THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT I just bought one, took it to the range tonight. It functioned just fine with my handloads, which have CCI primers in them. I Switched to the S&B, but it was light striking every round. Now, I got distracted, and played with my LCP and CZ75B for a bit, and then forgot to run some more ammo through the PF9 to verify if it was just the ammo or not... Hopefully I can get back to the range in the next day or two to check that. But, figured I'd ask here anyway, just in case S&B is particularly hard to set off in the PF9.... |

a quick google search is showing others complaining of light strikes with S&B, so I'm pretty confident it was just the ammo. But, I will definitely get the gun back to the range for more testing.

Yes,pf9 hammer spring is weak and S&B has hard primers.
I also had this issue when I 1st got mine. |

I've used s&B with my PF9 and didn't have any light strikes. I did alot of polishing on mine when I bought it though so maybe that has helps with light strikes?

I have shot all USA ammo in my PF9: 2 types of FMJ, and 4 types of hollow points with no issues.
However, with my Sig 230 in 380, I have never had light primer hits with USA ammo, but have had that issue with two types of foreign ammo. One was PMC and I think S&B was the other. |
