I can't find the thread where I posted a picture. Actually two trigger bars broke.

Here's one. Doesn't mention on the return to kahr that it was broke, only that it was replaced. Could have been broke.

Funny we haven't heard more of this.

Well....that does it. I'm sellin' off all my Kahrs and buying more Glocks.

Well, I found the picture of the trigger bar on the other computer. First time was four years ago, can't find the pict of the second time. I'll get it over to the tablet and post it. Kahr CS was not concerned about braking, just sent me a new bar.

I could only find the one where you posted the bar broke at about 6000 rounds through your PM9: http://www.kahrtalk.com/showthread.p...-at-6-000-rnds

There was mention of the bar being replaced in your PM45 because it was out of spec: http://www.kahrtalk.com/showthread.p...990#post330990

I have't seen or read of many instances of the Kahr trigger bars breaking so I'd certainly like to see the photo of the second bar if you find it.

Out of curiosity, I asked at the local range that rents Kahrs about broken trigger bars and they couldn't recall it happening in any of theirs. I bought a P380 they had as a rental and while it had problems, the trigger bar was not one of them.

Greg, how did you find them. Yes that's the pict, the second bar broke at the same spot. The PM45 bar had worn a bevel with a bur on the top of the reset tap. I never had the stainless bar made, but did purchase a stainless trigger bar for my xdsc9 from springer precision. It's a work of art.

Looks like it broke at a bend. I wonder if it had a small crack in the beginning from being stamped during manufacturing or something and it finally broke due to use?

[DJK11]

Yes both bars broke at the same bend. Gunsmith, RIP, that I spoke with at the store/ range said the bars he replaced broke at the same location. This store/ range is one of the largest S&W dealers in the midwest, not some small mom and pop operation. This year they have stopped stocking Kahrs, didn't ask why. A couple of employees do carry Kahrs, they like the TP series.
