    Ruger SR9C Aiming, Sites, Shooting

    Thanks. Exactly what is meant from a rest? And sight picture? A beginner here so just making sure I know what you mean. I know it is probably shooter error. Any other suggestions on correcting it/them? Need to use new targets. I was thinking that I need an actual gigantic board to see where...

    Ruger SR9C Aiming, Sites, Shooting

    So, hadn't shot this gun in a long while. Plus, I have gotten remarried since I have been on here the last time. The wife wanted to shoot my SR9C just to see what it was like. We both shot it at target from 10-15 feet away. We were shooting at a target that already had holes in it but we...

    Trigger not resetting all the time on SR9C.

    I had same trouble with my SR9C. I have a thread on here related to it. I called Ruger, sent the gun in on a Friday and got it back the following Thursday. They replaced the trigger bar assembly. I finally got to go the range couple of days ago. I put 70 rounds through it using both...

    ADVICE ON AMMO... BRANDS, DIRTY, CASINGS, ETC.

    First off, I am a rookie shooter, but any advice would be appreciated on these matters. I stopped by Walmart tonight to pick up some ammo for my SR9C. I have used Remington and Federal with no trouble. Walmart was totally out of stock on both of these brands. I saw PPU ammo and this other...

    RUGER SR9C FIRED WELL... TIPS FOR A NEW SHOOTER

    Now, I am by no means complaining here. Being a successful shooter, an individual needs to possess good stance, correct breathing, proper technique for holding the weapon, aim, adjusting for recoil, etc. etc. etc. I mean women giving birth don't have this many steps to follow (just an...

    RUGER SR9C FIRED WELL... TIPS FOR A NEW SHOOTER

    Can't believe I didn't think of that. I remember when I got my first BB gun. There was a sheet hanging on the clothesline in the backyard. My dad shot at it. Then he told me to aim and shoot as close to his shot as I could. I shot at it, and I missed by less than a foot. I was probably 50...

    RUGER SR9C FIRED WELL... TIPS FOR A NEW SHOOTER

    Good advice. The thing is, I have put bout 200 rounds through it. The first 2 trips to the range I was getting familiar with the recoil, steadying my aim, etc. All I was wanting to do on those first two trips was not embarrass myself and at least hit the target. I did pretty good on those...

    RUGER SR9C FIRED WELL... TIPS FOR A NEW SHOOTER

    I had posted an update awhile back about the trigger not resetting on my SR9C. Ruger fixed it and sent it back in a very timely manner. They replaced the trigger bar assembly. I finally had time to go to the range and put about 60-70 rounds through it. All went well. I need some tips on...

    MY RUGER SR9C, LIKE IT, BUT TRIGGER...

    Well, FedEx just dropped off my gun. That is pretty good time. Sent it off last Friday and got it back today. All I have to do now is head to the range to fire it.

    MY RUGER SR9C, LIKE IT, BUT TRIGGER...

    Just an update: Received an email today from Ruger. Gun is being shipped out today and will be here Thursday. I called Ruger to see what the problem was. The rep said the report stated that they replaced the trigger bar assembly and fired 50 rounds with no malfunctions.

    When I called them, I just said hey I bought a Ruger and this is what it is doing. I never told them it was used, and they never asked. The gun was in like new condition. Just sayin.

    MY RUGER SR9C, LIKE IT, BUT TRIGGER...

    I contacted Ruger later yesterday afternoon. The rep I spoke with then was way better than the one I spoke with yesterday morning. I told her the whole deal and that this was my main pistol. She said to send it in with both clips. Shipping would be paid by them. They would take a look at...

    MY RUGER SR9C, LIKE IT, BUT TRIGGER...

    If figured in that part too. Also, just a few notes to add. I will describe all the actions and you all tell me what you think it could be. I think I am going to call Ruger today and have them send a shipping label. All things with this gun work fine. Slides fine, bullet chambers fine...

    MY RUGER SR9C, LIKE IT, BUT TRIGGER...

    OK, back from range. I put 50 rounds through this gun. I paid attention to which magazine I was using. I thought all was going to go well. Then, trigger reset issues returned. It didn't seem to happen as much, but it still happened. I really like this gun, but this obstacle has me a little...

    As far as gun scrubber goes, do you just point and shoot it where it needs to go like the firing pin mechanism? Do you rub this stuff off using the dry patches? I only as this because what happens if some of it gets in the end of the firing pin. Will this cause misfires, etc?
