    Noticed something about Kahr trigger

    So today I was doing some dry fire practice, and for the longest time could not pull the trigger without moving the gun to the right. I figured it was just my technique, and kept it. Wouldn't go away. I started wondering if there was something with the gun. I put the gun in my left hand, hand wrapped way around in an "H-grip", and the gun still moved right. Then I set the gun down on a table, and pushed the trigger straight back. It seems like at the exact moment the striker is released, the action of the striker slamming forward jerks the gun ever so slightly to the right. Is the striker or trigger or some other part purposely offset in the gun?

    So apparently I'm not the only one who noticed this. I read on another blog the shooter experienced the same thing. Does anyone know if this negatively impacts accuracy?

      The barrel lug is offset to the left to make room for the trigger bar on the right.
      Perhaps this has something to do with it.
      I don't own a Kahr so I can't really comment.
      Striker-fired designs often have heavier "action" impact than hammer-fired.
      This is because the energy needed to ignite a primer has to come from the single striker spring, not a combination of hammer spring and hammer momentum.
