For holsters, I tried the kydex IWB from WTP but ended up sending it back as I couldn't make it comfortable. My best solution thus far is the VNSH belly band style holster. It's doing a great job of spreading the C9-A2's weight out and tucking it close to my body so there isnt much printing. I still have the search radar on for a kydex solution. |

It's good to get direct feedback from someone who's tried it. I've got several holsters that are similar in appearance that have been great, but there have also been one or two that just weren't a good match. |

View Quote It figured, and right after I had just ordered some the day before from elsewhere. *sigh* Well, another order placed. That will mean 10 more A1's and 9 more A2's all together. A few more magazines, and I can probably get promoted to mag whore. |

Where does one buy spare parts for these pistols? I searched a couple of times and can't find any.

So with these pistols dropping in price are they being replaced with a new model? Very curious as I was looking at buying one but I'm not sure, thoughts?

View Quote Honestly we do not know. Typically the Steyr gen take awhile for new versions to come out, however concerns leading to the grip and FCU both being serialized may cause something to come sooner. We also still have the issue of no optics ready version. Steyr has stated something is on the way but they also seemed to indicate it was a sleigh design, which is just a bad idea. Steyr USA has also been delivering newa parts that have been absent for years. They also redesigned their website. So maybe? They are trying harder and there are areas to address, but Steyr doesn’t move quickly. Sales on their guns are common, especially in the down turned market we are in right now. |

I’m thinking seriously about selling my M9A1. I like the pistol but it doesn’t really do anything better than my Glocks and I rarely shoot or carry a pistol without a dot these days. The only bad thing is that’s it’s a super rare factory threaded barrel model and if I regret it down the road, it would be very difficult to find another.

View Quote Matching numbers no. I doubt you will find another matching numbers threaded barrel on the market. Likely that was a contract over run gun. It’s possible Steyr may do something with a threaded barrel from factory in the future but I highly doubt it. If they are focused on anything it would be an optics cut version, however I wouldn’t hold my breath on that either. |

View Quote I agree, it’s one of two gripes I have with the platform. That said when I bought my Glock I went with direct mill over their optics plate to eliminate the weak point, so as long as there are options to mill it’s the smaller of the two gripes. Steyr needs to take advantage of the fcu and offer frames amongst other accessories. I will say the move from the A1 to the A2 addressed all my other concerns (grip, ejector, etc) |

I liked that combo until Steyr did a 50% off mag sale. Now it might be better to just get the gun then the mags from Steyr. After that you can pick your light.

True, kinda surprised any of the sales have continued so long. Although I know the industry is hurting. It’s funny you mention a beretta, I have been so close to picking up the same gun half a dozen times. Actually was heading to a shop to grab one and a S&W 19-4 from a recent collection purchase by the shop before the beretta was sold. Still got the S&W. I don’t mind beretta either, I like the px4 and the 92, but the APX is still not in my collection.

Considering nabbing one of these at the Bereli price. Really like the design of it, and can't complain with the price. Has anybody seen any long term reliability issues from these?
|
|

I stopped cleaning my A1 to see what would happen since my A2 are defense guns. It’s still going. It’s had one issue and that was right after taking it apart since I didn’t insert the chassis correctly. When they come in I do use my general oil and grease procedure but I haven’t had any issues with them. After I coated my C9A2 in cerakote I felt some resistance when it came back and used a lapping compound. No problems. All that said I’ve spent a fair amount of time altering them from basic polishing to coating in NP3+. I’m not sure how many rounds I have through them but if I go shooting I always take one. The A2 I clean regularly and the A1 did have a polish job before coating in NP3+, but I have stopped cleaning it. The biggest issues was with the extractor from the A1 ejecting brass into the rim of you hat, however that was redesigned with the A2

Alright, I went with the M9-A2. Was considering the CZ P-01 or the P-07 but I couldn't get hands on with either of them in my town so I just went with the Steyr as it would give me more funds to throw around
Also bought some mags from Steyr while the sale is on. |

Anyone hear any Shot Show rumors out of Steyr?

There has been speculation we will see the 300 black out barrel, L9A2 manual safety, and their new 308. Will any actually make it, who knows. Steyr has a bad reputation of presenting firearms or concepts that fail to materialize. We may also get a look at their new rail system for the Aug, but I doubt it.

Bereli has the C9A2 for $299 right now, as of this post.
