buildit Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 So I've been continuing to improve my range and today I had some time to try my new CCW weapon.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADqgNoFA8bwI don't care what they say about the LC9, I am liking it and it is proving to be an accurate gun for me.

speedytriple Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I like lc9 a lot. Their good little guns for the money. Nice work on the backstop and range so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idodishez Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 LC9 any better than the LCP? Everytime I take the LCP out to shoot I get frustrated. Jambs or FTF prob 40% of the time. Don't feel safe w it as my CCW, but it's all I can carry (ankle holster) at work as I can't risk printing w my others. I've taken my dad and GF both out shooting several times. Most recent trip had 5 or 6 guns to play with. Both of them have made comments on "not liking" the LCP. This was w no input from me. I like its size for CCW, but thats outweighed by the other factors. Nobama 2012 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buildit Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I have no experience with the LCP to compare with. But I can say that the bad press on the LC9 seems overdone. Well, that or I got a gun built on wednesday. No jams or other issues so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I have around 1500 rounds through my lc9. When i first got it the front sight came loose ruger fixed it. They put a roll pin in it. The newer ones have the pin in them now. Other then the front sight i have had no other problems with it. After the first hundred rounds has not had another jam on any ammo i feed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sister just bought one for herself too and she did an entire 12 hour one day class with no malfunctions also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you pull the slide back, then let it go forward on its own it won't go the whole way forward. Have to "help it"Nobama 2012 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawi kid Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 What kind of ammo you running? Sounds kinda like your brass is swelled? How old is the ammo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I've not once had that problem with any other guns I've owned. Hell I probably put 100 rounds through my friends LCP before I bought mine and it didn't happen at all. I just got frustrated and said screw it since I'd rather get another 9mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A mix of others for target, can't remember without looking. All brand new. No remans for this. Only use remans in .40 and 9Leave my swelled brass out of this.

buildit Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 My first thought is a compressed action spring. Someone on another forum said to watch for brass filings which could increase friction along the action slide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 .380 sucks anyways, just go get the lc9. Did you try polishing the feed ramp on it? I did this to the TCP I use to have and it cycled flawlessly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buildit Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Let me shoot you with a 380 since it sucks so bad Everyone knows only a .45 will hurt you. All the rest just bounce off or harmlessly pass thru without damage. If you missed the end of the video I showed what one of the 9mm slugs looked like after hitting the plate. I thought that was cool for a fmj! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
