My CW9 is here

I think that's where the scraping is, in the trigger bar area. No way I'm going to disassemble that, the parts are too tiny to deal with. I'm still hoping the parts mate up eventually and it moves as silky smooth as every other Kahr I've experienced.

190 rounds of FMJ and 28 rounds of Hornady Critical Defense, everything's good. No issues, other than my 8 round magazine flew apart, shooting the spring 3 yards downrange. The trigger is still creaky, I don't like that. But it works great and shoots a ragged hole so I'm not worrying about it.

Nice... except for the magazine. I put a tube grip cover on my P40 today(Friday) but haven't cleaned it yet. I may go ahead and put a 5-lb Wolff striker spring in it, too. I got a 10-pack, I think. The only one I returned to original is the PM45 after a few possible light strikes one range trip. Most of my pistols are 5 to 5 1/2 pound trigger pulls... with the 5-lb springs or Ghost connectors for my Glocks... except for the G43 which had the new and improved connector giving the 5.5 lb or thereabouts pull.

Once in a while i get a "double" when I too quickly try to take up the slack... all on the letter-sized target so far, though.

How much difference does the striker spring make?

[Bawanna]

I've found that it varies some. My PM45 must have been a bit on the light side as it was just over 5# to start with. The 5# spring was only slightly better but probably improved a bit with time. Had I not had a scale to measure I probably would not have been able to tell the difference.

Others are more in the 5 1/2 to 6# range and the 5# spring is a more noticeable improvement from the get go.

The Hogue slip-in is awesome. The trigger bar spring slides on the trigger bar and can give a gritty feel to the trigger. Using Molybdenum Disulfide on the sliding parts will improve the feel of the pistol. I guess the spring and bar could be polished, but I haven't.

I think that's where the scraping is, in the trigger bar area. No way I'm going to disassemble that, the parts are too tiny to deal with. I'm still hoping the parts mate up eventually and it moves as silky smooth as every other Kahr I've experienced.

A little dab of grease right here might help:

Yep, I always lube my trigger bars.
