Another PF9 review
« on: December 31, 2010, 05:38:39 AM »
Got a PF9 black parkerized for Christmas  ;D. Took it to deer lease Monday and gave it a try. Had 50rds 115gr fmj PMC, 50 115gr fmj rem, 50 124gr fmj fed AE and 50 115gr hp win sxz. Shot all 200rds with no failures. Trigger was better than most other small pocket pistols these days after twenty or so rds groups started getting much better (mostly me getting use to gun) was getting mostly 4" groups at 10yds with 7shots.  On last box (they all shot well and to same poi) moved back to 25yds and shot a 7shot 6" group and for me with such a light gun and with the triggers that come on these type guns I was very happy. Sights were much better than on many other guns of this type...and centered for my shooting perfectly right/left but I had to half moon the front dot deep in rear notch to be dead on at 25yds. Finish was average, ejection was strong and somewhat erratic in direction (most back right but some straight up), clip works well and just had the straight bottom plate fit my hand very well, clip release worked well. Gun was very easy to disassemble and clean. Two slight negatives....gun has molding groves on back of grip that will eat up palm quickly if shooting a lot of rds. I sanded them off! The gun will wear a blister on thumb knuckle joint if shot a lot of rds, started noticing around 75rds or so. But again this gun is not made to target shoot, emptying a clip load at a bad guy these are non issues. Overall loved the gun, no failures, liked all ammo, accurate, priced very well for what you get, very light and concealable! For what its designed for I give it an A and thumbs up!

Glad you like your's. I have both a PF-9 and a P-32. It's not hard to become a Kel Tec fan. Kel Tec has an outstanding service department too.  For the money, the PF-9 is an outstanding value. It would still be so at a much higher price too. I've read that it is fast becoming the most popular 9mm for conceal carry. Not hard to figure out why. I too like the sights. I can actually see them well even without my glasses on. The PF-9 is no range gun. It is all buisness and that's one of the things I love about it. I took mine to the range yesterday and every person there wanted to look at it. Quite a few wanted one after shooting mine. I hear that they are becoming so popular that many are having trouble even finding one. For conceal carry a PF-9 is mighty hard to beat.  :)
