It's hard to tell from the photo, but the "notch in your slide looks a little rough. There's some info on it here: http://www.kahrtalk.com/showthread.php?1612-CW45-%28and-other-poly-45%29-issues-and-fixes&p=15876#post15876

As far as the serial number goes, there's a sticky that leads to some info: http://www.kahrtalk.com/showthread.php?207-Kahr-Serial-Number-History-by-WIG19-on-GlockTalk

Greg,
we're in the wrong business, we should be selling MiniMill's. so when somebody gets a box of unfinished parts from Kahr or others, we sell them the milling maching, maybe a lathe to, so they can fit and finish their crappy gun. hours of pure entertainment in the basement tool room. hell, ya know I'm still dreaming about building a 1911 from pieces.
