| New to me LC9
Well Ive been thinking about buying an LC9 for about a year now and finally did. Its a used one and the previous owner said he didnt have any problems with it but he said he didnt shoot much with it. So we will see what happens with it in time. I gotta wait 10 days to pick it up here in Ca.

A friend of mine picked up a used one with 3 mags for 259.00, that was a steal. Shoots great. It was a consignment at his LGS.

Makes you think ,HUH | It's because most people don't want to take a little time and learn the trigger control involved in shooting a DAO firearm. I did, and it made me a much improved overall shooter. But that's just me.

Mine has been great. Did you get it yet? Did you get it yet? Sorry, I'll quit being childish. Did you get it yet?

Picked it up today, I dont find the trigger all that bad. Hopefully Ill be shooting it by the end of the week. As soon I know its functioning Im going to be taking out the mag disconnect feature. The funny thing is California, where Im at, is pretty much the reason that "feature" is on the gun.

Mine has been perfect though I got roasted for saying I like the trigger and don't understand why everyone complains about it. I haven't taken my magazine release out yet as the videos I've seen make it look a little more involved than I am comfortable with. Good luck with your new gun.

It made me concentrate so much that it became second nature and it has transferred throughout all my pistols and the way I shoot.

Congratulations on your new to you LC9. Mine is a great shooter and I also got it used back in August.
