Nothing wrong with that. My wife shoots primarily a 1911 or a vp9. She prefers a 1911, but her instructor shoots a vp9 so she is a fan. Vp9 is a good option and feels good in the hand, although mine is older and not a optics cut version.

As far as I have seen the vp9 has been a good gun. Haven’t run it hard in matches yet but haven’t seen anything to concern me. Then again the only pistol I have seen that ever truly failed hard was a p320. Buddy says it was a fluke, but worries me as it took awhile to remedy it with where the rock got stuck. Also concerns me on the general openness of the omnivore holster. I have run a usp a few times when using the g36k clone without issue.

FYI, V1 shows 8 M9A2 in stock if anyone is looking for one. I'd grab one if I had the cash right now.

My LGS had a used L9-A2 MF in it's rack for what I thought was a decent price, and I love hipster guns, so I took it home
![]() Previous owner never cleaned apparently...to be fair it also doesn't look like they put any appreciable number of rounds though it; maybe a hundred or so, max, judging by the carbon under the extractor and on the barrel ramp. Hopefully I can get it to the range soon and try it out. Is it normal for these things to have a very soft and non-tactile reset? I'd compare it to a BHP reset, but the BHP actually feels better ![]() Also, what do these things come with from the factory normally? Mine came with one mag, two keys for the lock, one large backstrap (I'm assuming large? Certainly fatter than the one that was installed on it)...and that's it. There's a bunch more cutouts in the foam (like for a cleaning rod, etc), but everything was unpopulated/empty in the foam...reading online there's allusions to grip panels and etc as well, none of which came with my example. Am I missing a bunch of crap, or did Steyr stop sending that stuff out with new guns? Also, no label on the hard case...it looks like there's "03/2021" on the barrel and on the frame chassis, so apparently fairly recent manufacture. |

View Quote If they won’t help let me know and I’ll send the L stuff over to you. I have 3 A2 and leave the smaller grips on the C9A2. Lock is just a tiny lock for cases not really for a breach lock. Trijicon makes some standard 3 post night sights. All the A1 series sights work for the A2. Only other gun I really shoot much anymore is my 226 as well. Seems in faster with the steyr but more precise with the 226 although bit by much either way. |

Nice find, I do like HK and as for another polymer pistol I like the vp9. It’s a good gun and if my wife ever gets into the red dots I’ll probably get another. Although if I wasn’t shooting the steyr I would be back with the 226/228. let me know if you do put them up on the EE. Although I’m pretty good about searching for steyr and Daewoo gear frequently on here. On a side note apparently someone in the tsa likes steyr. Saw this in Hawaii

Picked up an M9-A2 MF today from a local gun shop for $299. Took it home and cleaned it up, appears to be almost brand new. I don't know much about it other than I am not a fan of the triangle sights. What else do I need to know about it? Any common issues? Shot pretty well for me, I was impressed

One thing I did alter was for my XL hands, it's better if I have the right panel be the large panel but the left panel be the normal/flat panel. Otherwise it really crunches up my fingers with a two handed hold. A flat panel on the left side seems to fix that issue really well. I just need to find a decent holster for it now.. |

A1 slides with go onto the A2 but the A2 has a upgraded extractor / frame changes to stop it from breaking when it impacts on the frame so stick with A2 if you can although there are A1 slides floating around from L&M that are pretty good. negatives here 1 people are reporting the ejection still flips them onto your hat. Mine has been good with thousands of round down but I’ve heard it’s an issue from some so check and wear eye pro just in case yours has an issue. 2 no aftermarket support. A1 holsters won’t work well due to the rail change. Double click makes them for it and they are good to go. Also black trident makes some but they are expensive since they are from Austria. Ranger is done making gear but you can still get some of their weights and there are steel guide rods still being made from them. Optics cuts are a pita but there are some sources. 3 if it’s used you might not have the grip inserts but Steyr will give you some. Be carful if you the recoil reducing springs as they don’t like 115 4 low tactile and audible reset. Train and it’s no issue. |

I edc a C9A2 and with competitions use the L9A2. M9A2 is bedside. Now the A1 had some issues but they fixed all but one for the A2 which for me was optics ready. If you get a A1 you may try the extractor spring fix and file down the striking point in the frame where the edge of the extractor hits as well as add talon grips. Main downside is the same with all Steyr products is they don’t advertise and so after market parts are hard to find. Ejection is the only thing I would watch for with a A2. |

As for removing it I am going to say probably not and if you did having a hole in the side of the gun isn’t a great idea especially in that location. The lock acts as a push button retention lock for the locking lever as well as a turning physical lock for the pistol. I am really not sure how many thousands of rounds I have used through all my Steyr Pistols but one I decided to stop cleaning my L9A1 three thousand or so rounds ago and haven’t had a issue. It’s dirty as hell but still functions. I haven’t heard of it ever being an issue either so it’s good to go. I will add when actually turning the lock on its kinda if a pain in the ass and I can’t see it doing it accidentally under any conditions. |

Tag because I just bought an M9-A1 and there aren’t any other Steyr threads going.

Think we'll ever see a factory optic cut? My Steyrs are still my favorite, but wanting to scratch that optic itch on my C9A2. Steyr really seems to still be behind on accessories as well. Hasn't been a threaded barrel in stock for a long time. Forget about any of their other firearm lines (SM12).

I picked up one of the WeThePeople holsters for my L9A2 and while I haven't tried it at the range just messing with it at home I am pretty disappointed. Seems very flimsy compared to my other kydex holsters and uses a proprietary belt interface that sucks.

If you want a ready to order I would do double click holsters. If you want a custom one I would do we plead the 2nd. I’ve had my fair share of shitty holsters. Bought a alien gear for a usp 45 since shipping was fast and wanted it for a trip coming up. Huge mistake, very flimsy and the clips would fall off way to easy under hard use. If I have the time I often do a we please the 2nd m. Since I like their designs and they are local, but a ready to go Steyr holster is really black trident or double click. Just a fyi if you need sotmhing custom you can email double click and they will do stuff like sarfsriland fork

Depends on parts, the slides work on each other. Although if you get a A2 I’m not sure why you would keep much A1 parts on it unless you milled a slide. The A2 grip is a huge improvement and the changes to the A2 slide especially the extractor are very welcomed. Not sure you wouldn’t just keep both unless you had a slide milled you wanted to run.
For the SN, A1 are on the grip, Early L9A2 are just chassis, later L9A2 and all M9A2 and C9A2 are on both. According to Steyr this was done to appease different markets and the chassis system is still the serialized part with the atf. |

Also the S9A1 was never redesigned after the ban so you are stuck with 10 rounds mags on a gun that should at least be 12 if not more. No one has made a way to remove the plug and replace it. Many started to use the C9 mags with a cover but then there is no point to the S9A1 as you now have a C9. Really the S9A1 could never compete well with the hellcat, ruger, or 365 so I think they will kill it off until they redesign. Mostly do to size, balance, and capacity. Main problem is to make it Competitive they would need to redesign it to the point it would lose compatibility with the A2 line up so I think they are done with it for now since civilian sales have rarely been the motivating factor for Steyr. Honestly I have one but there are better options out there and for a small grip size change you can get the C9A2 with 17 rounds. Also while I like my A1 guns, the upgrades on the A2 especially on the grips and extractor are well worth it. |

The acro conversion plate is rather large in the picture since the ke arms one for some reason is very high, almost 2-3 times the other I got, but I haven’t installed the lower fitting one yet. It’s 100 for the cut but I also did the predator slide cut so total was 300 for me. ![]() |
