Put 1/2 down on my new Kel-Tec PF9 today...

#1

Post by Dwight K. Schrute »

...and if you ask me why I needed to put something cheap like a Kel-Tec on layaway, remember, I'm young and on a college budget! So, in 30 dreadfully long days, I will acquire my new baby. Went with the chrome slide; Not my style to get something flashy like chrome, but it's the most moisture/abrasion resistant finish Kel-Tec makes. Besides, it's a carry gun, not a range gun; Nobody needs to see it. Making this purchase was a big step, but I need something more concealable so I may carry 24/7 instead of just sporadically. I hate knowing I shelled out some money that I'm tight on now, but hey, the day I need to use the gun (God forbid) is the day I'll be grateful I bought it, right? (Insert reassuring "way to go" comments here...)

I think you made a good decision on the Kel-Tec, Dwight. Many of us on this Forum can relate to putting half down on a particular weapon and live in anticipation until we have the other half.
The last train out of any station will not be filled with nice people.

Congratulations Dwight.

Don't worry about having to put half down on a gun. I promise, you will never have enough money in life no matter how successful you are.

I think that you made a fine choice. Make sure that you let us know when you pick it up.

Congrats, I just joined the kel-tec family, too. Gotta love the pf-9
Now, I gotta get some concealable laser sights to go with them (and dual shoulder holsters to hold it all)

Dude, you've got nothing at all to be ashamed of. Besides, you're WAY ahead of where I was during undergrad...I can recall having to eat Ramen noodles (spicy shrimp was my favorite ;-) ) for weeks on end due to low/no cash flow!

I could have never afforded any gun while in college. I applaud your fiscal maturity. :thumbsup:

Congrats!

Having a viable means of defending yourself is worth living on ramen noodles for a couple weeks :)

You'll have to let us know how it shoots when you pick it up.
