SR45!

[DA_TriggR4Ruger]

This gun should hold at least 12+1 or 13+1 if judging by comperable models (Glock 21/Springfield XD/S&W M&P)

The Glock has a much wider grip and I am "guessing" that like mentioned by a previous post, the rounds are not staggered quite as much in the Ruger, so that they can fit in mag and grip housing. 10 rounds will be a perfect balance in this size pistol I think.

Think about it, a 1911 gives you a thinner grip, single stack mag and 7-8 rounds....a Glock gives you a big fat grip, double-stack mags and 13 rounds, and the Ruger grip will fit right in between, as will the mag capacity.

I was really hoping for a "c" version. Looks like I may end up having to get an XDm or XDs.

Did the 9c and the 40c come out at the same time as its "big brother"?

"c" versions of the SR9 and SR40 were released months after the Service sized handguns. I would expect a SR45c somewhere between Shot and July.

That makes a lot of sense.

I was at the store, debating between an XDm 45 compact and a S&W .45 compact, and all I could think was, "Man, I hope that guy's right about a SR45c coming out soon". I really like Rugers, so I'm crossing my fingers.

Any of these guns that are already produced, if you want one you better get it. They are very difficult to find these days.

I bet that the mag is not that wide, so the rounds are not staggered that much. I could see a c version holding 6+1.

Ruger will need to do better than that. The Glock 36 single stack holds 6+1

With the 40c holding 9+1 I could see a 45c holding 7+1

Just saw one at LGS. $409+tax.

I bought one last week. It is an SR in every way. Shoots well with good recoil. I'm enjoying it.

No they came out over a year later, but I got mine for $450 "Factory Sale" price. I'm sorry I didn't buy the full size at the same time.

Who notes so many guns, so little money...sigh.
