a lighter one.

The ejector could be slightly shortened also, but I would do this last...

WARNING: DO NOT DO THIS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!! Your mileage may vary...

I'm am turning into a gun nut but am in my infancy so I don't know much at all. It's back at the mothership right now being worked on.
