    SR 40 Stainless

    I plan on getting one. Internet gossip has it that Ruger may stop making the SR model. I love them, accurate, tough,etc. Right now I only see them for around $400.00...be nice if I could find one for $300. I have the SR9,9c and 40c, so a full size will round it out.

    New 9E

    I have had mine a couple weeks and I love it as opposed to my Glocks. It's very accurate, although mine shoots to the left. Put Talon grips on it since it felt "slippery". Still shoots left, excellent groups but maybe 1 1/2" left. Could be me but I shoot my SR9c and 40c right on the money. I am...

    Newbie mini 14 question

    I am about to buy a Ruger mini 14 in .223. Places I have looked offer 5 round or 20 round rifles. If I buy a 5 round can I still use a 20 round mag later if I want? Thanks for any help

    No respect for the sr40c

    My Ruger SR40c is a tack driver... was shooting Freedom Ammo at 10yds at a rubber dummie...5 shots all touching in center of chest. The gun is way more accurate then me. Pondering getting sights for it...kind of small for my eyes.

    Clinger Holsters

    I have a couple Clingers and they are great. But I did just get a Rawdog holster since it was a good sale and I may be switching to them...very nice holster!

    RAP shooting low with Freedom Ammo

    I went shooting today with both my Ruger SR9c and the RAP compact 9mm. At 10 yds shooting at a 8X11 paper with a 3 inch circle on it I got 5 rounds of Freedom ammo 115gr, RN in a tight group with 3 shots touching. Did the same with RAP and only 3 hit paper about 3 inches low. Anyone else have...

    Ruger American

    The 4yds was a drill, but I wrote what the results were, by no means the best test. I did try 2 different weight bullets Freedom Ammunition and Tula. I fired out to 15 and 25yds. I bench rested the American, still low 1 shot out of 10 hit the 9 ring, never came near the 10 ring, the rest being...

    Ruger American

    I took out my RAP compact and SR9c,Glock 26 and shot all with Tula ammo ($7.00 a box). I used a Pistol-Training target consisting of 6, 1/12" circles. I try to get all my shots into the circle at 4yds. The American shot 1 1/2" low decent group of 5 shots. The G26 got all 10 in a ragged hole...

    Ruger American

    I just got my RAP 9mm compact and I have only fired maybe 35 rounds so it may need a break in, but I shoot low as well with this. I have been shooting my Walther PPQ m2 and a sub compact XD with no problems as far as shooting low goes. This Ruger feels SOOO much better in my hand that I will...

    Ruger American .45

    I know this may not help but I have the 9mm compact and it's a great gun! No ftft,fte....nothing. Quite accurate. I was going to post a question on here about grip size and finger reach on the 45acp. I am assuming it's going to be larger than the 9mm but by how much? I have not seen any 45acp...

    Obtaining accuracy out of a Blackhawk 45

    I have read past posts from years ago here and other forums that accuracy can be increased and leading eliminated by reaming the cylinder in a Blackhawk. Can one do that at home or is it best to send it off to a gunsmith? I read where Cylindersmith is retired. How hard is it to do yourself...

    New Ruger Speed Six

    I saw that Ruger Speed Six, very nice. I have a blue one that I just love. Too bad they don't still make it. I don't have the grips you wish but just wanted to chime in on a great buy!

    SPF Super Blackhawk .44 Magnum 7.5-in. Bbl Mag-Na-Ported

    Hi, I'll have to think about it now. After all this time I sort of decided to keep it, but that Blackhawk looks pretty nice. I have not shot my Ruger except for the one cylinder full and that was cheap 38spl. I'll probably just keep it. It's handy and cheaper to reload for, I also have...

    Why Don't LEOs use ruger SR9/SR9C?

    For what it's worth, I bought a SR45 a few months ago, magazine (both) kept falling out. I did everything Ruger suggested before finally having to send it in. They paid for everything and when I got it back they replaced darn near the whole gun! Ruger sent a list of all items replaced, etc. They...
