Just bought the kel-tec pf-9

[duane1]

Everybody I heard from liked the kel-tec pf-9 so I just bought one today at trop gun shop in elizabethtown, I can't wait to shoot it. It cost $299.00 new. I got 147 grain hollow points to start with. The article in combat hanguns said the heavier bullet gives better control.

[P-11 shooter]

I heard different things. My thought was heavier=better, however I read from a very respected defensive handgun instrustor who's name I can't think how to spell right now, that the 147 grains are underpowered for a defensive round and can cause guns to jam. I have shot them through my p-11 just fine with good accuracy. I now carry 135 grain hydar-shocks because.......well that's what the store had at the time, and they shoot very well. I have juststuck with them. 10 diferent people will give you 10 different oppinions on bullet weight and design. An everyone on the internet is an expert.(sarcasm)


The pf-9 really impressed me. I really wish they were out when I bought my p-11 as I would have probably gone for the single stack.

Good buy. Let us know how she shoots.

subscribed, awaiting your review. Having carried a glock 26 in the past, I've been looking at these as a more viable and light weight carry piece. I'm definitely considering one.

Keep us posted.

mine has been reliable so far, prob only put 300 through it though, that sucka is like catching a baseball with no glove!

did you get to try it out at the last group shoot?

If not, and you still want to check it out i will bring it to the next one.

I have been thinking about buying one. I also have a 26 and it seems a bit wide at times.

I've no personal experience, but have seen numerous posts touting bullets in the 124gr range for p-11s and pf-9s. Be sure to post your findings!

Did it come with an extra magazine?

I just got one as well (well, like 3 weeks ago). Mine was $279+tax, I carried it once so far in the front pocket without even noticing it at all.
