Springfield Praise KEL-TEC not so much

I need to go rent one from my local range and see, I guess.

Go ahead and pick it up. IF it doesn't function properly, Keltec's EXCELLENT CS will make it right.

Briggs6951 is simply carrying a grudge that he can't let go of. There are far more happy owners than those with problem PF-9s. Mine's been carried every day for over 2 Years and been flawless, but if there's any doubt, save your money and pass. If you have doubts going in, you'll never fully trust it due to the 'Horror Stories'. You'll probably always have that doubt in the back of your mind, waiting for 'that other shoe to drop'.

I need to go rent one from my local range and see, I guess.

This is a good prerequisite for any gun purchase. I won't buy a model I haven't first rented, or borrowed.

I do not EDC my PF9. It is my CCW of choice when clothing lacks concealment options. I've never had any issues while at the shooting range. My PF9 is a keeper, no regrets.

I've had no failures out of my PF9 in well over 500 rounds. The quality is not as high as the xd but, it's half the price and so smaller! Mine serves it's purpose well. I guess every gun has it's haters.

I've been a KTOG member for some time now and the mods are more than fair. You don't get banned for just "speaking the truth." I don't think this is the place to air your grievances toward another forum.

That said, my P-11 is as reliable as my XD9. 100% so far. All guns are pieces of machinery that will fail at some point, some after one round, some might take a million.

Sure... I'll even supply the threads where you really made an A$$ of yourself.
Amen I'm free of Kel-Tec - KTOG - Kel Tec Owners Group Forum
I miss my PF9 - KTOG - Kel Tec Owners Group Forum

If you hadn't turned into a Troll, you wouldn't have gotten yourself banned.

my previously owned XDsc 9mm has had 500 trouble free rounds by me, my brand new XD 4" service model 9mm has 200 trouble free, and... *GASP* my PF-9 has 250 trouble free rounds. I love the little thing!
