Hello fellow Kahr owners:
Third trip to the range with my PM9193 (manual safety and LCI). Shot 100rds (300 total) of WWB.
1st trip- 100 rds... no failures of any kind.
2nd trip- 100 rds...2 misfires. Not sure if it was the gun (light strikes) or ammo (hard primers).
In any case I loaded both rounds at the end of the session and both fired fine.
3rd trip- 100 rds...2 failure-to-feed/fire but not quite sure what happened.
Here is the story:
Towards the middle of the session after the 3rd round of a mag I pull the trigger and nothing. I look at the gun and notice the LCI is down...no ammo in the chamber. I am thinking failure-to-feed so I rack a new round and pull the trigger but nothing happens. The LCI is now up and then I notice the manual safety is engaged. I don't know if it engaged by itself through vibration of the gun or if I accidentally engaged it with my fingers during recoil. If it engaged by itself that is a problem. If I engaged it that is still a problem but one I can solve by training. After that incident all other rounds fired fine. I will pay closer attention to my grip from now on.
