Let us know how that puppy shoots as I was looking at one myself. Standing by.

It was harsh! Surely not a range gun. After 50 rounds, I quit. It's not as harsh as the P3AT though. The trigger is long but smooth. The pistol operated without a hitch.

Some shots felt fine while some seemed to kick more. I was shooting CCI Blazer Aluminum 115 gr 9mm and in my experience, this ammo is pretty consistent. So I don't think it was the ammo. It was probably the way I was holding the pistol. Being a single stack, it's rather narrow. I guess I have to learn how to grip this pistol, which appears different from the way I grip my XDs. For some odd reason, it seemed easier to handle one handed. So maybe it was in the way I was gripping it.

Hey Prop,
Are you still shooting that PF-9?
The Hogue Handall Jr slip-on rubber sleeve makes a world of difference!
I shot 100rnds with the sleeve - took it off to see what it was like without it and could only get through 2 mags before my web was pink and stinging. I put the Handall back on and shot another 100rnds comfortably.
Worth trying for $10!!

What's the part # for this sleeve? I haven't seen a sleeve for the pf-9 on their site.

I'm feeling your pain. I just got back from the range after 150 rounds through my new pf-9. My trigger finger is killing me!

Nice gun! Buds is always out of stock on them so they must be a good lil gun

I really like my PF9. Wish my holster looked that good!

I've gone through 200 rounds without a sleeve and the recoil doesn't bother me anymore. xDDD Though the web of my hand comes away bruised every time, after a couple rounds my hand goes numb and I can shoot without a problem...When it doesn't jam xDDD

I love mine, but it is not fun to shoot. I put a Pachmyr Tactical grip sleeve on mine. It's thinner than the Hogue. I used the one for the G23 and trimmed it to fit.
