    Tips on proper use of Sr9c mag loader

    I certainly see the benefits of the UPLULA when you have various manufacters firearms with various size ammo.....but I don't have that much of firearm inventory. That being said, doesn't Ruger include a speed loader with each of it's different firearms requiring a magazine (if bought new)? I'm...

    Tips on proper use of Sr9c mag loader

    I use it more as a 'pull down' loader rather than a 'push down' loader. Works much faster and less fumbly for me this way. I put the first round in as described. Then put the loader on the magazine. Then, I have the magazine/loader rest on something 'solid', and grip the magazine/loader with...

    Finally loosening up after 250 rounds.

    Thanks for posting that target, ArmedinAZ. I'm consistently in the 'pushing' zone at 10 yards with my SR9c. Wore a ~2" hole in a target last Saturday with 50 rounds straight. Was always using the 10 round magazines (my CCW setup). A few flyers (~8), so it's a little bit me, but wondering how...

    Then I guess everyone with a P345 shouldn't enter this challenge? :roll:

    P Series Challenge for June - FINAL WINNERS

    Yeah, what's up with that. :D 10 yards too... :D Hey, wait, that's exactly what I shot last Saturday for the last match.....but ended up at a range that only had 10 yard lanes (and I didn't know it before hand - wasn't on their website), so I didn't post 'em up. Oh, well. Targets long...

    Semi-Auto Forum Pistol Match

    Went to a new range this morning to hopefully get to post up a target for the competition, shooting the SR9c. Unfortunately the range lane length was only 10 yards (and it didn't say that on their website). Didn't feel like driving another 30 minutes to go to another range, as I was already...

    SR9c hits SOCAL(quick range day 6-7)

    OUCH. Makes me feel just a smidgeon better as mine was $449 at Academy, while some of you's been getting even better deals.... Enjoy!

    Ruger Service and light primer hits

    FWIW, the striker will pop forward with an audible click when both the MD and the Striker Blocker are pressed. Noticed this last week when I watched Josh's video on how to get the striker out. My SR9c has never been in for service, I've never had light strikes (yet, and its only seen a few...

    Satisfied SR9 owner

    'Noooo. It can't be.' (said in one of my favorite comedian voices of Howie Mandel). Everyone knows that there aren't any examples of the SR9 that don't exhibit all those problems. :wink: Enjoy the forum! Lots of GREAT people and advice here (although there seems to be a grain of salt...

    Pics of my new Bersa Thunder 380

    Yours is definitely purtier than the one I sold. It was a blued version. I may've kept a stainless model to pass on to the kids (once they were old enough of course). Enjoy it! Post up some targets for the match (I'm hoping to get to the range in a day or two)!!!

    Pics of my new Bersa Thunder 380

    The Bersa Thunder .380 is what I sold to help fund the purchase of my SR9c. It shot well, just not a good fit for me. My only problem with it was getting ammo, even here in Big D. When I went to purchase the SR9c, Academy had a sign that said they were out of .380 ammo. BUT....that same...

    Need a holster for your SR9c that's actually made for it?

    Got the rgrizzleleather.com Town n Country today. Each line to line distance is 1 inch. It's very nice, and very comfortable.

    Ruger SR9 or Glock 17

    FWIW, this is how I purchased. I shopped off and on for almost a year (!) trying different manufacturers and different models from those manufacturers. Tried everything I could at the LGS and several gun shows. New and old alike. The two that felt perfect in hand (both size and ergonomic...

    Power compare: 45 vs. 40 vs. 9mm vs. 380

    Totally agree also Rev. My father swears he needs the .45 stopping power, and goes to great lengths to conceal it (Kimber UC II), even using a ankle holster from time to time. I went 9mm because I can shoot it better, lighter, easier to conceal. About to get my CHL in a month. If the SR9c...
