CW9, break in is flawless, Plasti-Lube

The Trapp is actually made from thinner kydex than the standard PJ. The Trapp is 0.060 and the PJ is 0.80 with the 0.60 as an option. IDK, I haven't tried the PJ, but I would guess the Trap is on par with the tuckable PJ. I agree, I waited about a month and a half to two months for a horse hide Theis holster (http://theisholsters.com/index.php) for the LC9 I had.

No. The PJ IWB is made of 0.60 as well. The OWB is the one that is thicker. You can see from pictures how much smaller it is. There is not an extra millimeter there that isn't needed. And it is rounded and contoured so that it is perfectly comfortable.

Here's were I got my info on the PJ http://pjholster.com/?page_id=382 I can't say how close the 2 holsters are, but I'm guessing they're both good holsters. Do you have a Trapp also? If not maybe itsthelaw will give us a comparison. I'm not saying the foxx is better, or even as good, I'm saying it works great for me, good enough that I don't see a need to get a PJ. In fact it works so well, sometimes I forget it's there.

For a Foxx Trapp thread

I have a PJ Holster that I am starting to really like, so I will be able to compare.

I've been really happy with the synthetic "green" marine grease. Green in that its actually bright green. There's also a blue and red formula.... Green seems to stay put on things - locking areas of barrels.

Anything else - rails and such, no grease, just break free.

For a while, folks in the Custom 45 world (now known as the 1911 world) were extolling the virtues of Mobil 1.

Seems every generation has its favorite goo for guns.

+1 On cleaning every 50 rounds during the break-in period. A lot of newbies try to run 200 hundred rounds of the cheapest ammo that they can find in one range session and then wonder why they experience problems. You're taking the right approach.

Muggsy Just know with good ammo, quality lubes, maybe good cleaning skills up front and decent shooter skill these kahr will easily run 600 rounds with no extra cleaning or extra lube . Good way to also find out if the handgun is picky about haveing to be spotless. Maybe I have been lucky but I have never owned a picky firearm when it comes to cleaning or ammo in 43 years. I did the same thing with my two KT's I had.

Guys, you are dead on! I have owned several firearms, some I shot in highpower competitively, some I shot in Bullseye competitively (ya I know, bullseye was not for me either), and in every case, multiple cleaning sessions from the initial breakin were invaluable. I have NEVER had any handgun that had cycling or operation problems after say about 150-200 rounds that was the guns fault. Ammo, limp wristing, yes, but not the guns fault.
It goes without saying, that procedures and instructions are an important part of initial operation. Good luck everyone, Merry Chrismas
