Could I ask why you dropped the LC9?

Well, it never gave me any trouble but I figured it would down the road. I have read soooo many complaints about these over at the Ruger forum and elsewhere that I simply lost confidence in it.

Yup, I drank the internet kool-aid and was pizened. There have been such an amazing number of compaints about these that in the back of my mind I couldn't shake the thought that somehow, something, sometime, was going to go wrong. And when the wife expressed interest in carrying it, those thoughts just kept knawing away at me relentlessly.

Since she has a perfect Smith 432 (hammerless six shot J-frame in .32 Magnum) that she handles remarkably well, I figured it was better to have her carry that than a question mark. I myself still need/want a lighter weapon than my Glocks, hence the search for a CW-9 or a 642 (first choice actually).

Plus, lets face it, the wind was blowing and I needed a new gun.

I blame Rob......
