Mine is #320-531XX and has a pinned front site, and has been back for a new firing-pin and spring. First 250 rds a least 15-20 lite strikes,cleaned every time it was fired,so far 250-275 rds have fired since it came back.

I feel the same way if my LC9 fails in any way it goes back to Ruger then its gone! I bought it for CCarry not target practice or plinking. If I ever have to pull my weapon in defence of my life or my wife's I want it to FIRE!!! I personally think from reading this forum to many LC9s are going...

I agree, Its compact and easy to conceal and with some practice very accurate for me at 10-15 yards. I would suggest running 100-200 rds thru it before you use it for CC carry.

Ruger Service replaced my firing pin and spring and it looks like they champhered the firing-pin hole. I wonder if the new firing- pin is not longer than the old one, they sent the old one back but I don't want to take the new one out to measure it. Anyway its firing every time now.

Fired 60 rds thru the LC9 today and no problems,so far so good after sending it back for service ,also fired 70 rds thru a new GP-100!! Nice.

H&R 22 nine shot in 1962,shot it a lot and traded for a Blackhawk 357 in 1968,which is when I started reloading.

I agree along with a spare firing-pin and spring :evil:

600 + rds fired in my LC9 and the mag. has never dropped out. I can get a little back and forth movement,but hardly any side to side.

I just ran into that problem last spring with 40 S&W range brass that would not chamber fully in my SpringField XDM. I purchased a EGM chamber checker from Dillon and sorted the brass,which I'll use in my Glock 40 S&W for now. I plan to get a Lee Die later.

The Jury is still out for me, 300 rds fired with lots of lite strikes,sent back to Ruger. After I got it back about 300rds fired no problems yet, and I hope I don't. I like it and want to keep it,if its realiable.

I agree the LC9 is mainly for concealment carry,which it does very well,and accurracy is good and I can get use to the trigger pull,and the price is right. I just want it to GO BANG when my life is on the line. I need a few more rds thru first. I have other handguns for range practice.

I think Ruger has a Big Problem with quality control, I had to send my LC9 back to Ruger for lite strikes,and since I got it back its fired every time 250-275 rds. I would think they would send you a new LC9,they need to spend more time on inspection of parts and final inspection. I have been...

Win. white box,PMC,Remington,Blazer and reloads are what I had lite strikes with. Some fired second time I tried, all lite strikes fired in my Glock 26. They replaced the firing pin and spring and sent the old one back,I would like to measure the new and old one for length but don't want to take...

Jimbo50, My LC9 serial # is 320-53167, test fired at the factory 06/09/11 if this helps. Nice weather today, fired 70 more rds thru the LC9, no problems. Also fired 80 rds thru the Glock 26, 100 rds thru my SpringField XDM 40. Good day at the Range!!!

My LC9 went back to the factory for lite strikes in early Nov. so far its got 250 rds fired with no problems,they replaced the firing pin and spring and it looks like they champered the firing pin hole. It took about 3 weeks turn-around.
