Is this FiveSeven Wear Normal
I have two FiveSevens. Here is a photo of a wear area on the slide release area. This gun maybe has 1000 rounds through it and generally is shot with a Jarvis barrel. My other gun shows little wear in this area but is shot less. Also my Glock 23 shows no signs of wear on the slide, is this wear comm...

Re: What do you guys think of Kahrs?
I have the Kahr MK9 elite stainless steel. I have put about 500 rounds through it with no problem (I bought it used but like new wear wise). A very nice gun but a little pricey if you buy new. I like the feel and it comes with the extended mag for a little more grip. Heavy enough to hurt someone if ...

Re: Convince me to drop the $$$ for a FsN
I have a Glock 23 that is a nice size for a carry and very nice to shoot. Even my 15 year old son can handle the G23. But the FiveSeven is awful fun to shoot, especially with Elite Ammo. If you have the money the Kahrs are also nice and compact. The Polymers are very light.
