    Default I LOVE my LC9S!

    Good god, this gun is awesome! My wife bought it for me Thursday, took it shooting Friday, fired about 200 rounds and I've been carrying it every day. The trigger is by far the best I've tried on any concealed carry pistol. We did a drill with targets set up in front of you and to your left, my dad or brother in law would randomly yell out "threat left!" and we rapid fire into that target. They yelled it while I was reloading twice and I was able to get back on target and dump the 7 round magazine accurately into the target. I could barely hit anything with my dad's Kahr, let alone rapid fire and get all 7 on target. I can't say enough good things about this gun. The only possible negative for folks who are used to hitting the slide stop to reload, you can't do that with the LC9S. It's designed to slingshot when you reload. It's actually not even an option to use the slide stop other than to lock the slide back. I can even use a high thumb hold! If you're thinking about it, get it. This gun is great.

    Agreed with everything you said! Great trigger and soft shooter for the size.

    We have an LC380, basically the same gun and I agree, great shooting model.

    Had the LC9s Pro been out when I got my Kahr I would have had to add it to the mix. But at the time the LC9 was an abomination of "resonable gun safety 'tehcnology'" and was a non starter for me. I am very happy with the LCP I already had.

    Want to add some more fun to your practice. Get some snap caps and have someone else load your mags the with a random snap cap loaded. This way you don't know if and when the failure will happen.

    That saying I love my Kahr.

    I do that with my revolver. Mix random snap caps and live rounds in. Sometimes 38, sometimes 357. It seems to be helping with the flinch. Anyway, my dad has the Kahr PM9 and he likes it. My only real issue with it is that gap between the magazine base pad and frame pinches my finger every time I fire it.

    Took the LC9S out today with my wife and we fired another couple hundred rounds between it and her Walther PPQ. Both are outstanding. We're both really surprised how well the Ruger shoots for such a small gun.

    What distance where you shooting at?

    Also how are you liking PMSC?

    Those leftover 380s I have been hanging on to almost make me get an LC380 for them. Somehow it should be the other way around.

    It was probably 10 yards. PMSC is awesome! My wife and I have been there every week since we joined.

    The Lc9s is a winner. I love mine too. I have been shooting Underwood Extreme Defender 90 grain +P ammo. It has greater penetration with less kick improving accuracy even more.
