Yep I'm in love

I appreciate all weapons but definitely a Glock guy! This will probably be my next purchase/carry weapon

Good gun and I'm a Glock guy too but I got an H&K VP9 SK for Christmas and love it.....shoots great and isn't too big like my Glock 17...before you get the 43 check out the SK....I was going to get either the 43 or the 19 and I'm glad I changed my mind

Admittedly not a Glock guy here. But what in the heck is up with that magazine design. Its like the wrong magazine or its not inserted all the way or something. It doesn't contour to the bottom of the gun at all. Looks like a afterthought.

I've looked at just about everything. I've carried multiple brands but always end up back with a Glock.

I don't think I've looked at the VP9 specifically so I'll check it out.

Glocks in general have the mag plate hanging out a bit. I agree I'm not a huge fan of that look but they never let me down and I love the availability of accessories (mainly night sights)

Totally understand. I feel the same love for my guns as well. I have been considering the Ruger LC9s Pro as a option for a carry but I just never really liked any of the small framed guns.

As you know a key to carrying is being comfortable with a weapon. I don't have big hands by any means but I def couldn't go any smaller. I think the smaller weapons have their spot but I couldn't as my main carry weapon. Maybe could see one as a boot gun or something

Specifically the SK; it comes with extra side panels and back straps to customize the grip and a "speed loader"

I have the LC9s Pro on my hip right now. I carry it nearly every day, so does Connie.
Only time it's not with me is when I'm carrying my FNS9 or 44 Mag.

Finally found one in stock and got my birthday present

Is that a stainless slide? My SR 45 has the stainless slide and I have a love hate relationship with the look. Right after I got it I wish I had went without the stainless but I flip flop on it so I guess 1/2 the time its one of my more liked guns. Haha

You gun looks nice congratulations.

Glock calls it a silver nPVD slide. So the coating isn't like a normal stainless it's more of a silver cerakote style (kinda matted)
