Well I went out today to shoot a little bit and then do a good cleaning but in the first mag I had a new problem. I shot a couple rounds then I pulled the trigger and.....nothing. The trigger had never reset, no resistance. I pulled back the slide an inch or so released, pulled the trigger, and....bang. What the heck??
The next mag it did it twice, so not knowing what to do I proceed to cleaning. After a good cleaning and fresh lube it now does it after every shot. I chamber a round, it shoots chambers another round and... nothing. Then I pull the slide back a bit, release and then bang. At which point it will chamber another round and... you guessed it, nothing.
I cannot get this to happen when dry firing, and every time I manually release the slide it will go bang, it just does this cycling from recoil.


I have absolutely no idea what could be causing this. Any ideas?

is the slide fully closing, If it is the slightet big not into full battery this will happen??. Soundslike the gun is out of time but not sure there is a cure for it other than going back to kahr..

As best as I can tell the slide is going back fully into battery. I'll shoot a it a little more just to double check, but I feel sure it is.
This gun has been to C&S so I doubt KAHR would touch it. I'll probably give C&S a call tomorrow and go from there, since there doesn't seem to be anything I can do. I hate say it but this was a better gun before it went to C&S.

C & S have it back to make it right. I do agree with u. they did about a grands worth of sh-t to my PM9 and I had to send it back to them twice as they never put it back togetherRIGHT and even the second time back they screwed it up. I was very unhappy with the "quality" of the work that they are supposably known for. Personally I wasted a grand on their work to. Call them and they will give u their fed x number to send it back.

Being kahr shows C k& S guns on thier webb site etc, I would think they wouldwarranty any of their work to, but if it worked right whe u sent it to them, then C & S messed up, not kahr..
