More out of curiosity than anything but has Ruger fixed the issues with the SR-9? It made a big splash when they first came out with it and then went to the bottom like a striker fired rock when they recalled them? Hadn't heard much lately.

They're installing XD style triggers in them and shipping them back. They seem to have fixed the problem.

The gun rags say it's a better trigger...of course that's coming from the gun rags. :roll:

it appears to be a love/hate thing.............folks either love the change or absolutely hate it.....

dang little middle ground.........

Eddie had his done. If he stops playing with the dang dog for a minute maybe he can give us his thoughts. I think he already did once. :?

Cwap is cwap...he's spending his time wisely...Ruger's new wonderflops aren't worth foolin' with...and they're discontinuing the finest pistols they ever made in the name of NEW....

Why buy an SR9 from someone who blew it when you could get a Glock, Sig, Smith, Springfield, Taurus and so on from people who have been at it for years.

It's like if some new company started making half-ton trucks with the idea of replacing the F-150.

I was doing a google search for 'dog' when this thread popped up.

I love my SR9, I really do. In fact, I really like this new green one. But I just found out about the LCP recall, so now might not be a good time to give a glowing endorsement for Ruger semi-autos.

 

[Bountyhunter]

The LCP is more of an upgrade than anything. I think the SR9 was too. There were no accidents involving them. Someone figured out if you put a round in the chamber and slammed it into the floor at 42.3 mph it might go off. :roll:

Guns & Ammo TV just did a segment on how great it is. Of course they heavily sponser G&A TV. It's all Corporate Nazi propaganda to get in your wallet.

Who needs that tupperware POS, when you can have a 1911 anyway?

 

[Cast&Blast]

Well I'm not going to put it up against the 1911, but it does hold 17+1, which is nice.

 

[Deadeye]

Yes & with a bullet that small you'll need every one of them!

Don't get me wrong. I think plastic 9mm pistols are great! My Mom carries one every day!

 

[Bountyhunter]

You're such a jerk, Deadeye. :roll: :lol:

I'll keep my six shooters.

Ouch! :x

 

[sheepdog]

my plastic pistol says ".45 A C P" on the barrel..and I like it berryberry much!!!

 

[Natalie]

Eddie, I don't think Deadeye likes your gun. :?

 

[Cast&Blast]

Eddie, I don't think Deadeye likes your gun. :?

Yeah, it seems there's a stigma about the plastic part.

What if I said the pistol was constructed with a space-aged polymer??

 

[sheepdog]

...I'd still say they picked it before it was ripe...

 

[Cast&Blast]

...I'd still say they picked it before it was ripe...

I can't really argue with that. But I do want to say that when I took that defensive handgun course, the gun performed flawlessly through an entire day of moving and shooting, I think it was like 400 rounds or something. And the instructors all wanted to try it after the class, they were skeptical too. But they all were really impressed by it.
