Update: I continued to shoot the M&P 22. Once a few hundred higher velocity rounds were fired, it now shoots anything.

No single gun is perfect IMHO- any gun you rely on for self defense needs to be one you are very familiar with. It has to be comfortable shooting on the range, AND relatively cost effective to shoot. I think a 9 mm is a good choice in these respects. A 380 "palm pistol", is not, again, my...

I own a S&W MP22- bought it because it was a service-sized pistol and I wanted my wife to be somewhat familiar because I also have a Ruger P95- same size but opposite safety (up is "safe" on the S&W). The MP22 was a problem w/ FTE's from day 1. I had been warned, so I tried "hi-velocity"...

I have only ONE Ruger so far- but I absolutely LOVE my P95 Stainless. I am new to the handgun scene, but have become a pretty decent shot, thanks to this gun. Totally reliable, feels right in my hand, and built like a tank. I paid $318 NIB- good deal!!

I was referring to the NEW SR22. The S&W MP22 is what I bought.

I bought my first handgun- a P-95- in October. Every time I shoot it (I did today) I am more sure that I bought the absolute right gun for me. It is dead-reliable, feels right in my hand, and I am even hitting most of what I shoot at!! Last week I bought a S&W 22- and I was surprised at how...

I usually carry my P95 in a fanny pack- or as they call it a "Select Carry Pistol Pouch." 5.11 Tactical. The color contrasts "fool" the eye to thinking it is a small pack about the size of a wallet, but, the barrel fits up into the "wings" of the pack, concealing the big P95. Wide nylon...

I don't think you have given a chance, yet. My first time out with my new P95, I had a few problems- so I put a little white grease on the nose of the first buillet, first cartridge for two mags, then shot 200 rounds. The issues stopped and it fires perfectly. The lube seemed to have helped...

The rear sight is supposed to be "adjustable for windage"- whatever that means. The pistol shots left. I want to move the rear sight right- and I can't seem to move the rear sight.

I THINK the (discontinued) P-90 and the (current) P-95 are basically the same gun, except the P-90 is chambered for 45 ACP. I just bought a NEW P95 stainless 9mm for $310 out the door, 2 X 10-rd mags. Fin Feather and Fur (local big box outdooor store) has the P-95 SS 9mm on sale for $ 299...

I just picked up my first handgun- Ruger P95 SS/Black w/ 2X10-round mags. I was surprised that it was SO much easier to operate the slide than my son's S&W 1911 was when it was new. I spent about an hour taking it apart and re-assembling. Seems like a quality piece, especially for the...
