:D I should probably stay off the GB site for the rest of the year. Saw this little puppy waiting for a new home. So now my T40 has a new little brother in the way of a T9!
Looks like the sights have been changed to XS. Wonder how I will like that. I prefer the standard sights in Kahr line, but we will see how this works out.:D

Very nice, two T's, your a lucky guy.

I love the kick stand too. Sharp pointy things are a second passion.

Great, I like to buy a knife now and then. I have a few Randalls and some old Marbles. All fixed blade knifes for me. :D

I don't have any but I always look for Marbles. Wrong side of the track for Randall's all together.
A year or so ago there was a guy at the gun show with a table full of Randall's. He let me hold most of them. Darn nice knives. Way way out of my league.

Bawanna, as you know if you held a Randall it is a quality knife. Just look at the fine detail, makes you think you are looking at jewelry almost. And yes they are about as expensive as jewelry too. Since it is my own post I will sidetrack it a little with some knife photos.

A few old Marbles, quality from many years ago.

Well we generally frown on side tracking threads around here but I suppose we can allow it just this once.

That stag handled Randall and that second from the top Marble absolutely sing to me. That's more than a few you got there. That's a 401K right there.

I do have a thing for stag, oh and wide spur hammers but we don't need to go there.

The stag handled Marble is a Woodcraft model from the 1920s. It is the only stag Marble I have and I am pretty fond of it.
The Randall you refered to is a Model 27 and is a pretty large knife 6.5" blade I think. But since you like stag knives , my favorite Randall is the one below. A 25-5 model. A sweet knife. Glad you like them. Enjoy!

Just picked up my T9 today. I think I will like the big dot front sight. Very nice condition still in the plastic oily bag like new. What you see on the slide and frame is oil Great looking wood on it too. On the down side it doesn't have any paperwork or box. Oh well as hard as they are to find in 9mm, I wasn't going to pass it up. Very pleased with the purchase and will give it a work out this weekend. http://glocktalk.com/forums/images/smilies/greensupergrin.gif

I was gonna swap him the Randall for it but then I remembered it's his Randall to start with, I got nothing to swap.

Damn.

Now that would be a good deal for you if you could work it out. Trade my Randall for my T9. I make my living in sales, but I know I'm not that good! :D

So whatch you are saying is don't worry about the box and paper work. I'm certainly not losing in sleep over it. I really love these T guns. Wish they made them more available. :)

See that gun looks perfectly sized but I can't decide if I would want the k9 elite over the t9... Oh white man problems..

Well I have a K9 and a T9. If you want to CC get the K9. If you just want a range or HD gun, the T9 is a good choice. IMO.

I just had a daydream and that Randall was the star attraction. Hope it continues tonight. I don't dream good stuff to often it's usually crummy stuff.

I hope this is not considered too much of a side track. I have found a used T9 with night sights. $675. Looks to be in excellent condition. This is the first T9 I have come across, so it's not like I can do a lot of comparing prices. Am I off-base for hoping to find one for a cheaper price? Or, is that a fair price for a used T9?

There are no T9's for sale on Gunbroker and one beautiful one for sale on Armslist for $700, so $675 sounds ok. I have found that if it is always going to bother you if you didn't get the perfect price, then it's better to wait & wait & wait until you get what you want for a price that won't bother you. That's what I did with my MK9 Duo Tone and I haven't regretted it once.

If it's near new, thats an ok price. Not a great price, but not bad. If it's older and the night sights are dim, etc ..... offer $550 to $600.

I own 4 T's and have paid between $525 and $800. The $800 gun is a fully customized ceramic finish with extra serration work on the slide, with some polishing.

I agree. The 675 is a fair price. Not great but not bad either. I would buy it at that price.

Took the T9 out yesterday for the first time. My first 5-6 rounds went wide left from the bullseye. So I looked at the xs big dots, and sure enough they were all jacked up. So I stopped shooting it and finished the day with my HK P30.
I went back home and got my brass punch and dial calipers. I was able to center the sights on the slide . So today I went back to my shooting spot and put some rounds down range. They all hit dead center. I finished up the rounds with no issues and some good hits. I love the way these T9s shoot. If theres a better 9mm pistol out there I don't know about it. Very pleased with the XS sights as well. Very easy to pick up that front sight!

Someone should buy it, they don't come along often. I really like the big dot sights. I have them on the one I just bought. :)
