Been kicking around getting a K9 for a couple of years now. It's funny I'm so enamored with the K9 because I'm generally no fan of striker fired guns. But that trigger intrigues me! I usually carry one of my Hi Powers (or occasionally a Detonics) and DAO trigger aside the K9 feels a lot like a BHP to me. And my aging eyes love the bar dot sights. I use the Ritchie Leather Nighthawk for my IWB needs and was factoring in the cost of that if I decided to get a K9. I was checking the Ritchie leather website and they are having a $20.00 off Christmas sale until January 5th. So ordering the holster kind of committed me to a K9 but I knew I would kick myself for getting it later and losing twenty bucks that could go towards the K9 purchase. Well since the holster was coming it started to bother me that I have nothing to stuff in it so I started to scour the internet. K9 prices are all over the place but I found a place that had 2 (now 1!) K9 elites for $719.00 with free shipping. Be interesting to see how quickly I get use to the DAO trigger, should be a lot of fun even if it takes a while!
