[PF9GY]
Date Added: Saturday 18 February, 2012
I love the size and feel of this gun especially with the 8-round mag extension. It is louder than my 5" .45 Para and recoil is impressive. It is accurate (Tack-driver given its tiny size) and easy to operate.
UNFORTUNATELY, I could not get it to reliably feed (FTE) with any ammo from day one. I ran a few hundred rounds through it before I contacted the factory. They sent me a new extractor that arrived promptly. I replaced the new extractor, spring and screw without any significant difference in reliability.
I recontacted the factory, sent it in and It was returned 6 weeks later with a new slide with all internals and took it to the range and restarted the break-in period and thought it had been repaired, BUT after about 300 rounds it started failing to eject again.
In all fairness, my brother has carried a PF-9 and has had no reliability issues. When I researched this gun for purchase, it sounded like if you get a good one you got one, otherwise sell it and buy another.
That is what I am doing, and the only reason I can do so in good conscience is the lifetime factory warranty. I am replacing my PF-9 with another Para... this time it will be the Para Ord .45 ACP 6 + 1.
