[QUOTE="Sanjuro82, post: 1603882, member: 14058"] They are neat pocket pistols there's no denying that. The design is a good one and the craftsmanship is top notch. But in my opinion they are not worth the money. In fact, I feel they are quite over priced for what you are getting. I don't own one, but I have fired over 100 rounds through one and have also completely disassembled it. Things I liked: Trigger. Best trigger in the pocket pistol category. Long but very smooth. Break is crisp. The PM9 and DB9 are right behind it though. Fit and Finish is awesome Accurate Slim profile and comfortable in the pocket Cons: Definitely not 100% reliable (finicky with ammo) Not the lightest Pocket 9 out there Price.... Mag release does take getting used to Do not like the recoil spring assembly. Slow to install back in the gun. And you have to replace the springs every 200-300 rounds. Not a range toy (the PM9 or DB9 can be) Does not run well dirty. Which concern me as it is a pocket pistol. (lint, dirt, or what ever else is in your pockets) IMO the R9 is more of a novelty item than a dedicated carry handgun, although a very nice one. It is what it is. Knock 300 off the price tag and I would be a lot more forgiving to the design. [/QUOTE]
