Meh. That's why God invented the belt. :lol:

They are also a bit onerous to field strip.

You can get the latest @ http://WWW.ktog.org
Some report mag drops but that could be a "grip" issue How did your range session go ?


Ok so who has these here? Is anyone on here a Kel-tec dealer?


went really well, i usually put 25-50 thru in a session with the pf9, but this last trip, it was 100... no problem, waaay less snappy.

thunderjohn handles keltec. i'm sure he can get the baseplates.. i just ordered mine from keltec directly. they came in 2 days.

No experience with it, but give Dave a call at DKMags.com

No guarantee on the price, but I did a search. Looks like the LC9 is on sale for $330 through 11/30/11, and the laser model is $390 or so.

Again, call Dave.
I like my freedom. It came at a high price to many before me, and I will honor them by keeping said freedom intact.

Not to change the subject, but I just picked up a Beretta Nano. I nixed the LC9 because I didn't like the trigger. Anyways, the Nano's dimensions are similar to the LC9. You should check one out.

I've had an LC9 for a few months now, and I like it a lot. The finger extension mag makes it very comfortable to hold and shoot. The trigger is kinda heavy, but very smooth all the way through the pull. It also has a manual safety, which I like (though I know most people don't). I got mine from MNBlackjack here on the board. I'm sure he can get you squared away (and he's a heck of a nice guy as well). Last I checked, his advertised price was $335.

I got one this summer and it is my everyday carry gun. I feel like I can control it better than my LCP which is just a bit too small in my hands. I have a really nice Galco IWB holster for it that I got at Cabelas too. Simple gun, but I really like it.

Thanks for the props Retrograde. I always seem to have at least one LC9 in stock too. I just wish my favorite distributor would carry Ruger so I could get even better pricing on them.
