My first post here.
Mine is RB8xxx
( Also my first new gun purchase ever)
Had intermittent FTE and light strikes. After break in, and realizing one mag spring was backwards , made it through an entire box of 50 with no problems. Last 50 had one light strike, and one stove pipe. I think I was getting lazy with my grip though.

Hi All.
We have two P380's. My P380 was purchased in July 09. RA1xxx. Put 275 rounds thru it. I just got back from the range earlier. I had a few jams and a non fire. Click. Then no problems while putting 75 more rounds thru it. My wife has a Pink P380. Purchased March 12. RB4xxx. She now has 275 rounds thru it. A few FTF, FTE at first. But the more she shot it, the better. It was jamming consecutive at first. I said. Gimme that gun. I shot it. No jams. She was limp wristing that P380. I said grab that gun like your gonna strangle it. No jams for her after that. Thats a real shame with all the problems with the P380's. We will see what delvelops with our guns. Keep you posted.

Mineis RA under 250. once back now seems very reliable. Last 75 roundswere perfect. I need to put some more through it, realy nice gun when it does what is is supposed to do. I wonder though how many P380's are sent back that nothig is wrong with them, other than shooter error. U flashman kinda proved that can happen especaly with a woman . probalby men no different either,
I kahr can make a pink P380 how about a camo green or sand color grip??. My PM9 has over 34,000+ rounds through it, and runs much better than an illegal trying to get across our border

Just bought a second P380... for my wife... RC89xx. That was the highest number out of 4 or 5 in the case. The others were RC36xx and RC6xxx.
"Impulse buy"... was on sale for $479.99 + tax + NIC = $518.59 out the door. Regular price was $599.99 at Shooters here in Jacksonville.
I haven't had a chance to take it apart and check it out yet. It came with one 6-round flush-fitting metal base plated mag and one 7-round extended grip mag. I hope that this one was made after any problems taht others have been having. I'll report on it after shooting it.
Ii went there looking for a CW9 to try, but it's too hard to rack for my wife.

My serial number is RA7XXX and was purchased in October 2010. Has been very reliable even through the break in period. About two months ago, I did begin to experience some light strikes and an occasional failure to return to battery, but changed the recoil springs and was back in business. It now has close to 1000 rounds through it. The only thing is that I do get failure to lock opens after last round is fired about 40% of the time, but I believe it is my grip contacting the slide release lever accidentally while firing.Regards,
Steve

Thats a good idea. It would be nice to have a different color pistol. I was told that the Pink P380's are a limited edition. Not making them anymore. I was kinda worried about my wife having a Pink gun. If she has to draw it on a bad guy. The bad guy may laugh and think its a toy. Pink is not very intimidating. I told her she may have to use it to change his mind. I originally took her Black/stainless P380 so she got pink. The reason I got her the P380 is that she has a Glock 27. She carried it for a little while. But it ended up home and not on her person. Its too heavy for her. So, she carries the Kahr P380 everyday. Its a small gun for a woman to carry.Originally posted by jocko View PostMineis RA under 250. once back now seems very reliable. Last 75 roundswere perfect.

That notch in the rail is supposed to be there
"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."
