I just ordered a stainless K9 w/night sights from Bud's gun shop.... Looking forward in getting it as I keep hearing so many good things about it.
I own a MK40 Elite and rented a K40.
Both great guns.
But if I could turn back time?
Would switch to a K40/K9 Elite.
IMHO the MK gun are too heavy for pocket carry.
On a belt? Why not have the extra capacity and grip?
Also my MK is the hardest to rack semi auto I've got.
The K series seems easier to rack and take down to me.

I have the MK9 Elite and going to add a K9 to the family. I do have the CW9 and the accuracy of that pistol amazes me. I am a certified NRA as well as a USCCA Training Counselor as well as a Glock armorer. The CW is 10 years old and I cannot begin to count how many rounds it has fired. I do routine maintenance and changed the guide rod spring,but that is it. the CW point much better than the Glock 43 and felt recoil is milder with the same load. Now I said all that to say this. The MK9 is a true jewel to shoot. Negligible recoil and a good heft in the hand that you do not get with your polymer pistols. The balance is excellent and once again you get a natural point with either gun that you do not get with the Glock. I am not bashing Glock, just saying what works for me.
