cessnapilot89 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Are the magazines that Numrich sells for the Kahr M1 clones worth purchasing? Im currently trying to find a few magazines to go with the recently acquired M1 and the price seemed attractive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

95mustang Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 File and patience The catch ends up pretty small after you file off a .100 thouThat's the difference in the height of receivers between full and semi guns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some modified but they are not very reliable. I'm trying to figure what is wrong with them. The ones I'm having problems with are all Seymour mags. The bolt is pinching on the case halfway up instead of feeding them into the chamber. I'm thinking the mag is hanging too low or the mag lips are bent keeping the cartridge from riding high enough for the bolt, or something is wrong so that the cartridge is not being followed up by the bolt into the chamber. I'm going to take measurements and compare the working mags to the problem mags to see if that will help clear up the problem. Do the new Kahr mags work in the old W-H guns, 15XXX serial number range? Thanks for any help. OK, it looks now like the feed lips were bent down a little somehow keeping the cartridge from going up high enough. I'm not sure how that happened, but it seems to feed OK now using dummy rounds for testing.
