I promised a review to Alfonse and hear it is. I received the follower in 4 days. Should've been 3 but I have a slow PO. I ordered it because I had a broken follower in 1 of the mags I received when I traded for my blunt nose PM9. I decided to install it in my 6 round carry mag instead of the extended mag. It fit perfectly, looks great, works even better and,,,,,,,,I can load a mag, with the slide down, and slingshot the slide with no issues at all. I can even ride the slide very slowly and it still goes into battery. Holds the slide open on last round and fired all 4 mags flawlessly. Top notch part, top notch material and over the top business. I'll be ordering more for the rest of my mags. Thanks so much, Alfonse, for offering a superb product. Y'all need to get ya some. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160311/bfdc9aa36305a756a0aad7287195698f.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160311/aa6acdc09b3a836d3df1e8b80fd0595b.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160311/e9dcc278b93d32fe94ff235ef44a1ef5.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160311/b5bd47a4700d3ccec7e902ca7a73c1c4.jpg

I received mine as well and they functioned perfectly. The only thing I noticed was that the slide has to be pulled back fractionally further to sling shot but it always works. I also noticed one of my springs was installed backwards from the factory....overall the product is nails.

Any reports on how well these followers are working in the 7 round magazines?

I haven't tried them in my 7 rounders yet. I'm sure Alfonse has and will be along to clarify.

They work fine for me. They will only improve feeding.

I have the followers in two seven round mags for my CW9 and have no issues.

I ordered a couple of followers today, largely because I want to make the pistol work more fluidly with its owner, not because I consider dropping the release a hassle. I'm currently auditioning a heavier outer recoil spring (10.5 lbs.) from Wolfe as well. I'm seeking some minor mods to improve my experience and accuracy. I hope they get them shipped before they go on vacation (March 20). They said so long as you got them ordered by Saturday afternoon, which I did... ;-)

Al will come through for you, have no doubt. Take it to the bank and draw interest.

I have these followers in all my CM9 mags and all work and/or cycle great. I have 2 six rounders, 1 seven rounder, and 1 eight rounder. All factory Kahr mags but with Al's followers. The only one I still have trouble being able to sling shot a round with is the 8 rounder, but that's a back up mag only anyway so I figure the slide will be locked back when I load that bad boy and I can just hit the slide release and be ready to rock... :)

I run them in every capacity mag. No stoppages yet of any sort.

They shipped. I shipped all orders that were taken. I stopped orders except those from the 3d printer until we are shipping again. Thanks!

Lakeline follower took a 7rd mag for my cm9 from totally unreliable to totally unstoppable! Unreal the improvement! I would trust my life to this mag now! Lakeline FTW

Jeez... you guys just spent my money for me! With reviews like this how could I not order something that would improve the reliability of my primary cary gun? Order just placed for 3 of Al's followers.

I will say that Al's followers are first class all the way. I traded off my Kahrs but kept the followers, lol. I ended up with another CM9, ordered 2 extra mags, installed the followers, ran 100 rounds through it and everything is great.

Can anyone tell me what the shipping costs are?

I'm wondering if the problem with being able to slingshot the slide could be partially caused by pinching at the top of the mag rather than entirely the way the round sits on the follower. I've noticed that, with some Kahr mags, I can drop the follower in and it falls into place. On others, it stops before it reaches the top of the mag. One, which had been sent with the gun on one of it's trips back to Kahr, came back so pinched that the spring could not push it all the way to the top. Just a thought.

I think shipping is around $5. The pinching sure could cause an issue.

Does the new follower remedy the jamming issue with the 7 round magazine? I tried the fix to no avail.
