    The forward serrations are new also I think ... can't remember been a while since I've handled mine.

    I hope it's going to be much better than the lousy M9 A1s North Sylva imported up to now in Canada. I had one, was FTEing like crazy, plus the so-called Picatinny rail was anything else but a Picatinny (I couldn't mount a Streamlight laser/flashlight on it; I measured it and all its dimensions were very far from the Picatinny ones). North Sylva declined even to replace the extractor and the spring (normal FTE fix for the years they imported); lucky the dealer (SFRC) was fair and took it back with full refund.

    According to the folklore, a handful of the M9-A1s brought into Canada had FTF and FTE issues. The fix for these few guns was quick, easy and well known.

    All mine needed was a good cleaning... Now it chews through everything with no issues.

    Steyr makes a great gun. It's a shame that it has been needlessly gossiped about so much.

    I mean it's not like one has ever blown up in someones hands right?

    L9-A1 technical question

    I just got one of these last night. Does anyone else notice a gap that's bigger at the front than the back (between the slide and the frame)? I've talked myself into thinking that it looks this way in other pictures too, so don't think I've received a faulty gun, but wanted to know what you think. The slide is springy and can be compressed at the front of the gun to to close the gap.
    Is this normal, or should I be concerned.
    The image attached is not my actual gun, but thought you could see what I mean. I'll take a picture when I get home from work.
    Any comments are appreciated. Thanks.

    Bought mine today a L9 AI... 9mm with the new Tritium sights, always been a great fan of Steyr products, it will fit great beside my Steyr rifles in the safe... JP.
