    I'd say definitely NOT. That inner spring is a pain in the back side to get back on and the retainer nut shouldn't be messed with if it's tight and not working loose. Many have had them fall off at range. The gun still runs but you need to get a new one.

    At most I'd just put a drop or two of oil on it thru the spring and let it go.

    Most only replace the outer spring when the time comes and just leave the inner spring as is.

    Default Clean Out Hole? Help!

    Ok, been staring at my new Kahr P9 slide for an hour. Everyone's talking about spraying cleaner down the "clean out hole". I don't know where that is!! Can someone post a pic?

    Thanks!!!

    Looks like the Kahr lube diagram has disappeared again. I needed a new copy but can't find it.

    Does that mean that the trigger and all moving parts inside the frame require no lube? Does not seem right to me. I lube all moving parts.

    exactly what Bawanna says is the proper procedure. The outter spring on ur PM9 should slip right off..
    . My PM9 has over 40,000+ rounds through it, and runs much better than an illegal trying to get across our border

    Angry I wish I researched things better !

    Met a guy out in NV desert that raved about his Kahr. All these sensitive lube points. My sig sauer p-229 doesn't require all those lube points. Its been flawless for 18 years.

    Sig recommends the entire gun be rubbed with a oily patch, so in that respect you are correct... the Kahr has points, the Sig has just one BIG point.
    Judging by today's left wing, looks like Senator Joe McCarthy was right after all.

    Yes, but your Sig isn't nearly as compact as Kahr guns, with all of the machinery occupying minimum space.
    Very interesting...

    I oiled parts 7 and 8 and this past weekend I disassembled my slide and there was a ton of oil in the firing pin chamber. I think I am now going to oil the corresponding contact points in the frame. And maybe use grease instead of oil.

    How does that sound?
