Details? Ammo used?


I tried a variety of Rem, Fed, Fiocchi, Cor-Bon, and Speer FMJ and HP (varied weights too) to break it in. Out of all that ammo, Rem UMC HP was (surprisingly) the best but even with that I rarely made it through a mag without a FTF.



Semi-autos can be a real pita at times - both in handguns and rifles.. Many end up being quite 'ammo-specific'....i.e., they like ONE maker/type and that's IT.. Kahr recommends running at least 200 rounds through for the break-in period. Guess I'm lucky.. The (5) ones I've had have all been w/o failure as far as feeding/firing/ejection.. Only ONE, my P-9, had a failure of a rail on the frame. I sent it to Kahr and they replaced the entire frame with a new S/N and accompanying letter to keep for my records. It was done quickly and free - even though that handgun is at least 7-8 years old..
