Your call, but I'd ship it back to Ruger. They'll pay shipping both ways, fix it, and be nice about it - all at no charge to you. They really need to do something about their QC, though. When you get it back, it should be perfect. Only takes a week, too.

Well, mine got back yesterday. According to the paperwork Ruger sent with the pistol, they "replaced the magazine disconnect, striker assembly, trigger bar lift spring, trigger bar reset, and trigger bar. The also repaired the barrel. I wonder what was wrong with it. At any rate, I went to the...

When I called them yesterday, "Prescott" told me much the same as they told you....LOTS of parts replaced or repaired - including the barrel and slide. They said they fired 50 rounds through it without a problem, so I'm hoping it's OK now. Due to arrive here sometime today. I'll post my range...

I had thought that my last trip to the range was about as bad as it could get, what with my SR9C failing to feed about 1/3 of the time. Today, I only had 7 out of 30 feed properly. Both large and small magazines, clean and lightly lubed gun, and 3 different brands of high-quallity, US-made ammo...

I've only put about 600 rounds through my LC9, but that's enough to learn that it really doesn't like Winchester 115 gr FMJs at all. Everything else goes through without a hitch, and the pistol is definitely in love with CCI Blazer ammo. Go figure. I'm sticking with Cor-Bon for my "business" loads.

I have the Galloway kit, including trigger, trigger bar, and springs. I haven't installed them yet, and I'm not sure whether or not I shall. I just got back from the range, and after putting another hundred rounds of American Eagle through my LC9, my only complaint is that I'm consistently...
