I was shooting a local IPSC match last weekend, 3 shots into the stage, the FS Trijicon FS flew off. I finished the stage without any FS and as very lucky that the FS hit the Safety Officer and he was able to locate it after I finished the stage. It looked like the posts on the bottom of the FS had snapped off.

I first called Trijicon and they told me it is Karh Arms warranty not theirs. I contacted Kahr Arms was told to send the slide in and they will fix it. I was also told the FS is not repairable and they will install a new Trijicon FS under warranty. It is a great deal and I will report back once I receive the slide back in 3 weeks.

Must have been done correctly to begin with. Glad they are fixing it for you on their dime.

Hmm, that looks like a Dawson Precision sight to me. Did the CW9 come NIB with that sight?

Wow, I shipped the slide to Kahr on 5/26/16 and today, 6/1/16 I received the slide back from Kahr with a brand new Trijicon FS. I am very impressed with Kahr's customer service.
