I have been buying Rugers for the last 50+ years, I have seen a lot of models come and go over that period of time. As with any other company Ruger's motivation is sales. Most recently they discontinued the SR series guns. In my opinion a bad decision, the SR series guns, were durable, reliable, very easy to carry and came in 9mm, .40 S&W, and .45ACP. It appears that they were replaced by the Security 9, presently only available in 9mm, and with lower capacity than the SR series, and with Glock plastic sights.
Perhaps I am just old, but change is not always for the best, I have several 9mm guns of various makes and my Ruger SR (9e) 9mm is my favourite.
I had an American and just never liked it as much as the 9E.
Just my two cents..
