It has been shot very little, I got it from original owner and shot only about ten rounds through it. It comes with book and one factory mag. Asking $600 cash and want to sell face to face to someone in Oregon only .

Anyone else? Has anyone that owns one ever needed a part? Any thoughts on longevity/Service life?

I have a ruger pc9 and was wanting to stock some extra parts for it, but can't find them. Call me paranoid but I like to have some extra parts laying around. I at least want a complete bolt assembly :) Anyone know where a guy can find parts for one? Or are these things so tough that I never...

Thank you, i would like to add this troublesome part back and keep it original.

The spring is a wire and nothing shows which way it should point, the schematics are vague on orientation. Thanks

Hmmm Phila Pd, the ruger well last a life time with or without this part, the bolt stop does nothing but hold bolt open and it is of manual operation and does not occur in the firing or main funtioning of the rifle. It was just bad engineering on rugers part but hey the gun works great, I don't...

Guess I am just going to leave the bolt stop out, cant seem to get it to go back in and operate right, even when looking at a parts diagram for orientation of the part. I called ruger and they said that when they work on a pc9 now they use a different bolt stop and stake it in. I can see why :)

The bolt stop fell out when I took the gun apart for cleaning, how does it go back in, I can't figure out which way the little spring should point!

What are the high wear parts? Does anyone know the expected longevity of these guns?

I dont think anything will break on these guns, maybe I am naive tut I think these guns would have to be shot thousands and thousands of rounds to even begin to wear out. And when I call ruger they seem to have all parts and are willing to fix them so I dont know what the " parts are impossible...

I have one marked police carbine, it had a scope and no rear site when I got it, I will tell you that is the most accurate short range gun I have, it amazed me how consistently accurate it is. I would trust my life with it, a few times with a new mec gar mag it would choke on hollow points with...

9mm has much better penetration than a 45acp. But NOTHING dies instantly, no matter what you shoot them with, pistols are not death rays, I am a trapper and even a fox does not die instantly from +p 9mm! A cougar is a thin skinned animal and they do die from 9mm so will a black bear and many...

I just picked up a p89 and noticed it shoots single action after the first shot, which I think is cool, are they all double action first shot and then single? Also my p89 says S not decock, yet when you use the lever as a decocker it does drop the hammer safley on the round. How can you tell if...

Thanks Rich

that great Larry H, yep there is something about the older ones, and I got to take it out today and it was very accurate, didn't shoot it scoped yet but so far so good.
