This is my first post. This is my first pistol purchase, got the cm9 for ccw. I read lots and followed break in from this forum, very helpful, and thanks to all.

Any one else had a burr like this? I ended up filling it down with 600 sandpaper before I took the pictures. Oops, I realized as an afterthought I might post about it. I'm pretty sure it appeared after my break in 200 rounds. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/02/09/upu4apan.jpg

I'm not too worried about it, and plan to just keep shooting. Very happy with my purchase, just curious to hear if others encountered the same?

You did exactly the right thing. Smooth it off a bit. It most likely will not return and should be nothing to worry about.

Welcome aboard, glad you found us.

Once u get it filed kand smoothed out It normally stops. welcometo the nut house. I wa shired by this forum to keep peace and to keep the guys straight.I don't post often either. I am u sually busy back in the barn with my horses...

Cool, thanks guys. After reading about how to handle some of the other issues I figured this was no biggie and just sand it down.

Jocko, I've read enough posts of yours already to say thank you for all your wisdom and I know your blowing smoke!
