Wow, I forgot that I started this thread. Lots of good advice here, thank you to everyone that responded. I wound up buying an SR9. I'm now experiencing the joy of waiting for the MSP to allow me to claim what is mine. I'm guessing I have at least 6 more weeks to go.
In the meantime, I've got no ammo and it's time to fix that problem. My question to all the SR9 owners out there: Is there any particular brand or type that your gun prefers? Anything that is likely to cause FTE, or will it shoot anything you put in it?
I could ask who has anything in stock, but there's plenty of threads devoted to that problem already. I'll just figure out what I'm looking for first.
I had an SR9 back in the day and I ran everything through it without a problem. I even ran 1k rounds of Herters steel cased ammo without issue. Makes me regret selling it
