I'm a PROUD new owner of a Ruger P-85 Mk11. I've leaned toward Ruger most of my life. My 1st one was in 1999, it was brand new GP 100 6-shot w/ a 4" barrel. I've had other .357's, but for the 1st time I began to run .38cal ammo instead. The size and weight of the gun really compensated the recoil beautifully, unlike the sharp kick with .357 rounds. And honestly I think the differences between .38 & .357 ammunition is very slim. I lost very little power in that switch, but heavily decreased the recoil and report from the gun. I'd even throw some .38 buckshots in there sometimes with every other round being a .38 then a buckshot. If I missed you with the round, the spray on the next shot is going to catch you! Then I broadened my horizons and acquired a Mini-14
next. Tactical, with the pistol grip and folding stock. Light brown wooden stock with a mirror like stainless steel for the barrel and parts. I put a leopold scope on it and a Harris bipod. I had 10 30 round clips which I clipped together jungle tape styl, loaded with High Velocity full metal jacket .233 rounds. I can't fathom why that rifle isn't standard issue in the military and even used by snipers on shots up to 3/4 of a mile. I used a friend's suppressor one time and went long distance shooting up NH. For the first time I zeroed in my scope at a distance over 250-300 yards and then something happened that I still can't get my head around…I started hitting shots on target at 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile..I had never shot that distance in my life. I brought the groups into about 4-5 inches at 1/2 mile. With the suppressor off though, I was missing a 3ft x 3ft target every 4 out of 5 shots. So once we left of course I was OBSESSED with getting a suppressor! Problem being is that I dont have a Class 3 license and a suppressor carries up to a life sentence in MA if you get caught with one unlicensed.
SO THIS IS MY QUESTION; What could I possibly use to get the same results I did with the suppressor on???
Also, what choices do I have to mount accessories on my P-85 that bare of rails of course. Does anyone make a add on rail that's held on by the trigger guard? What are you guys thoughts on these things?????

. Funny cause that's all I could come up with as far as rails/accessories. I also ordered a laser sight with the trigger guard mount last week. It's curved so you can mount it at the top of the guard and it will lay flush on the curve under the front of the lower. I f**kin hate laser sights though! Basically a movie prop as far as I'm concerned..if your training at 25ft and zero the laser in at that length then you need to use it sticky situation, you will hit your mark dead on without aiming by painting the target with the laser…if he between 20' to 30' away! If you mis-gauge the length and the targets over 30 feet away, your laser is no longer zeroed in dead balls like at 25'! So you guess the distance, take out your Alan wrench, and zero it in on the active shooter, and take his ass down right??? Lol
