was blind but now i see!
Plenty of reviews and personal experience with a Kahr CM40 and two previous CW45's had me as the number one enemy of a Kahr firearm. Had 3 CW45's in the past and one CM40. 2 of the 3 45's had issues. One, the trigger would "fire" but no bang...one second later, it would strike and go boom. Scary. Several different ammo types. Typical jams and FTE's on both 45's. One of the three worked flawlessly and i always loved it. I only sold it for a little cash that I needed at the time. The CM40...never worked for me. Jams, fte's, even after the break in period.
However, I still always loved the way that CW45 felt! never carried an easier gun to carry and it was spot on accurate. Amazing trigger. So...I broke down and bought another. Bought a CW45 and took it to the range today...
PERFECT! 50 rounds of hunkin' chunkin' .45 ACP and not a single malfunction of any kind. BTW, this range session was all JHP's. Why carry a gun if I'm not certain it will shoot my carry ammo!? not anything expensive, just bought green and white box remington 230 grain JHP. 50 rds. for $25. Cheapo ammo! And it functioned perfectly! So, why would I purchase any other ammo? I'm not! It works, very accurate, remington it is.
When these Kahr Firearms work, they really are worth far more than you pay. If you get a lemon, and there seem to be plenty, send it to Kahr and let them fix it. Should you have to? Not at all. But if it happens, do it, you'll be glad you did. Because when that baby works, it works better than any other. I fired it along with my S.A. range officer, and was more accurate with the kahr! Never would've believed it.
I'm new here, hope I'm not wasting a post. Happy Shooting!:amflag:
