My R9 went BANG!....
« on: April 06, 2009, 11:02:22 PM »
with EVERY pull of the trigger.  Went to the range yesterday. Shot a bunch of different ammo. From Wincherster White to Speer Gold Dot.  No FTF, no FTE, just bang- every time.  I use it as my primary carry gun (carry it in a backpack, IWB holster, OWB holster and ankle holster).  I hadn't cleaned it in several months (to make my test more realistic).  I did clean it after my trip to the range. Carry with confidence!

Jim:

Welcome to the campfire, and thank you for the fine range report. Your experience with the R9 mirrors my own -- it just goes "bang" every time I want it to do so.
