Before and in between I've owned an LCP, a Pico, and very briefly a Taurus TCP. All had issues and none were close to being as shootable as the Kahr in my opinion.
I'm curious to try the new Taurus Spectrum. The specs look good but they're way behind in making them available. Same thing happened when the CW380 first came out.
UPDATE 8/31/17 - CW380 #4 came back quickly from Kahr with an "upgraded extractor" so I guess that was the problem with this recent batch. Anyway, I finally got to shoot it a couple days ago. MUCH BETTER. No jams or failures to feed at all, but it did lock back prematurely. I have 4 mags and had the problem at least once with each mag. I use the same mags in my other cw380 and never have this happen, so its not the mags. The problem diminished as the session went on. I quit after shooting a box, will clean, lube and try again. I hope the problem disappears by end of next session. If not, back she goes again.
Meantime if anyone has insight into what may cause a CW380 prematurely to lock back, NOT related to the magazine, I'd appreciate.
