Thanks Nick, its one of the best pistols I've ever owned. Luv the thing
As for the DB9, I got close to 200 rounds through it tonight 115g UMC, AE, Blazer Brass and 125g Oracle loads.In the first 100 or so rounds there was a couple of "stove pipe" mis-feeds across all the types. The later 100 settled right down with no problems. The gun is small and very tight(it has a non-captive, dual-spring, all steel recoil assembly), so it was very sensitive to limp-wristing. It did start breaking in after 100 rounds but the little gun gave me a workout. Anyway, little guns are always iffy with me as to accuracy but this one is fine. After getting used to it, I was easily keeping all rounds in 3" at 7-10yards. This DB9 was particularly accurate with the 125g Oracle cast loads(thanks JohnFH
). The last 40 rounds I let rip, firing and loading as fast as I could...the gun didn't miss a beat and as stout as its recoil is, the pulse is pretty much straight back, making the DB9 easily controllable in rapid fire.
Even though the DB9 is small and relatively inexpensive(~$400 NIB) , there is nothing "cheap" about it. The innards are well built, the frame is solid feeling and the pistol has no rattles or any play at all in the slide.
That's my take in it for now.
