hello to all!!! Just bought a r9s. Great gun. I took me overnight to make the decison to buy it becuase i was going to be buying another gun that same day. Well i got both and am glad i did. took it to the range and everyone was giving the finger treatment. luckly the guys at the range have expensive taste as i do so that didn't give me that "a glock can do that better" treatment. well i go down range to shoot it for the first time and everyone is watching as a shoot my thousand dollar pocket pistol. Well first shot went off then nothing. started to get me worried, but i changed ammo and then it went off without a hitch. started looking at the ammo i used the first round and remembered that i had ment to throw that lot away because it had gotten wet. just wanted to let you all know that in my opinion (& we know what those are all about) this is a great gun and worth the money. what i mean is there are several guys at the range who have a lot of money in their 1911's as well as i, but when it comes to a pistol they are going carry everywhere they go cheapskate. I don't get it, but then i guess that's why i went with the best.

matthew, welcome to the forum. I hope you will return here often.
Congratulations on getting the new R9S. It is a joy to own and use. You will find plenty of useful information here as you begin using the new pistol.
Be safe and enjoy the R9S.

Matt, welcome to the forum. I also do not get it when folks buy high priced 1911 and won't spend the money for a quality pocket gun that could save their life.

Matt - big welcome to our fold :)
Delighted you have the pup and also have already enjoyed same. Indeed, if you haven't peeked yet - look thru the FAQ (link in my sig) in case any odd things there which might help or interest you.
I am in process of making another video, using TW's pics of Eric - so similar stuff as my other vids but with an ''Eric'' slant!
