So as y'all can tell my PF9 has failed me miserably also. Got a new extractor from keltec and put it in with some lock-tite on it's screw. Let it all set for about a month while I carried it. Went to shoot it yesterday shot 100 rounds and 25 of those had a FTE! The last mag EVERY round was a FTE. Plan on sending it to keltec ASAP this time around, cause I can't trust this piece of junk.
So here's my question,
what's a gun close to it's size that y'all carry all the time and doesn't fail you?
Doing my own shopping around now, but thought I'd get the professionals opinions
3rd gen glock 26...
Kinda like a Nano. Which is my new summer carry.Man, if they were only a thinner, single stack, I would be in. A Glock 36 is my typical IWB, summer carry.

I meant a single stack G26 would be more comparable to a Nano. Although the barrel length on the G26 is a bit longer.

I could'nt agree more. There is no denying that the Glock has a proven track record and if they had a single stack version it would be worthy of serious consideration.You know, in retrospect I can see what you mean on a couple of levels - attempting to compare specific features of the Glock holding more similar to the Nano than the CM9 or 290. Feature by feature (trigger lock type, striker fired) I would totally agree. I suppose I was just coming at it from a different direction; the Glock being a whole and not just a sum of its parts.
my wanting a glock single stack 9, I am thinking more about their build quality, simplicity and likelihood of reliability out-of-box. Honestly, from initial reports, the Nano, 290 nor CM9 really fulfill the Glock legend (and my personal experience) of reliability.
The nano has had a number of issues with early adopters, the 290 is on its second trigger group with a third (including 2nd strike capability) to be added into production and the whole Kahr line has an entire cadre of detractors from the arrogance of the manufacturer claims that the firearm isn't expected to be reliable until 500 rounds are through it.
Me? Still wishing for a single stack, tiny 9 Glock.
What we each selected as an alternative? We pays our money and we takes our chances. It was danged near a wash for me in terms of the Nano or 290. To be honest, on the SigForum, the Nano is the darling right now.
