At the last 1500, I was able to make a trade of my LNIB Ruger LCP + Wolff Springs + 3 Mags + ammo for a new DB9. I’ve decided I wanted to move up to the 9mm for the pocket gun from the 380 in order to consolidate my inventory some. The LCP has been an awesome handgun for me and really increased the times I carry, but I couldn't afford to have both so I decided to make the trade. Here’s a picture of the DB9 in the original box:
Some have called the Diamondback pistols “baby Glocks” and from first inspection, there are a lot of similarities, at least in appearance. I hope I can say that at least to some degree for the performance. Until then the jury's still out.
Here are the spec’s:
- Capacity: 6+1 Rounds
- Weight: 11 Ounces
- Length: 5.60”
- Height: 4.00” with mag
- Width: 0.80”
- Barrel Length: 3.00”
- Firing Mechanism: Striker Fire
- Trigger Pull: DAO 5 lbs
I decided to take some pictures with my G27 just for reference.
One thing you’ll notice is that the sights on the DB9 are much better than many of the small pocket guns on the market, for sure better than the LCP. They can also be changed out for Trijicon sights (and maybe others).
I’m very pleased with the size and weight so far of the pistol. It is also only about 0.5 inch longer in length than the LCP and actually a bit thinner.
I plan to take it to the range this weekend and break it in, and I’ll post some pictures and a report. I know Que did one previously, and I plan to see how mine compares.
