I think you'll like it and find that it is. I researched a variety of makes and the Hogue Handall Jr. got nothing but great reviews. I like Pachmayer, and have one on my P-32, but the Pachmayer just doesn't fit well on the PF-9. Like many others they tend to move around when firing the PF-9. The Hogue Handall Jr. won't. They stay put. Myself, my son and my oldest grandson all have them now on our PF-9's which we carry daily, shoot often, and we are quite happy with them.
