Us that are in unregulated free states should be afraid of S. 843 by Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ). He is trying to close the so called gunshow loophole.
I like Chuck Hawks position.

I got my Protrusion guage today and measured all 4 Kahr's. They measured:
PM9 black with new striker .037
PM9 stainless .037
P9 .037
T9 .043
I am very happy and case closed.

I think a simple instruction would solve the problem.

" Hold the gun with the strength of lifting a 5 gal. bucket of water. As strong as a firm mans handshake. Not the polite ladies kind"
...

The supervisor had the information but could not release it.

I have 3 Kahrs that read .032" with a feelers guage.
If the new striker is .032" I will call that the spec.
I ordered a protrusion...

Thanks so much for the info.

The .010" is how much shorter my black PM9 than my other three Kahrs. The reason I am getting a new striker is that I could not find any spec. on protrusion. Kahr...

The "recommended way" is because most people can not release the slide without riding it part way back. The round or the gun does not know if the slide was released cleanly by hand or with the slide...

Over the weekend I measured two of my 4 Kahr strikers and the PM9 in question was .010" shorter. The .010" shorter was from the tip to the shoulder. The service department said not to worry if it...

I hear on all of the forums about slingshot way of pulling the slide back.
I was always taught to put the heal of my weak hand against the slide and wrapping my 4 fingers over the top of the slide...

Kahr customer service has not answered my question of what the spec is.
I think I am just stuck with figuring it out for myself. I measured three of my Kahr's at .032" and one is .028" so my guess...

I got a reply this morning. They said if no light strikes not to worry about it.
That makes me think it is never an issue unless it chips or breaks.
I think I am OK and it will not wear shorter.

This is all I can find. I like to know about mine too but was not willing to undertake this:

Disassembly/Reassembly Of the Kahr P45 Pistol

I guess you may be right but because it is my carry gun I would like to be sure. I will call Kahr and try to get their spec. I would think all Kahr 9mms should be the same even all calibers are the...

No issues but it is my full time carry gun and that it has less protrusion than my other Kahrs I have some concerns. I am measuring with feelers guage. I will get a guage from Midway on my next order.

My PM9 black has .028" firing pin protrusion and my other three 9mm Kahr's have .032". I have several Glocks that have .042" protusion. Is there a SAAMI spec for auto pistols? Anyone know what the...

I agree and carry non +P in my PM9 but have shot one round of +P+ just to see what the recoil was like. Then I read that they are not rated for +P+ any longer. Because there is no standard for +P+....

It looks to me that the P9 has greater lockup surface than the PM9.
This and longer recoil spring should add to longevity and hotter loads.

Uesd to be Glock 23 40 S&W but size matters so now:
PM9 black, night sights, IWB

PM9
PM9 night sights, black, 100% CCW
P9 night sights
T9 night sights
