Diamondback DB380 & DB9

[Baus302]

It is piling on at this point, but a co-worker of mine has had nothing but issues (FTFs, etc.) with his DB9. He advises to stay away.

I thought that DB was started and owned by a former Glock employee/engineer...? Or am I mis remembering?

Not sure if you're kidding, but that's actually true. They are ugly as sin, heavy, limited capacity for what the shoot and fill no use other than cheap. They do work great though.... And that's most important.

It was tongue in cheek....however, I have owned several Hi-Points (always seem to get them in trades) and in all calibers. Never once had a FTF or FTE and they always went bang when you pulled the trigger, mainly used them as a "truck" gun.
The complaints on the Diamondback seem to be prevalent on most reviews I have seen...POS.

Wow what a fan base the diamond back has. Haha
A buddy of mine was wondering about them and I really hadn't heard much about them so thinks for the replies.

the guy that owns diamondback firearms owns diamondback air boats. That is what he has done for years. He recently got into the firearms market with the db.380. Well, a few years ago. They now have a few pistols and some AR's. I will stick with my glock. I don't know how they are still in business. But I wonder that with hi point and cobra as well.
