I bought the ATI CS-9 last week. Paid $289. The low price had me sceptical about the performance and quality but after shooting 100 rounds I have to say I'm impressed. The action is smooth and solid, with a comfortable grip and is surprisingly accurate. I was consistently hitting a paper plate at 100 yds (much better than other handguns I own). The frame and mechanism is all metal which drew me to it over the lower end Ruger and S&W which are plastic. All in all, A great gun, especially for the price.
I would definitely buy another one. Maybe I'll go get the .45...

Their website is American Tactical Imports and these guns are made in Turkey and are the issued handguns of the Turkish military. I have been able to find more information, and these look to be a nice gun at a very nice price. Most handguns retail for $400, but can be found for less.
Do you really mean yards?
Yes I really mean yards... I bought my boys each a 17 hmr rifle. While out sighting in the scopes (at 100 yards), I decided to see if could even hit the target (paper plate). Surprisingly, I was able to hit it 10 or 12 times in 16 shots. we set up some pop cans in the snow and I was picking them off too..
I was wondering if the ATI CS9 was ammo picky?
I am considering a ATI from cal ranch as well they seem to be on clearance and they are going for screaming deals.
Just got back from a gun show. The Sig P226 magazines fit this gun and the HP 9. Got mine for $22 each. Much better than the $40 they want at Gunztuff.com
ive been looking around for decent 9mm handguns and found this one. the reviews i came across make this gun sound like a pretty good deal. except for the extra mag deal. but the real reason why i posted this is the Krusty the Clown quote, best quote in the world."Guns aren't toys! They're for family protection, hunting dangerous or delicious animals,
and keeping the King of England out of your face!"
