    SR9 Front sights off center

    he said he's got an sr9, not an lc9.... Haven't heard any issues of sight drift on the sr9. And the newer SR9s have the same very nice trigger as the sr9c. osirhc, you mention your shots are hitting left. If the front sight appears to be left of center, then correcting it will only make your...

    Advice, Please: Ruger SR9 vs. M&P Shield 9mm.

    I've owned a ruger SR9c for a year now, love it, carry it everywhere, OWB with loose clothing, or IWB when I need to be dressed in tucked-in business clothes. Never had any issues, hides very well, but i'm 6'3, 210. The sr9c shoots great, one of the best stock triggers on any similar gun I've...

    FYI - .22 Ammo

    It does sell off very quick, but i've been able to catch quite a bit over the last couple weeks. I've got 650 rounds of federal and 500 rounds of CCI blazer waiting at my local cabellas, and another 700 rounds of CCI mini mag on the way. The Mini mag is a little pricey, but a neighbor has...

    Can you release slide on empty chamber?

    I've always been told not the drop the slide on an empty gun, and I won't do it on any gun I handle. The slide dropping with a loaded mag will absorb some of the energy stripping and chambering a round, without a round to chamber, that energy must hit the parts of the gun harder than in normal...

    sr1911 should I have cause for alarm

    Actually, if my RIA 1911 ever in my lifetime needs service, it goes back to the Armscor facility in Nevada. Best $350 I ever spent. 1200 rounds thru it in the past 2 months and it's been rock solid. But I do like knowing the service is handled right here in the US, just like ruger.

    SR9c not disassembling

    Did you remember to push down the ejector? You need to lock the slide open, push down the ejector, then remove the takedown pin and remove the slide.

    SR9 questions, first time gun owner

    So to be clear, is the spent casing staying stuck in the chamber? If so, you'd end up with the next round shoved into the back of the spent round. If you chamber a round (load the mag then rack the slide to load a round), drop the mag, then pull the slide back slightly, does it pull the round...

    First time occurrence of a problematic jamming

    I had a round in some WWB 9mm where the case had a dent/wrinkle in it. I found it as I was loading the magazine, so I never tried to chamber it, but I'm betting it would jam up similar to how you described it.

    Love my SR9c

    I've noticed the reset is short.... so if you don't release all the way after a shot, the next shot's pull can surprise you if you haven't practiced with the reset. I also love my sr9c.

    How many have tried FrogLube ?

    I switched over to it. Really like it so far. The first time I used it, I used a solvent to completely remove any of the old oil, then heated up the parts and applied the paste. After letting the parts cool down, I wiped off any excess and reassembled. Save the cloth you use to wipe off...

    SR40c Trigger Fils To Reset

    Well, either me and a buddy got really lucky with our SR9Cs, or I got really unlucky on the other guns I tried out. Either way I'm happy.

    SR40c Trigger Fils To Reset

    Sorry, no help on how to solve your issue... I'd try going back to stock parts and see if it resolves the issue, at least as a test. Once back to stock, if it's not 100%, send it back to ruger to have them fix it up for you. I haven't ever heard anyone call a SR9C or SR40c trigger bad.... the...

    Arthritis is getting the best of me. Thinking about selling

    Haven't tried either of these links, but i've used similar deals where the pham companies provide programs for people who are having to pay for the drugs themselves: http://www.internetdrugcoupons.com/celebrex-Coupon https://www.celebrex.com/offers.aspx

    New SR45 on 10-day California Wait

    No, the true purpose of any of these restrictions is to inconvenience law abiding citizens enough that some of them won't bother with the BS required to purchase or carry firearms. But grats on the upcoming SR45. Looked at one yesterday to go with my SR9C. I need to wait out my wife's...

    SR9c locking open

    I've seen 3 or 4 cases reported on various forums in the past couple weeks of this exact issue. I will definitely be keeping an eye on the slide lock spring on mine.
