CW9 gritty trigger

[soulfixinman]

When I ease the trigger back it makes a creaking noise and feels kinda gritty, where to lube for that?

When I ease the trigger back it makes a creaking noise and feels kinda gritty, where to lube for that?Blast out any grit, shavings, debris first...then see Kahr lube chart. If it moves and is shiney, lube it.

Take off the slide and look down at the trigger bar as it moves back. You will see a spring hooked over it. Mine did this also. The spring does not always move smoothly. I just take a small amount of TW25 grease and lube where the spring hook slides and the grittyness is gone. Dan

pay attentiohn to what WHALEMAN stated, that is where your ruffness is. Do ashe states and in timne this will all go away.

Last resort is to pull that right side side plate off and where that little spring rides on that triger bar, just smooth with some fine 600+ grip paper andit willbe fine,but IMO if u do the Whatlemans thing, u willbe goo dto go.

It si amazine what rounds down range willdo for a gun also.

OK thanks...I see it as part #14, I did not even see it when I looked earlier, I saw the trigger spring and put a few drops of lube on it....did not fix it.
If that spring slides on the trigger bar I can see how it could be the culprit.

thank you KTF!

I had same problem, but mine was in the striker it self, had to dissasemble slide completely and clean out striker channel and striker full of krud!!!! When striker was pulled back it felt very grimmy!!! Now its smooth!!!!!

[jocko]

good idea, Use that clean out hole on the bottom of the slide and just spray the living piss out of it and I bet it will clean that striker channel OK, I would do both, just to be sure. I am more prone to even think it could be some crud in the striker channel making u feel that gritty feel. as normally that trigger bar spring is not an issue.

yah I did the CRC brake cleaner blowout of the stryker channel earlier today and it did not show any crud coming out of there so I will try the trigger bar spring.

Lets keep the blues alive
Luther Allison was "The Soulfixinman"
August 17, 1939 — August 12, 1997

Stevie Ray Vaughan (http://www.srvofficial.com/us/home) (October 3, 1954 – August 27, 1990) was an American electric blues guitarist and singer whose life was cut tragically short in a helicopter accident. Stevie wrote songs and sang them, but no one ever could make an electric guitar sing the blues like Stevie could. I still miss him.

Ok .....off subject here but I will no longer have a favorite guitarist because the three I had. Jimi Hendrix, SRV, and Luther Allison are gone.

I will lube that trigger bar spring today....
