Where are you buying ammo? 45 auto is more expensive than both the 9mm and 40 s/w.

I too was recently shopping. went to a store and handled both the springfield and sr9. I chose the sr9. it felt better in my hand, I didnt like the grip safety, the ruger has a mag release on both sides that doesnt have to be 'switched', its already there, finally, the sr9 also has an actual safety.

my suggestion is to get to a store that has both in stock and feel them out.

also, my ruger out the door was less than $500. the springfields are higher than that. at the local place,about $100 higher.
