Maybe take a look at the Kel-Tec P-11 9mm 12+1. The size isn't too different than the PF9 but it holds several more shots.
No harm, no foul on not liking revolvers. Some people love 'em, some don't. It sounds like you've done a fair amount of homework. I'm partial to a .45 ACP when deep concealment isn't required but dislike .40 on a compact while finding .357 fun on a heavy frame, but prefer 9mm on a lighter one.GFLinTX said:Also, 45_fan, I'm not a big fan of revolvers. I tried one out at Shooter's of Columbus (snubnose, can't remember what kind) and the sharp recoil just made it no fun to shoot. I could do it; it just wasn't as enjoyable as it should be.
And yeah, I know this is about having a PDW, but if I can't have a good time punching holes in targets at the range, what good is that? So for me personally, just not a revolver kind of guy.
i had a P11 and it was nice but the trigger is so much better on the pf9...GAGunOwner said:Maybe take a look at the Kel-Tec P-11 9mm 12+1. The size isn't too different than the PF9 but it holds several more shots.
At one time, Beretta also made a Mini-Cougar, the only difference was length of grip and shorter magazine. Made a big difference in concealing the butt (and who does not like a well shaped butt :cantsay. They can still be found if you look around.Xiclotl said:The Dec/Jan issue of Guns & Ammo: Handguns examined the Beresa Thunder 9 UC, Kel-Tec PF09, Stoeger Couger and Taurus PT709 in an article titled "Bargain 9mm Shootout". Gave very good marks to the Cougar & Taurus. The Kel-Tec did't fare so well, but for $333 it is about 30% cheaper. The Cougar holds 15+1.
I paid $247.17 for my PF9, delivered. If a Cougar holds 16 rounds, it's apples-to-oranges in comparison, size and all. Maybe they were only considering "bargain" in the review, without respect to size and concealability.Tazisland said:At one time, Beretta also made a Mini-Cougar, the only difference was length of grip and shorter magazine.

+1 on the M&P9c, but I also like the Sig P238, although a less effective round than the 9 Parabellum.
The PF9 is more snappy when fired.rmodel65 said:i had a P11 and it was nice but the trigger is so much better on the pf9...GAGunOwner said:Maybe take a look at the Kel-Tec P-11 9mm 12+1. The size isn't too different than the PF9 but it holds several more shots.
