Bulged/Swollen Frame?

[texsky]

Just wondering if anyone else has a frame that looks like this. I have 1,845 rounds through this PM9 and absolutely NO problems. It's the perfect carry weapon. Sure has an odd looking frame though. The Kahr online pictures of the PM9 certainly do not show anything like this. I shot it quite a while before I even noticed it. Of course now that's all I see whenever I look at the gun. Still love it though!

Mine has !500 rds thru it and it looks the same

"By design" I guess. Mine is the same, too.

Has anyone ever call Kahr to check on this buldge, sure does Not seem right.:7:

Mine also has a bit of a bulge that I hadn't really paid attention to. Gun runs flawlessly. Not sure if I should stay in this forum...keep reading reasons to go check my gun that I never would have thought to look at....I guess I'll do the glass half full thing and say I'm getting an education.

Well I`ll be darned.Mine has a bulge too.Never noticed it before now.Hmm.

"By design" I guess.

x2 Mine was like that new. It's got about 500 rounds though it and it doesn't seem to be growing any. I'd like to measure the distance between the steel rails in various spots, I'd bet they are parallel and the bulge has to do with how they are molded into the plastic frame.

Not buldged, it is designed that way. Haven't seen one yet that isn't that way. Mine is exactly like that and has over 25,000 rounds through it. That front steel slide rails is one peace molded in the frame and that little nick on the left side of the rail is a mfg-er proof mark. Makes no sense why it is there but it is not a defect or chip out of the steel rail.

It certainly won't grown any either....

not to long ago a fella posting a picutre of his polymer kahr on the right side stating back by the rear of the grip his is cracked up at the top. I think most all knew without even looking that it was the side plate and he was looking at the seems, and the photo was dead right to.

Wonder if all Kahr's polymer models has the same bulge? Will be interesting to compare.

My PM40 has the bulge. Hmm, so do I, now that I think about it. :hungry:

I wondered who was going to be the first to make that comment!

I was wondering who would be the 1st to comment on Raoul's comment.

So much better to be a winner than "average".

My PM9 has it too. I guess it's unanimous. We can all relax now.
