    I will second what others are saying here. I have had two kahrs with the striker not resetting issue. A P9 and a CW9. The striker channel was the culprit on one. Some small shavings in there, probably from manufacturing, prevented stuff from doing as it should. The other was the same, but also, the striker body had some shiny spots. I cleaned both and ran a polishing cloth around the striker body (part that will contact the striker chanel) until all shiny. Other than that, shaping a cw380 extractor are the only "concerns" I've had with any Kahr, and I've had a few. Hope you can figure out whats up with your 45. I'm looking for a good, local deal on another cw45 myself. I miss carrying that one!

    It took about 6 weeks for the PM45 to make it back from Kahr customer service. Had a couple of FTF during the first mag. After those initial problems it has been functioning with no problems! Action taken was the installation of a striker spacer! 100 rounds after the repair and no problems to report. Thank you Kahr service department!
