I recently purchased a Keltec pf-9 from my local gun dealer. I chose it for it small size and the power of the 9mm over the .380s.
I took it to the range and with factory practice ammo shot 3 bulleyes and 3 in the next ring out at 10yds on the six shots.
Aside from the visious recoil that goes along with small pistols like this, I was extreemly pleased with it. (and still am). I really love the thing.
I have no complaints with the quality, have not had a single ftf, fte, or any problem at all for that matter.
A month later I get a call from the dealer I purchased this from that I had to bring it back to the shop, asap!
He told me to bring my plastic case and everything that came with it.
After getting there I find out that the S/N and bar code on the outside of the box didn't match the S/N on the pistol.
The number registered to me was the # on the box that matched the barcode since most gun dealers inventory their guns from these barcodes.
We had to re-register my pf-9 to me with the other s/n before I could carry it again. We found out that Keltec thought they manf. 2 pistols with the same s/n but in actuality someone at Keltec switched the pistols from their respective cases and I ended up with one of them and didn't know it until the other one was sold from a different dealer a month and 1/2 later.
I wonder how long I would have walked around with an un-lincenced, un-registered conceiled firearm, until the police would have caught me with it.
I urge everyone out there that when purchasing a pistol from any dealer to compair s/ns of the box to the s/n of the gun in the box before leaving any store.
Thankfully I never had a traffic check or permit check while carrying this thing or my wife would have been bailing me out of jail.
As I said, I have no complaints about the quality of the pistol and think it is a good value for the money, but will trust Keltec or any other gun manuf again without checking for my self to make sure all s/n's match.
