Despite the grip limitations with GA, GC and LTD these older builds are desirable in some ways to later builds?
Please go into this a bit.
Thanks.

Alas, a return to form with frequent FTL over multiple brands of ammo plus most recently a series of light strikes on first round using stock six round magazine (but not six and seven round Magguts...
DSK, I commend your persistence sorting out the multiple failure points encountered with Kahr's promising yet work in progress CW380. Along this journey I find your reports and the many suggestions...
Two months later.
How did you resolve your CW380 issues?
Thanks.

Great suggestion.
Having no prior issues with 9mm and .40 S&W I'm amazed at the issues I'm having with 380 Auto and my CW380.
What's even more curious no problems with the BodyGuard 380 or LCP...
Galloway's aftermarket parts are interesting especially their trigger kit for the BodyGuard 380.
You mentioned a Galloway spring kit for the CT380 or for my CW380. I did not see these Kahr...
Just guessing, the crack was in the embedded metal component of the reinforced polymer forestock/forend?
Six years later I'm interested in how flyboy resolved his issues.
I have been under the same or similar cloud for the past seven months from day one with my copy of the CW380. In the meantime...
For a while the second factory trip resulted in no failures, but alas, nose diving into the feeding ramp eventually returned as before. I do believe the fix as noted by the OP will work but cannot...
Got to the range about a week later, ran 100 rounds without failures. I did experience failure of slide to lock back after last round once when i ran the stock 6 round mag - I only used this stock...
Send it to Kahr for service. Took two trips plus on my part adjustment of the slide stop spring and Maggots spring and follower to fix my CW380. Oddly it had the same issues as your CM9 except the...
Prior to heading out for the range I decided to tackle adjusting the slide stop spring. There is a YouTube video that shows the procedure well here http://bit.ly/2l6YHzD especially at the 2:00 mark...
Follow up to #22 above...
The bottom line is that my copy of the similar sized Ruger LCP 2 runs all the ammo that my copy of the CW380 chokes on with all the malfunctions discussed here and...

Dawson has YouTube videos. I've watched several and found them informative. Running stock sights on my guns so far except for the Glocks.

Please post your findings when installed. I and I'd guess others will be interested in the resulting accuracy using the stock front sight.
TIA.

The CW380 was returned for warranty service (purchase new September 23, 2016) to Kahr due the premature slide lock and received yesterday. Given both I and another experienced Kahr owner had...
Yes, me.
My CW380 has been experiencing premature slide lock at random points in the magazine stack. This is indicative of a inadequately tightened, poorly adjusted or weak spring. This spring...
Thanks.
I applied enough torque with my calibrated elbow to satisfy me that it was snug as shipped. I believe that's what support was expecting.

Mike, a couple of follow up questions.
1. What followers are you using in your two 7 round mags and your 8 round mag?
2. Did you try a new slide stop?
3. Did you file anything for clearance?...
Is there a spec on tightening the torx screw. Kahr suggested I check to see if it's loose as I'm experiencing premature slide locks.
And if loose to snug it a little.
Thanks.

Thanks for the insight.
The issues you discussed with the 7 round extension concerned me as well. Especially the cant first time I used that mag.
Yesterday I bought a second 6 rounder and will...
Follow up to #63 - CW380 returned to Kahr for repair WITHOUT altering the original extractor.
Sent prepaid FedEx last Thursday and received back via FedEx the following Thursday. Overnight...
