Limp wristing could be the issue, but I have to say, clean/oil the magazines inside. My young son was having FTF, I thought he was limp wristing, but it did it to me too. I realized that the magazines were too dry inside, probably not allowing the follower to slide smoothly. I lubed it an...

I forgot to ask you... did you experience any issue with the slide catch? Just wondering since the slide catch is the only apparent difference in the frames.

Those are good news. I have been thinking about this for weeks, and I am happy with those results. 9mm is cheaper than 380ACP, and for now, I am interested in reloading 380ACP, just never tried reloading anything before.

Please let us know how the shooting goes. When I put both slides and frames together I didn't check the slide stop or slide catch. I will have to look next time. Thank you.

That is a great idea. I will definitely check the manuals for part numbers. Thank you.

This might be a stupid question but I want to ask anyways. There are some of you here that test a lot, and have many years of experience. I do have a Security 380, and a Security 9. I believe that the frames are exactly the same quality, talking about the frame rails. Do you think that it is...

Ooops. I didn't know that actually the name for the nylon polymer used by Ruger to make those guns is actually zytel. My apologies. My bad. I bet I made you all laugh for a while. lol

I agree with Magpouch. It is nothing but proof that it has been shot, but wear? not at all. Keep lubed and it will run just fine for a long time. By the way, 2000 or 3000 rounds are nothing to these guns now a days. You can go to a range and ask if they have one for rent, then ask how many...

I finally had a chance to shoot my Security 380 about 2 weeks ago. My first session I had several fails to eject/feed. I thought my son was limp wristing but it happened to me too. After realizing it was bone dry, I lubed it and had a 2nd session the next day with no malfunctions. Very pleased...

I bought one a few days ago, and I have not shot it yet. I realized I haven't purchased enough 380 ACP ammo to test and enjoy a day in the woods with my son. Mine came with a 10 round magazine and a 15 round magazine. I like the serrations in the slide better than those in the Security 9. It is...

My dad had a Browning Hi Power for 26 + years, and he never changed the recoil spring. The only thing I remember he ever changed was one magazine. He shot it occasionally but never needed new recoil springs. I would think that the newer pistols have better springs than those made back in 1935-1950.

P95 frames are polymer. No Zytel or any other cheap low quality material about P95. The reason I bought the Security 9 was because of the grip (I have short fat fingers), but I wish it was built like the P95. The finish in my P95 is still great, and that is my softest shooter.

The magazine release needs to be pushed forward instead of pushed in. I have fat fingers and I have never had an issue with the magazine release in my P95. I have the newer model though, the P95PR15. I don't know if there is any difference between the old and the newer model.

I know your post was meant to be funny. but I just wanted to point out that the P95 does not qualify for a frame swap because it is not modular. I doubt Ruger will ever provide frames to be replaced on the new guns. The finish is not that great since they started the EC9S. Black Oxide is not...

I have the LCP Max, the LC9(hammer fired like the LC380), and the Security 9 (which has the same trigger as the Security 380 and LCP Max). Knowing the trigger in the LC9 being the same as in the LC380, I can tell you from my experience that the Security 380, and the LCP Max both have a superior...
