Diamondback DB9

Anyone own one? Have any experience with the brand?

I've seen some Diamondback .380's down at Holly's place, but did not realize they made a micro 9MM...

Never noticed them, but it looks like a good little carry piece.

Well... just looked a bit closer. They can't handle +P ammo. Voids the warranty.

Ya, but even with standard loads it's gunna have better stopping power then the 380.

I kinda like it & the fact that it is only slightly larger than the .380 version is a major plus in my book!

^^ Agreed, but the Kimber Solo is nearly identical in size. I'm stickin with the Kimber.

Hell ya! If it's between those two & the fact that the Kimber costs approx. 3x as much isn't an issue, there is no comparison! Kimber wins all day!

Do you know if Holly has completed jumping through all the hoops to become a Kimber authorized dealer yet?

I think the Kimber comes in at about 700. The Diamondback is close to 400 isn't it??

I don't know if Holly has been able to hook up with Kimber yet.. Rick has been taking good care of me at R&H though..
