    Newest Toy

    Well, I got it over the weekend and just now had a chance to shoot it today. My only comparison was the P11 I used to have and sold, because I just couldn't get used to the trigger. Well, let's just say they are night and day. The PF9 was a pleasure to shoot. Recoil was very manageable, almost like shooting a larger framed heavier gun and the trigger, although still long, was very consistent and the break was crisp. The P11 used to hurt my hand after a about 2 mags. The PF9 I ran 250 rnds through with no discomfort at all. My only problem was having to stop to load mags. It was a joy to shoot. Now to the range part. It took a minute to get used to the trigger (My main gun is an XD9 service with a custom trigger job! Very nice!), but once I got over the hump, I was able to keep my shot placement at about 4 in @ 15 yrds! I had the occasional flyer on first shots, but that was it. Follow ups were very fast considering the guns size and the sights were very manageable. I must also note that I did not have a single FTF, or FTE using CCI Blazer 115g FMJ, Sellier & Belliot 115g FMJ, or my PF9 carry ammo Federal HST 124g! All in all I am very pleased I traded a Hi-Power for this little gem. I was concerned after my P11 experience (i like them a lot, just couldn't get me to work with the gun) how the PF9 would fair. It more than met my expectations and now will take on a lot of daily carry duty, along side my XD9. Now all i have to do is send it to Mr. Fusilier for the two tone look!

    45 GAP

    I think one article I read said it best, "it's an answer to a question nobody asked." I personally think it's dead.

    Which AK?

    I've got a Saiga that Red Stick is converting at the moment. A true Russian AK for 500? Can't beat that deal.
  4. Again a email derived name using my first and last name initials (NS) and a version of my name nate (Nathan) followed by 02 because nsnate was already taken. Every time I switch services or get a new user name I use it cause i can't remember anything.

    Kel-tec PF-9

    The jamming was from limp wristing the lightweight hi power gun. According to Kel-Tec, thats why they quit making them. People were writing bad reviews due to their shooting habits and not the guns. They were getting perfectly fine guns in for repair that had nothing wrong with them. By the way there is a way to adjust the trigger pull and it makes these little guns great deals. Just don't go too light or they will fire on their own!
  6. Having grown up in Memphis (14yrs.) I know what you mean. Unfortunately, there seems to be some truth to the "armpit of the south" nickname. That being said, the rest of Tennessee more than makes up for that corner of our wonderful state. Welcome!

    GUN THEFT, NASHVILLE

    I just heard about this shop recently. I know the area, but is it any good? Too bad about the robbery.
  9. They like to tell you they are the oldest Gun Shop in town. That's about all I can say for them. Prices are high and the range is a in a dungeon. I do shoot there cause it is close, but i am willing to drive to G&L and Joelton first. I will have to say the guy with the hook is a very nice and a helpful guy. The rest just smoke in you face and give you that "What are you doing here!?" look. I won't be back to the range unless it is just for convenience sake. I you haven't been there don't. If you have, your looking for another one.
  10. It seems that there were idealized answers and practical answers for liberal and conservative views to each question. Question, did you guys vote ideal or practical? I think I voted ideal, even though I knew the practical was the realistic answer that I would have probably voted for if it had been on a ballot.
  11. On Non-Fiscal Issues, you rank as a Strong Conservative (93). On Fiscal Issues, you rank as a Strong Conservative (87).

  13. I was reading about these guys on another forum about there Melonite CPQ refinishing. Did you happen to get any info on that while you waited a round a ridiculous amount of time? Do they seem reputable smiths or just know it all jerks?
  14. Some of you I recognize from XDTalk.com! Thought I'd meet some local shooter's. I'm in Nashville and shoot mostly at Joelton and Guns & Leather. A little drive, but ohhhhh sooooo much better than the dungeon at Gun City! Although I'm in Nashville now, I grew up in SE Shelby CO (Memphis/Germantown/Olive Branch areas) and left briefly for Arkansas State University in Jonesboro, AR! Hello all!
