Great write up. Very thorough, and I think pretty objective. It's clear that you really like this weapon though you aren't overlooking some flaws and touting it as the greatest pistol ever created.
Kudos, sir. I've looked hard at the SR9, and this definitely helps. My buddy carries an SR9 and loves it. He's had a few light strikes but doesn't clean his guns terribly often or well. Perhaps a dirty firing pin?
This isn't necessarily related to the weapon itself, but is there a reason why you prefer the belly band over an IWB holster?
