new CM9 range trip problems

[crinko]

so after getting my CM9 yesterday i brought it home and cleaned it really good, after heading out to the range with 200 rounds i loaded up the magazine and begun to shoot my pistol. After all 6 rounds were fired the slide locked back like its suppose to, so i load another 6 rounds and the same thing happens. Im thinking here this thing should be OK well that's when i was wrong, now the slide is locking back "sometimes" after the last round. Then the recoil spring got hung up somehow and it took me about 5 minutes to unjam it. I'm guessing the slide locking back problem might have to do with the magazine and i have no idea what to think about the recoil spring but until i get a new mag i guess I'm gonna have to continue to carry my glock 33 http://www.handgunforum.net/images/smilies/022.gif what do you guys think the problems could be, i only have 100 rounds through it and i cant trust it right now. Thanks Guys

sounds like maybe u got the outtrer recoil spring on backwards. Openend of the spring goes towards the front of the slide. My bet it6 is ur reco8il spring causing failure of your slide to lock back, certainly not thge magazine..

u might want to visit the kahr tech section and look at two good sticky's

`1. Kahr lube chart
2 Propper prepping of ur new kahr.

I totally agree with jocko.
My CM9 is a perfect gun. Nothing stops it.
But it must be assembled correctly an prelubed according to the chart before shooting.

i checked the recoil spring i didn't know it came off, when i field striped it the guide rod and spring came out all as one unit and that's the way i put it back in. Monday is when I'm gonna go to the range next to try it out again i cant wait to carry this thing full time but still have to carry my damn glock
