    I have been wanting a compact 9mm for a while now. I bought the last one from Acme Sports for $265 plus tax. I'm hoping to get it to the range this weekend.

    Congrats on the new gun. My oldest son has a PF9 and loves it. The recoil is not as bad as some make it out to be. It probably won't be your favorite gun to put a hundred rounds through on a lazy afternoon at the range, but it will be fun to shoot.

    I defiantly do not see it as a fun gun. I'll only shoot it enough to stay profecient. It will be nice though, not having to pack around a full size pistol all of the time.

    I always like pistols in that color....guess they just look like all business. Deb and I are hoping to get to Atterbury this Sun., if the weather holds. Might we see you shooting that thing in the pistol lanes?

    I think you made a very wise choice.......I have a Kel-Tec p3at and it has been great......my main gun is a G19 so I think a PF9 might be a better choice. Let us know how it works at the range.

    That's when I plan on going, if like you said, the weather holds. I'll probably also take my FNP9 and maybe my Buckmark.

    Congrats on the PF-9. They are great guns, and you got yours at a steal of a price.

    My PF9 isn't that much fun to shoot. But it is a very good CCW. And that's why I bought it. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I have mine. :)

    I had a P11 and wish I wouldn't have traded it away. May pick up another one as well - this 22 conversion sounds like an interesting opportunity.

    Why is that a steal?

    Seriously, I'm asking because I want one and Buds had the OD green one with a blue slide at $232. CDNN has the billfold brown model at $219.

    Was this one a Parkerized slide?

    I'm trying to figure out what a good price is to buy one local? Or at the show?

    Thanks,

    I was quoted at 220 by a local ffl and that was out the door cash price.
