No. I didn’t start considering 9mm “serious” until Winchester introduced the first Black Talons in 1991.

Technically I guess they’re standard. They’re made by Hogue, and compared to the rubber wraparound they feel thinner; certainly less soft and my hands sweat less with them. They’re thin in the front...
So I read this I see an M9A1 Compact frame with a 92X Compact slide with G-style decocker, a Mec Gar 15-rd mag; maybe with a spurless hammer option (options of original; WC hammer). Probably options...
For the Beretta, that is not the 90-series. It does work with the PX4 or the APX series. However, the fact that Beretta has chosen to double down on the 90-series with the X-variants, and most likely...
It cannot be done like it’s done with Glocks, SIGs, etc. due to the slide design of the 92. The only way to mount a RDS is to punch out the rear sight and attach the RMR to a mount which utilizes...
I received my M9A3 back today with LTT Level 2 trigger job with the new OPTB. What was a good trigger pull is now a great trigger pull: butter smooth light but long DA pull with a very short reset...
This is the model I’ve been waiting for to compliment my APX Compact. Ideally it’s available with factory-available tritium suppressor-height sights, or if they F-this up like CZ by introducing a...

I’ve been using a NeoMag for a little over a year, usually in my left back pocket. One of my ECQC realizations was that changing mags in the middle of the fight was a death nail. Moreover,...
...and shoot every bit as good as a Glock or better.
In the meantime while you’re waiting try Muddy River Tactical, https://muddyrivertactical.com/product/beretta-apx-compact-iwb-kydex-holster/. I ordered mine with the soft loops, and replaced those...
I am now dumping my Kahr P9 for the same reasons. My Beretta APX Compact has the same grip length with more ammo and it fits my hand better to allow me to better control the recoil.
Agree that greater capacity slims are in higher demand, and this seems nothing more than a Nano with an APX-styled slide (which to some degree makes sense since the APX itself is derived from the...
I tried to love the P320.
I purchased a compact with medium grip module new in September 2016. Mechanically, it’s been flawless even before the “voluntary” upgrade. But there was something...
Concur.
OP mentions testing this out in ECQC; been there. What I found through the evos is that the space you create gives you fractions of a second for in-fight weapon access, or as Craig calls...
Recently sold my VP9, but not quite sure I understand the problem. Slide release remains part of the frame upon disassembling. Do you mean the slide will not release while disassembling? Try...
Mine arrived today. I got the model with fixed soft loops. It took a few tries to like it, but after playing with all three holes and moving it more center-line I finally found the “sweet spot.” ...
I’ve taken ECQC twice: First with a WC CQB Compact worn strong side, the second with a VP9 worn AIWB. The thumb safety wasn’t as much an impediment as the holster location and the longer grip on the...
Agree. I picked one up at the NRA show in April. Felt like holding a 2x4. Granted, the gent showing mentioned the model was an early prototype. But my P9 felt way better, and the only time it failed...
I went back and hit the rear of the grip...no dead striker/no dead trigger. I tried again, this time gripping the front of slide and whacking the rear of the grip...no dead striker/no dead trigger. ...
Mods,
I don't want to hijack the thread, but felt compelled to show a differing opinion.
Enel,
Granted I didn't use a mallet, but the top of a dresser. No dropped striker/no dead trigger. I...

Even Pat MacNamara recommends "sink more finger on the trigger." When using this method (finger tip on the trigger), the trigger finger is essentially a fulcrum where sinking the finger...
It's more than that; it's the attitude about application of deadly force. LEOs typically see deadly force as a last alternative while mil typically see it as the only alternative. Both are...
I handled one at the NRA Exhibit; completely agree. I was able to hold both a 320 carry and the X-carry simultaneously. SIG rep said the X-Carry grip removed material around the palm. Almost made it...
I just talked to HK rep at NRA Exhibit Hall. Short answer is yes, in 2018. He said that it's a matter of complying with US firearm import laws. A VP9 compact would require too many changes to be...
I agree. I recall going through the required training for a TX CHL a few years back. The standards aren't that tough, but the time standard caused some of my fellow attendees to shoot "minute of bad...
