I was looking through my old Ruger catalogs, and in the 1993 catalog they show the new Ruger P93. But, it is not the metal frame P93, it is a polymer framed P95! Did Ruger put out the 95 with 93 on it, or was the metal framed 93 out first? I have never seen a polymer framed P gun with the 93 designation. Can any of you guys throw some light on this?

Just looked in the 1994 catalog, and they show the P93 as metal, and don't show the polymer framed 95 in any form!

In fact the P95 is not listed in the catalog until 1997! Now, I know Ruger was notorious for introducing models and them not showing up till years later, but the 93 marked P95 in the 1993 catalog really has me confused!
