Hi, I bought a new sr9c like 4 weeks ago and didn't had a chance to go to the range until yesterday....this gun is ammazing ,feels good in my hands, conceal nice and shoot even better. I fired 200 rnd and not even a single problem, Im in love with my sr9c and my kp345, ruger in my opinion is one of the best guns out there......I HATE TO SEE PEOPLE TALKING BAD ABOUT THE SR9C SPECIALLY THE ONES THAT DO NOT OWN THE GUN, SAME HAPPENED WHEN THE KP345 FIRST CAME OUT, I HAVE BOTH AND NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEM
 
Ditto on the SR9C. I love the look and feel of this pistol. It shoots like a little demon. No complaints here - about 400 rounds fired so far
 
Gotta get me one of thoes but really haveing a hard time finding in my area! Everytime I see an advertisement for one... They have already been statched up!

Was lucky to find the LCP however.
 
blume even the trigger feels nice in my sr9c, I gess Im a lucky one...... all I did was some cleaning and a little polishing with my dremmel everywhere metal touch metal and thats it..
 
I love my little SR9C also. It had to go back to Ruger but am glad it is back. Like Blume said it is almost the same size as the Sig 230 but eats 9mm and the recoil is nothing. seem the ctr line of bore to hand is great so it shoots well. the P series seemed too high and recoil in the 9mm made the gun rock more. Glad I stumbled across this one at Cabelas when I was looking at Compact 1911's. I did buy a 1911 later but the SR9C went home with me that day.

Plus... you can buy a SR9c and lots of ammo for the price of the Sig 232 with no ammo. If you can find .380.

I do own a Sig 230 Stainless and love the gun too but the Ruiger will be what I carry 75% of the time.
 
Glad you like the SR9c it seems like a nice gun. I do not have one but have held one as I contimplate my next weapon. I do own 2 SR9's. one with 2000plus rounds through it and the second is quickly aproaching the same. I am using the second one in USPSA competition now. I did put a ghost trigger in it and it made all the difference in the world to me. I am a big fan of the SR9's. I will however probably not own the SR9c. No hit on the gun I just want some variety.

Congrats on the new weapon, have fun!!!

Trigger (and everthing else) was great on mine OTB :D
All i've done is shoot it ( when the wife lets go of it long 'nuff :roll: )

Sure wish the trigger was as good on my SR9 8)

Sell one of your 2 fullsize SR9's and buy a SR9c and Walah....Variety! :wink:
 
I love mine! I don't know if mine is a freak or something, but, the trigger is scary light! I would guess 3.5- 4 lbs.

I don't think it has a funky trigger mine shoots really well. Recoil is mild, gun is accurate, feeds well no jams yet after 200rds. Did have one primer failure but I beat the devil out of it and it wouldn't fire. I then put it in my Camp 9 with the monster hammer and it still didn't fire. So it wasn't the pistols problem. I believe if someone goes out and tries the SR9c they will buy it. Ruger has a real winner.

Same here...I love mine and I agree w/ the trigger, it's very light.
 
Have to agree with everybody, have had my SR9C for a a little while and just love the hell out of it, about 600 rounds down range and not one hickup. performed well above my exspectation, nice grouping and very accurate with little recoil. It has one he spot to be in my holster for CC and HD to keep the riff raff at bay. :twisted:
 
I'd like to find one - no one seems to have any around here. I have had an SR9 for a long time and it's been a great gun. My only knock on it is that the grip is a bit bulky for me to carry concealed.

I see allot of them at Bass Pro in the mall.

I LUV mine also
 
I'm still holding for OD green to match my fullsize. :( I would like to handle and shoot one just to try it out for now.
 
I like mine a lot also. Had a few things to iron out, and Ruger did that for me. Three week round trip. Gun shoots accurately, ~250 rounds with no burps of any kind. Size is nice for CCW. My trigger is not so good; long and raspy. Very close in size to my Glock 26. Pretty soon will do comparison with CZ P-01, which is also very popular right now. The Ruger is an excellent buy for the money.

Its one of my 3 absolute keepers, not for sale, not trading material, will not lone out, no need to ask - might let you hold it & mite even let you shoot it (if i know you REAL well) :lol:

Although smaller than an SR9, the CZ P-01 is larger than the SR9C or a Glock 26 but it is my favorite compact pistol. Those others are closer to sub-compacts. The RAMI is the sub-compact CZ and it is slightly smaller than both of those. It is hard to judge these things as some has more to do with feel.
 
Hey SR9C owners, what types of setups and holsters are you using to conceal carry this pistol? I hear a lot of about kholsters and kytec plastics being good to use? But what are all of you strapping on?

First of all, welcome to the forum. I carry my SR9c in my Crossbreed Supertuck for my SR9. Very quality holster. Look em up and I bet you find a lot of good reviews. Very comfortable to wear also.
 
Great pic Texasgunner. Shows the 'brickiness' of the XD (IMO) compared to the SR9 and SR9c. Glad I did the SR9c :wink:

I bought (waiting for actually) a rgrizzleleather.com Town & Country IWB in black for my SR9c.
 
Hey thanks for the welcome note and the help on the holster, planning my first purchase of the SR9C and this is information is greatly appreciated. will be looking into the two holsters mentioned above.

Has anyone heard of the Minotaur MTAC IWB holster? I hear they are slightly more high quality than the crossbreed super tuck.

Also, forgive me as I don't have much education in IWB holsters, but can they be worn at the 8 O'clock position or are they strictly 9 and 3 position holsters. I am a left handed shooter, and I am thinking of placing the pistol at the 8 O clock position just to the left side of my rear.
 
Kholster works for me. My SR9c has a very good trigger and it seems to be getting better after only 250 rounds down range (no hiccups at all). It is surprisingly accurate (I regularly shoot a 1911, 3 screw in .357, and a Mark II). Since I intend for it to be my primary carry, I don't think I'll alter the trigger bar, at least for a while. My only problem now is that it is my only 9mm... and my brain says I need at least two of every caliber I reload for! :lol:

Not a fan of the P345? Too bulky? Actually, that might attract my attention as well...

Cant say a "fan" but still a nice looking gun 8)
I admit i have never gotton over the looks of the couple P89's i had :oops:
The SR9 brought me back to being attracted to Ruger simi autos :D
YES, looks do matter to me :shock:
 
Texasgunner,
I use to dislike the looks of most of the P series pistols too, but they have really, really grown on me, and I actually like the looks of them now. Note: I don't own one yet, but I might have P93 as early as later this week. BTW, looks matter to me too. I wouldn't purchase a firearm that I couldn't stand to look at.

Awwww, they are'nt THAT bad but just have no "eye" appeal to me :roll:
Course i once bought my wife a shiney nickeled Taurus PT92 with gold trim & pearl grips -- Prettiest thing you ever saw but neither of us could hit the ground with it :lol:

I've never really liked the P series 'looks', even though they fit me well in the hand. Then came the SR9 and then obviously the 'c', which I jumped on, as it's a great looking pistol, IMO.

It's quite possible to do the .40 and the .45 in the SR (and even 'c' frame). The Kimber Ultra Carry II is within a tenth of an inch (IIRC) in every dimension compared to the SR9c, for example.
