I just picked up a new P380 Friday. Removed factory oil and re-lubricated and put about 220 rounds through it today.
Question: This is my first Kahr, and have never broken one down before yesterday... when I'm reassembling and reinserting the slide stop, is it normal to have to push pretty hard to send it the final +/- 1/8" into final assembled position? It finally "clicks" into place, but the way the manual reads, it should go in easily.
Anyway, just wondering. I've greased it, and it still has the same resistance.
While shooting today, I had quite a few FTFs. My 2nd round got hung up even. I think I had at least 10 FTFs total, but none in the last 70 or so rounds. It happened for three different kinds of ammo (all 95 gr.).
After reading many of the posts here, I'm almost inclined to send it in to get the ramp polished. But since the last 70 were fine, I'm not sure if I'm jumping the gun (pardon the pun).
Any input on the slide stop question and the FTFs would be most appreciated.
Glad I found this forum...lots of good info here.
