Pm45 experience

[michstorm]

Probably gonna get one. I have a PM9 and had a P45 both have been flawless. I have read and heard there were some issues with the Pm45? any truth to that?
thanks

I had some issues with mine initially, but Kahr and I eventually got Boomer squared away... AKA "FrankenBoomer", as the only original part may be the slide lock pin/lever... really. Sometimes machining operations were missed or something just didn't work well with other parts, but it's fine now.

A few ftf fte....that moothed very quickly. Shoot FULL POWER ammo to minimize issues. Wwb and pmc are not full power.

Haven't had any issues at all with mine Ran strong right out of the box.

I owned one for about a year before it was stolen. I put about 700 to 800 rounds through it with no issues at all. That's why I'm waiting on the CM45, but still lobbying for an MK45.

Mine has been great. I can get a full-hand grip on it. You might want to wait for the cheaper CM45, which might actually start shipping some time this year. ;)

Love my PM45 - with a Pachmayr grip sleeve it feels the best in my hands of all my handguns. Shoots beautifully. You will love it.

No issues with my PM45. Just the cheese grater grip, which an inner tube takes care of.

thanks guys

The only issue I had with my PM45 was that my thumb, while firing, would occasionally hit the mag release... Ejecting the magazine from the weapon.

Personally I think it could be a tad lower... Like most standard pistols like the Glock design.

I have walthers, glocks, makarovs, springfields,etc and that has only happened with the PM45.

I have the same problem with my CW45. Not the CM9 or CM40, just the CW45. Not the 1911, SCCY, or any other semi-auto I've shot. Just the CW45.

Can't wait to try the CM45.

I had a few small issues very early on in the first 50-75 rounds break in period. A few failure to fully enter into battery...just bumped the slide and now problem. Also it use to dot my forehead with the extracted shell casings.
That stopped after the second box....most likely not holding on to that light pistol and a rather strong recoil spring. Also weak ammo may have contributed, but all is well now and it is quite a thumper to be sure.

after more than twice the break-in ammo and a little whittling on parts here and there on my part I was able to get mine to work 100%. they can be made to work correctly if you get a factory overlook. it would have been a much more enjoyable gun had it worked 100% from the start like my PM9....
