Bet you really don't like my KAHR CM9 with a loaded striker spring, and no safety at all! Probably thousands of law suits as you mentioned in your OP. Care to site two, or three?
The striker in your Kahr (or Glock or XD or any other polymer gun) is not at full cock over a loaded chamber It requires a long DA pull of the trigger to bring the striker back to be fully spring loaded before it releases. It's the same system that was used on the Austro-Hungarian Model 1907 Roth Steyr cavalry pistol.

Actually, I do like the Kahr pistols, BTW, or at least the all-steel ones.

Again, it's apples and oranges.

The Remington's hammer is at FULL cock over a loaded chamber. There's no long DA pull to fully compress the spring. To repeat: It's the same as a loaded, cocked 1911 with no thumb safety.

But, by all means: Get one if you like it.

I mean nobody ever sues a gun manufacturer, do they?
