As promised Range Report.
« on: January 22, 2011, 07:00:07 PM »
So, I took Blackie, my new R9 Stealth to the range today.
Bought 3 boxes of 115 gr. Gold dots, popped out 7 so I'd have some to carry and headed to the range. Shot a total of 53 without so much as a hiccup. Fed and ejected flawessly and the kick was a lot less than I had expected. I took her apart and gave the rails a couple drops of clp before I went just to make sure if there was an issue , I could rule out lack of lube.
As an added bonus I was able to hit the large size body targets just about any where I aimed at the 21' mark.
Needless to say I am very happy with my new pup and plan to make her my daily carry gun .
P.S.
Thanks for all the welcomes !!
W.B.  ;)

Another plan comes together! Thanks for posting the good range report. And that was a good move to field strip and lube the piece before putting it through its paces for the first time. All R9s are lubricated and ready to go when they leave the factory, but I always assume that someone in the distribution chain may have been unable to keep their "grubby paws" off of a gun I have ordered.
