Kahrtalk is very tolerant

[Bawanna]

Aw shucks, Mr. B, you don't have to do that. Truth is I don't wear hats unless it's raining. May wear a scarf around my neck this winter tho. It's pretty bad when your neck gets stuff but your .... doesn't. I supose that should go in the "You know you're an old fart when..." thread.

It's already in the box. Wear it when it rains, it'll look good on the dresser. I don't think Kahr has scarfs, I'll check with my people and put that on the to do list. Have embroidery machine won't travel.

I know about the stiff neck thing. Sometimes ponder raising the work bench but then the shoulders *****. Do I want some cheese to go with my whine. No thanks, don't do dairy. Maybe just a splash of scotch though.

Great post Bawanna! I am just now checking the forum and read your post. Wow! You are very articulate. I guess that is why you make the big bucks as mod on this forum! I could never do what you do. My patience is too short! I must admi however, this is the best forum I have ever seen. I am on a few others (not gun related) but all based upon a given product that everyone shares interest in. None of the others compare to this. I am (was) also on Glocktalk but I do not need to say anymore about that forum. It is like night and day.

I think JohnH, JustinN and Bawanna are doing a terrific job managing this forum. But most importantly, I think we have a really great group of members as well. With the exception of a few, the members here provide good usefull information and some great humor I really enjoy participating in this forum.

I have not had any bad experiences with my PM9. so have never had any issues to report. Actually, the Kahr pistols I have fired have all worked quite well. The "operator" (aka me) has had more issues then the pistols!

Oh well...., enough of my rant! Good post Bawanna. Maybe JohnH will give you a raise! BTW, where's Jocko? I am surprised we have not heard form him!

Well said, Mr.B! Dont know why you spend so much time at the kiddie table when you obviously have the clout, wit, and wisdom to reign supreme at the adult table!

[Bawanna]

Thanks again guys. I like the kiddie table myself, I don't have to pretend to act my age there, actually my wife says I never act my age so guess it don't matter.

Jocko is in Germany for I believe 15 days he said. I suspect he'll be back shortly. Can't remember exactly when he left but I believe it was last Sunday. Couple weeks without threat of a horse head kind of makes me drop my guard. I best stay on my toes.

This is a perfect time to give my take on how threads that involve complaints or poor quality of Kahr products and others as well are addressed.

Johnh and Kahr by association have no problem with open honest constructive criticism. I believe the folks at Kahr do hear of the things brought up on this forum.

The key is open, honest and truthful complaints. A few of the recent complaints, well the chain of events and the repair process etc were stretched a little bit. One was a bald faced lie. I know this to be true. Still we let it go.
As has been brought up before, many times when there's a complaint they get a lot of visits and a lot of post. That's because we are trying to help the guy or gal get their gun running. Many times it's the shooter and not the gun. That's what we do here is help each other. We're trying to help the new owner work the kinks out. We're not here to defend kahr or make excuses, that's way above our pay grade. Kahr doesn't need our defense.

Occasionally we get a person with a burr under their saddle and nothing in the whole wide world is gonna make em feel better. Usually they don't last long. And that ladies and gentlemen is a good thing.

allglock, in case you visit, this last statement is not directly aimed at you but just a general observation.

BUT while these folks are here, they are giving Kahr and Kahrtalk a black eye. Again if it's a legitimate constructive criticism, maybe we deserve it. If Kahr goofed (and it happens to everyone) they will make it right.
In case you missed that last part, it was THEY WILL MAKE IT RIGHT!

I don't drink Kahr kool aid. I receive no compensation from Kahr or JohnH and what I get from my job my wife takes before I even see it but that's another story. BUT anyone who shouts from the roof top that Kahr doesn't care, that they put out a POS gun, or have poor customer service I cry Bullshit! (that's BS in case the censor gets me).

I guess I felt the need to climb the ladder to this tall soap box because I've really and truely had a belly full of complaining and whining. Some I'm sure is legit and I feel the pain for those folks, others I know is just mud slinging.

Incidently I have it on good authority that even the 380's coming off the line now are A ok. A member here had a chance to shoot a brand new one with no prep whatsover and it ran flawlessly, was accurate as could be and had no issues. I think they got it figured out. I have little use for anything 380 but when my marble sack allows I might just buy one myself.

Incidently in case I haven't said it lately, I love this place. We got a whole bunch of really good folks here.

this is a good thread with some great posts! I have really benefitted a lot from this forum in only a few days time - and ruffled some feathers I'm afraid with some criticisim of Kahr in respect to one of my guns - but I intend to stay around, and it looks like Kahr is doing what they can to address all of my concerns, with favorable results I'll add. I can't wait (and I will) to report on flawless performance of my PM45 to match that of my PM9 (which I've stated over and over again, has performed flawlessly).

The bottom line is that the griping, and even the criticism hasn't helped me nearly as much as some of the technical ideas and mods that I found in the Tech section. But the opportunity to air some of my disappointments with a group of individuals who also own Kahrs, if not the same model, has helped me see that my problems are not likely to be permanent problems, and that solutions do exist and Kahr is willing and able to put them into action.

These guns are the best carry semi-autos that I've ever found, period. My only remaining issue is the PM45 magazines which seem to have suffered fatigue cracks after about 350 rounds. Today Jay at Kahr emailed me that replacements will be sent out to me within 48 hours of Kahr's receipt of the defective mags. In the meantime, I have 3 1911 magazines that cycle rounds into the chamber just fine - so I'm able to carry the PM45. (the mag I'm using is a magazine from a Para-Carry C6.45 that I sold. It only sticks out a little more than the factory mag as it holds one more round.

Thanks Bawanna and others for your contributions to this forum.
