I'm a long-time Kahr fan. Several Kahrs in the past and a P380 & PM9 in my current inventory. I picked up my new PM45 (replacing a Kimber Ultra) this week and made it to the range for a quick 200 rounds. Extremely happy. Couple of early FTFs, but by the end, it was running great. I used 3 different types of range ammo for the break-in and at the end of the session I loaded 5+1 of my carry ammo (Critical Defense). The carry ammo cycled fine in a REALLY dirty weapon. There are several on-line videos, show PM45 ejected brass hitting the shooter in the head. Happily, none landed on my noggin. Still a Kahr fan....
