Default I've joined the LC9s Mafia

Grabbed one at the show here yesterday. My purchase decision was based on concealability. I am slim/skinny so small differences in pistol butt size and shape make a huge difference in how/if a gun prints when I carry.

The LC9s gives me enough grip to get hold of while concealing very well. The Shield was a close second at the price point with the XD compact a distant third. Did handle the Sig 938 and liked it, especially the trigger, but it's just too pricey for my current circumstances.

Polymer makes the weight right and probably simplifies getting a slim and non-printing shape. Yes, I also like the price.

I also prefer the trigger over the Shield, but that's a subjective/tactile thing.

I can afford a Sig and prefer the lc9s.
With the 9 round extended magazine it is perfect for ccw carry 10 rounds in a small thin package.
The trigger is crazy nice
