    Interesting for sure...

    Like someone already said, maybe we will see more of these before Kahr gets a handle on it.

    Possibly it's just a one of a kind freak happening.

    IMO, Kahr will make it right.

      LOL, my Saiga .308 had a front sight base pin put in at such an angle that it came through the top of the base. Calling around for a new sight base, a gunsmith in Texas commented that they must have done that sight base on "Vodka Friday" at Izhevsk

        Got it back quick with great customer service. I'm just not too happy with the condition I got it back in. The gun I sent in was a fine example with not one blemish. It seems their quality control has gone down hill.
        The machining on the new slide is poor is can be seen through the finish in a lot of places. The fit and finish just isn't all there. There is a little dent on the front of the slide above the barrel. The new takedown pin has several blemishes on it. And what irritates me the most are the sights. The front sight has a scratch down the top and a dent on the corner facing the shooter. The rear sight is visibly off center and looks like it was installed with a hammer and screwdriver.
        I expected better than this
        I already got Ok'd to send it back for inspection but it'd be on my dime this time. These problems are small and aren't worth it. I just think they should have been corrected before leaving the gunsmiths bench.
        I will be asking for a new set of sights and takedown pin that I'll replace myself.
        What do you think?

          sights look like sh!t. the take down lever, it is a MIM part and that flaw can occur. U can file it smooth if u so desire but to be honest, "live with it" and just shoot it like u stole it.
          . My PM9 has over 34,000+ rounds through it, and runs much better than an illegal trying to get across our border

            Got a message back from Jay already. New sights and slide stop are on their way.
            I'd really like to point out how awesome customer service has been. My emails have been replied in minutes most of the time, even on sunday evenings. My questions have been answered and shipping and turnaround were much faster than anticipated. I only wish the gunsmith that worked on this took as much pride in his job.
            I'm heading out to put 300rds through her this afternoon. You all have a great day.

              mtnwkr,
              I'm in total empathy with you. That's shoddy work on the sights and that slide stop could easily been cleaned up (especially on a gun being turned around for a major part failure).
              I do commend you for getting past all that and hitting the range: good shooting to you.

              BTW, as you'll be replacing the front sight yourself, you might want to consider spending a few bucks and upgrading to a metal one.

              Regards,
              Greg
