DB9

Post by wgoforth »

Anyone handled or shot a Diamondback 9? Not the .380, but the 9mm?

Personally I would not be interested in anything from Diamondback, we sold 5 of their 380's and everyone of them made numerous trips back for repairs and they are still not 100% reliable. They also refused to supply any shipping labels and they told one of our customers that it must be returned to them through an FFL, this is a service we provide to our customers at no charge, but at least they should have the option to return it for warranty repairs themselves.. I look at this company as the modern day Raven Firearms. Bad taste in ones mouth takes a long time to go away.....

Rather have the LC9.

I don't trust anything with the Diamondback name on it.

LC9 looks interesting, the DB9 can be easily pocket carried. I have read the reviews saying the internals were beefed up, taking care of problems experienced in the .380.

But the customer service issues you all related would have me concerned. Anyone here have good experience with them?
