Hello all, just joined the forum. I'll apologize in advance... I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to firearms. The p380 is my second hand gun. I have a USP 9mm compact as well.
Anyway, took my brand new Black on Black w/ Tritium Sites to the range the other day (Ser# 8***). I figured there wouldn't be any issues because the load ramp was polished to a mirror finish and the serial was in the 8's... Boy was I wrong.
Had a failure to feed on the very first round... took me about 2 minutes to get the first round in the chamber (buffalo).
BRONZE 380 AUTO 90GR FMJ 50RD (200 Rounds Fired)
Buffalo .380 +90 (50)
Fired 250 rounds total.
8 Failure to feeds
20+ Stove Piping
25+ Slide locked back before I was out of rounds...
0 Failure to Fire.
The sites are literally worthless. The gun is very inaccurate...if I try to use the sites. If I fire just instinctively without using the sites it's accurate. I was very frustrated because I'd rest the gun on the bench, aim, fire, and it was firing very low. This was extremely frustrating because I passed up a LCP to purchase this gun... for the sites alone.
Anyway, in a nutshell, I'm very disappointed. I never...ever had an issue with my USP. You put any kind of ammo in that gun and it will load, fire, and discharge the cartridge without issue.
I'm going to send it to Kahr and see if they can fix the issues I'm having. I'm not even remotely comfortable carrying this gun for concealed carry at the moment.
