Pocket Nines

bought a Sig P290 a couple months ago. I have about 300 rounds with complete reliability. My last trip to the range I put 50 rounds of mixed target and +P HP's through non-stop (2-second per shot rule at the range).

Surprising how easy this little pistol shoots! +P is a bit vigorous, but much easier than I thought they might be. There is almost no bite in the web and minimal torquing with +P. The trigger is long and smooth, and breaks cleanly (Don't worry if it seems stiff in the store--lots of dry-firing and a good cleaning and it smooths right out). After the 50-round session I went right into my DW-CCO .45 and my Caspian with no discomfort at all.

Also, the P290 is incredibly accurate! Standing at 15-yards I was able to keep everything in a palm-sized group (and I aint that good-a-shot).

For carry I use a simple Uncle Mikes sleeve IWB-appendix. Comfortable and drops right out of sight. The setup also drops into my coat pocket with ease.

For me the extra weight over the Kahr and Ruger is a non-issue. The Sig is built to shoot.

Keltec PF9 its reliable, fairly accurate ( I can shoot a 2" or so group at 15 yrds ) and price wise its a winner. Here in Louisiana its easy to stick it in a pocket holster in my shorts when its 105 and 80% humidity. Even if I carry my CBOB the Keltec is on me somewhere.
