PM9 Locked Slide Problem -- pics of why

[Bawanna]

I have no doubt you'll get it. Just offering an option. You'll get it.
If you don't get it, and I end up getting it, I'm really gonna get it when the wife finds out I bought a grip model.

So I'm routing for you.

whats

It is a GC. But im pretty persistant, and im sure i'll get it up and running.
But that is good to know just in case

the problem with ur MK??? Strange they are just very reliable guns...

LOL, ah yes, the wives LOL.
Just buy her some flowers ahead of time.
Every time i tell the wife i went shopping, she immediately asks "did you buy ANOTHER GUN?" *while rolling eyes at me*

[Speedy]

Jocko, well i had two gunsmiths look at it and both said it looks like the spring broke off a small piece.
I hope thats all it is.

I'm not a big flower guy. We grow em outside. You pay outrageous prices for them for a quick smile, they die and go in the trash in less than a week and I still get the beating.

She likes jewelry, another pretty much wasted effort to me, but at least it last forever, usually don't lose value and its good for more than one smile (usually). Still don't save my beating but she tolerates guns, and I tolerate jewelry.

Sounds like a good compromise to me Bawanna!
Im guns, my wife is landscaping/interior design stuff lol.

as far as flowers, i hear ya on the value part. Im a mathmatician and the numbers are far from fair IMO.
BUT
my grandmother used to tell me, "dont bring me flowers when im dead (funeral/grave site), bring them to me now while im alive and can enjoy them!"
For the price of a box of ammo, I can get my wife some flowers (at krogers, nice ones too. or sams club sometimes).
You are right, it doesnt save me from the beating, but it helps a little lol.

Jocko, i will get some more pics up when i get a chance.

Thanks to everyone here for offering help

maybe pictures not needed even, just what spring might be broken etc.. what was the gun doing???

[Speedy]

Premature Slide Lock
Locks back with rounds in the mag.
its sparatic, happens with all my MK mags AND with all my K9 mags too!
when i take off the slide and put the slide stop back in the frame, its slightly loose. it rattles but not much. but enough to make me worry about it.
the rounds do NOT his the slide stop unless i intentionally push them to the left, then insert the mag.
thoughts?

ok, nowI see said the blind man. Indeed it could be that slide lock lever spring on the left side. If you will look in the kahr tech section of gb6491 sticky on cw and other fixes. he shows what a proper working and looking slide stop spring should look like.

I do feel ur issue is in the slide stop spring, being that spring also controlos the slide stop lever from moving outward, it just might be a bad spring. With the MK series it is a no brainer to replace that spring. Indeed call kahr and get a new slide stopspring and then retest. They might just send you that for nuttiun. I don't think you have a bad slide stop lever,u could maybe run that by kahr and see if they will send u a new lever also, but yo might be stgretching it some on that request...

[Speedy]

Yea, they sent me a spring for free.....although i did buy a 2nd spring at full price plus shipping, plus some extra wood grips

[Speedy]

Oh, and i think the quote is
"i see said the blind man to his deaf dog"
