Problems addressed and corrected by Kahr

[deanp1964]

well, I think its indisputable that Kahr (as well as all the other firearm mfg'ers) need to continue to strive towards zero defects out the door. Its not a foreign concept by any stretch of the imagination, that's for sure. It is basically the standard in most manufacturing sectors.

Repeat problems, especially, should be eliminated.

Although I can't speak to exactly what steps Kahr is taking to acheive this - I do sense that they are working towards it.

If Kahr, or anyone intimately knowledgable with any Kahr continuous improvement endeavors could speak to this, on this forum, it might be a good idea.

In the meantime, I'm a happy Kahr owner again. (PM9 & PM45)

If I have anymore problems, KahrTalk will be the second to know.

I received this email from Jay at Kahr today:

Good morning. We did receive the magazines yesterday and we turned
them around the same day. The FedEx tracking number is 4598 7504 ****. I
hope this information helps

they turned around the replacements the same day they received the defective magazines, AND sent them 2nd day delivery instead of ground delivery.
I'm very pleased with this -and am eager to get the new mags. (I'll probably run another 150 rounds or so through the gun this weekend)

Pretty pleased with Kahr today!

Jay is one of the good guys and a man of his word. He help me straighten out my CM9. Your in good hands with Jay.

In the few months I have been on this forum many of the problems Kahr owners have mentioned including myself (ie slide not feeding shell into chamber) nose dives, 2nd shell not feeding etc. May be due to a poorly designed magazine. It just blows me away Kahr would build such a high quality firearm and settle on a outsource magazine that does not live up the the quality of the rest of the gun.

Think about a well made auto. BMW, Honda, Mercedes, etc. Would you be eager to invest in one of these autos if you knew they decided to have an inferior auto manufacture make the transmission? How is this any different for Kahr? They make a very solid gun but settle for a third world quality magazine.

I would like for someone at Kahr in authority to come on this forum and justify why Kahr is ok with the current magazine. Russ

You got right on the target but it ain't happened.
I already talked to a few guys at Kahr about issues I've found from forums and do you know what are their responses?
"We sold thousands of pistols and only few whiners complained in those forums and not all of them are true."

Interesting. Every time I have called Kahr, their techs and sale people have been very helpful and professional...Somehow, I doubt what you posted is a direct quote.

Guess whose name in Kahr start with a R *wink*.
It might not be 100% word by word but the meaning and context is 100% true.

Some other famous quotes people might receive when they call
1) "your firearm is in the gunsmith's queue" <== what the heck does this mean exactly in real time?
2) "it would be shipped out this weekend" <== are U sure it will be or U just say to get me off the phone?
