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.

I would recommend the P95 with decock onlyand not a manualsafety if you go with a P95.

Where are you seeing those prices? About the cheapest I've found is the Winchester White Box Ammo from Wal-Mart which is $19.99 or whatever. It's $19 something for 100 rounds. I saw a sale at Dicks and if you bought a whole case you could get it slightly cheaper but not much.
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.
The price gap between 9MM and 45 ACPfor factory loaded ammohas really shrunk - especially the last few months.

RE: Ruger 9MM
I have seen the SR9 several places online where people said the SR9 was under 400 (gun reviews, various other websites). So yesterday I was in the mall and stopped by Gander Mountain to see if they had one, and their price is an even 500. Are the prices higher because i live in the socialist state of new york, because i was at Gander Mountain, or both?
