[QUOTE="Mr.Glock, post: 2753715, member: 32877"] More billet parts. You ever get a chance to take the two apart do so. P models are more refined in the mfg, for lack of a better word. Tolerance's seem to be a lot tighter. And accuracy is better through the match grade polygonal barrel. I am not meaning the PW's are not good, the early models had tons of issues, as told to me by a Khar employee around the end of 2013 they made some changes in production in the CW models. I bought a early model that they took back and sent back a completely new pistol and kept the one I sent to them. I had stripped it completely down, buffed to a mirror finish every internal part trying to get it cycle ammo on a dependable basis, to no avail. Same technician that did all the correspondence with me had a engineer call me and ask me several questions about the internals and how I got them so refined and polished, he went on to say that the inside of every Khar should look like it, but it would cost so much in labor to do so, he went on to tell me that the feedramp angles and the loose tolerances in the PW's and more specifically the older ones was allowing the firing pin to not retract and would hang up on the lip of the shells causing sooooooooooooo many failure to feeds it was deplorable. Anyways, he agreed to send me a new later model CW380, and I will say it functioned very well. But I had lost all fait in it. Went back to my Ruger LCP for my pocket pistol. Jump ahead a few months and the son in law bought the P model 380, ran flawlessly, anything he put in it, even the flat nose ammo. I kept looking for a used one to pop up, and have been looking for a few months. Well the son in law wanted a new Glock 43 so bad, that I was able to swap him a new Glock 19 Gen4, that he had a co worker that wanted, to get the money to order himself a new 43. As I stated above, we have at minimum of 1k rounds through it together and it runs awesome. As well as I stated above he has a later model PW380 that is running smooth as well. [/QUOTE]
