Hoosier, I don't know about the 9mm, I have the PT-145 Mil Pro .45acp. Its been very reliable with no ftf or fte. With that said I've only put 200 rounds through it. With a 3-1/4 inch barrel, its not very accurate. I can group all my shots into a pie plate at 30 feet, but thats what it is made for, a backup piece. The older models had frame cracking issues, but that was cleared up a couple of years ago. Resale on these are horrible, not because of the gun, but the name. Wayne
