I had my doubts about this pistol before going to the range today. I previously owned a CW40 and a PM9 both of which broke and would not fire. I never sent the guns in, I just traded them and took a big hit financially on something else. I really lost the confidence I had in the brand. I thought I would give it another shot and purchased the CW 380 over the Glock 42. The Glock was so much bigger to pocket carry it just didn't make sense to me. I could just as easily pocket carry my Sig p290rs. Well with reservation I shot the Kahr today and am pleased to inform that the little pistol perform flawlessly!!! I shot 70 rounds of Underwood ammo with the XTP bullet and it performed as it should and locked back on the last round every time. I was very careful not to put my thumb forward as to touch the slide release. I just moved it away from the frame and it locked back every time. I bet this is why guys are having issues. Underwood does run a little hotter than most rounds and maybe that's why my little pistol performed so well. Very happy after today's results, I was expecting the worst.

Welcome to the forum!

So glad the CW380 is working out for you. Sorry to read about your giving up on the nine and the forty.

It's a shame that you sold your other Kahr pistols at a loss. The could have easily been made to work properly by the Kahr service techs. Have a little faith next time.

The 2nd thing that surprised me is how accurate it is for a tiny pistol. I shot it much better than my brothers 38 snub!
