RE: Ruger 9MM
SR9, but I have seen them shot at my club. I noticed that the slide stop either does not work correctly, or the gun is not designed to lock the slide open after the first shot (not sure which is the case). l |
RE: Ruger 9MM
ORIGINAL: HEAD0001 I remember when Ruger first brought out their P-85 pistol. I sold so many of them that it was not even funny. And I returned a bunch of them to Ruger. I actually returned some that when shot at a chest high target at 25 yards, the bullet would strike the floor. Then there was the next P series. Not much better. It is hard to recommend a pistol when you have a bad taste in your mouth because of the history of the pistol But then I can remember how bad the S&W 39 was also. If you are getting a 3-4 inch group at 25 yards from a Ruger then you should be happy with that. That is as good as anyone I have ever seen shoot. My suggestion is save your money and buy a better pistol. But I am sure I will get flamed for saying that. But so be it. However I can say that I have owned and shot a few dozen P series auto's over the years. And I would never even consider letting my life depend on one of them. Tom. |

RE: Ruger 9MM
Hey guys Thanks for the response. Went to a gun shop and looked at the choices. Couldnt find the Sr9. One of the guns I picked up was a used ruger and I noticed the slide wobbled or had play(after it was released) not sure how many rounds It had thru it.
Still looking.:) |
RE: Ruger 9MM
For a SR9 around here I called around and a few places had it instock. The gun shop I like to deal with didn't have it and still doesn't have one instock. I think most of their guns seem to be used. Well, handguns anyway although they have a few new ones. They said they had a waiting list of 9 people for the newer Ruger 9mm which I'm assuming was the SR9 he didn't remember what the model was just that it was the newer one and that's the newest one I know of so I assume it was the same one. He told me he could check but I told him not to worry about it. Unless it was a the LCP but that isn't a 9mm so I kind of doubt it. I ended up finding a few other places that had them instock though.
This was 6 months ago but I still haven't seen one instock there. |
RE: Ruger 9MM
Wow are prices going WILD on anything with a hi cap mag. The Shot show is this week and prices seem to be going up once more.
Is anyone finding wide price swings on prices form shop to shop? I found a beretta 92 fs 9mm for 565.00 at one shop (with 3 mags) and it was 499.00 at another shop, 585.00 at another. any problems getting ammo for 9mm? |
RE: Ruger 9MM
Perhaps you misunderstand how the Ruger P series pistol safetys actually work. The safety version will STILL safely decock the pistol, but can be left on safety, whereas the decocker only has NO manual safety, and is merely decock ONLY. The decocker lever will NOT stay in decock position but the safety will remain on safety until taken off safety. Anyway, I consider the safety/decocker better than decocker only but that is just MY preference.
ORIGINAL: country1 I would recommend the P95 with decock onlyand not a manualsafety if you go with a P95. |
RE: Ruger 9MM
I had the older P89 and that was a nice gun. I'd imagine the P95 would only be improved. $345 is kinda high imo, but it depends on the condition and what gun prices are where you live.
And no problems getting 9mm ammo. It's dirt cheap too. Much better than $0.50 - $2.00 a bullet for .45 ACP!! Shoot 50 rounds in a few minutes at the range and walk away down $25.00. 50 rounds is not a lot! 9mm on the other hand is cheap enough to fire 3-4 times that much for the same price. 150-200 rounds for $25-$30. Makes me jealous and wish I still owned a 9mm. :( |
