New member here. When I first saw the R9, it had to be late last year, at a local gun show. They had a company table, and were taking orders, but there were no guns for sale. The pieces on display looked really nice, but I didn't want to pay the money for one until they got out in the field and I could see some feedback. At any rate, fast forward a year, and the reviews seem to be great. Then I see a used, but LNIB R9 with the laser pocket slipper for $800. It came with all the docs and accessories, so I picked it up. I was a little nervous as I had heard they could be finicky. I took it home, took the laser off, cleaned and lubed it, and then took it to the range. I fired 30 rounds of WWB 115 gr ball and 20 rounds of 115gr Speer GD. I found that if I shot the gun "high thumb" like my 1911, if I touched the slide with my weak thumb at all, the piece would jam. If I shot the gun one handed, or two handed with a conscious effort not to touch the slide, the gun was 100%. It fired all 20 Gold Dots without issue. Needless to say, I'm impressed with the gun, and it'll almost certainly replace my Seecamp .32 as my BUG. Nice pistol!
