I've had the LC9 for a few years now, no malfunctions. Most don't like the trigger, I don't either but the gun hasn't malfunctioned yet and is accurate. I've decided to keep it, I shoot it well out to about 10 yards plus, at 15 yards I have to go to body shots only with it, at 25 yards bullets hit somewhere on the body but it ain't pretty. It's very good for the intended purpose.
