Ruger LC9

[ex-LT]

I'm in search of a good holster for it, as it's still so new there aren't many options out there. I have a Bianchi IWB that works for my Bersa as well as my Kahr and Walther PPK/S, but the LC9 has an odd trigger guard so it doesn't won't fit the Bianchi quite right. Going to head out to the Frontiersman and see what they have available. If anyone has one of these, I would appreciate some suggestions for holsters. I'll also post back with whatever I come up with. It's actually just small and light enough I can just toss it in my pocket for now. Can't wait to get to the range and give it a try!

I didn't see it listed on his website, but I'm willing to bet he can make a holster for it.

Looks like he has some great stuff! I would imagine the LC9 is on the list and it's just a matter of time. A generic "Uncle Mike's" is what I picked up for now. Once some nice custom made leather models are out I'll get something decent. Thanks for the link.

Haven't been to the range yet, but just handling it and checking it out for the day, I imagine they are going to sell a ton of these things. At a price point of mid-$300 range, it's hard to beat, assuming the reviews are good once the masses really start getting their hands on these and run a few hundred rounds through 'em.

The thing to keep in mind... Erik (srigs) is local, and he's a member on the board.

All the more reason to buy from him. Not to mention it looks like some really incredible work he does. Thanks for the heads up - I'm new to the forum.

Boberg Arms XR9 Shorty

A buddy of mine is planning on picking one up, defiantly reminds me a little bit of the R9 and the Micro Eagle. The maker is claiming its got allot less recoil then others as well as better terminal performance than competitors due to the slightly longer barrel. Kind of cool the guy is doing this from White Bear Lake MN, I’m excited to try one out someday, maybe pass the LCP down to the wife.


If anyone knows anything more about this pistol please post (only saw a few mentions on here awhile back), maybe this guy is a local joke and I’m out of the loop, at any rate it looks cool and is priced well

Actually, I ran across this during my search for a compact 9. If you do some Google searching, you will find more info on it. From what I remember, it is a pretty radical design that left people either concerned, intrigued, or both.

It's also apparently been in production for quite a LONG time, so unless there is some firm release date, i wouldn't hold my breath.

Remember, this is just from my memory of doing a ton or research over the last couple months before deciding on the LC9, so things may have changed or I may even be way off. Google is your friend!

Is anyone aware of a dealer with the LC9 in stock? I know of one but they will not be selling them until the middle of March.

Buds had them -- http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/prod ... s_id=73923

I haven't seen them locally yet

[mrShinola]

Cabelas has them for 10 dollars more than Buds.

I think it's cool, but I'll have to really disagree when you say it's "priced well"... $850 is quite a bit of cash for a pocket 9mm unless you're comparing it to a rohrbaugh/kimber/karhs. Has your friend got it yet?

I have a LC9 form coming in a few days.

[Magnum Mikie]

I have an LCP and don't mind DAO with the .380 but I'm not sure how I would like it in the larger calibers. I gotta admit........the .380 LCP is a handful with DAO.

What are you guys seeing the LC9 priced at in your area? I paid $399 for mine at Gander Mountain.
