I am recently starting to consider selling my R9 to get an R9S
I just dont go with the logic some people use that you dont need sights on a gun this small as its not meant to be shot far enough to need sights....
So...

Why shouldnt I swap my R9 towards a R9S?
JYagoda:
Like Tracker, I have the R9s but, if I had selected the R9, I would keep it -- especially if it had not demonstrated any vices. For me, it was almost a coin toss as to whether I ordered the R9 or the R9s. Before my wife requisitioned it as her own, I had gotten used to my "sightless" Seecamp .32 and had developed the practice of sighting down the top of the barrel when firing it. Whenever one of my shooting buddies would ask why I would have a pistol without sights, I'd just smile and retort, "High speed, low drag."
Another reason to consider hanging on to your R9 is its rarity. I don't have a count on the number issued, but I believe that they are a pretty rare breed.
Good luck, whatever you decide to do.
