    For what it's worth, this is also a major reason Kahr sometimes balks at paying return shipping. Quite often the receive the gun and it functions flawlessly for them. Nothing needed.
    Owner gets it back and they are all ticked off, nothing changed. It's operator error not the gun.
    Often times but not always of course.

    I've always felt they should send a label (they can ship much cheaper than the average person). If there's an issue that needs repaired, they pick up the tab. If it's operator error and nothing wrong the consumer picks up the tab.

    Course it would be best for consumer to pay up front and then get reimbursed if called for, otherwise they would get a lot of no payers.

      Fortunately my hands are on the smaller side so I feel I get a pretty good grip on it, but it is certainly small. I will sure up the grip and see.

      Again I have owned many .380's and this is the first one to give me last shot open issues. Problem is the other .380's didnt have a mag release button at all except the taurus TCP.

I guess I will have to try it out, for me it's not a deal breaker, I was just seeing if anyone thought the gun was defective or perhaps the WWB rounds arent strong enough to throw the slide all the way back. Maybe next range visit i'll get a video of the grip and shooting and you guys can judge..

        Thanks again for all the feedback!
        I'd try other ammo's, also. But, I agree that grip could be part of the problem. You see a lot more issues with the CW380 and the CM9, than with the CT380 and the CW9. They gotta be basically the same on the inside. You also don't see many problems with 7 round mag in the CW9.

        Speaking of ammo, I remember a post about using higher velocity ammo in the CW380, for break-in. With more energy, the gun is probably more forgiving.

          I dunno if limp wrist is the problem, but if so, its easy to fix.
          Try this sitting at home: using your gun hand, simply grip 2 fingers of your other hand. You'll be able to "lock" your wrist so it doesn't rock, without tightening on the fingers. Simple once you're aware, and doesn't involve strength. Its just a matter of making your wrist and forearm act as one solid "bone" so the wrist doesn't soften the recoil.
          Rest in peace Muggsy

            ^^Excellent advice. It took me a little time to figure out a "limp wrist" and a straight wrist are 2 different things. It made all the difference!

              I never broke it down like this! Sounds like some awesome advice man! Will start practicing this method!
              Thanks a million!
