Who are the P-nuts around here? 8)

After a quick look around here, guys, it's quickly become apparent that A) it's gonna be fun to hang around here, and B) some of you guys are obsessed with the P series guns like I'm obsessed with 1988-91 Honda Hawk GT motorcycles....

In other words, from what I can tell, the P series has a little bit of cult status? Doesn't get a lot of attention from the masses, but those in the know are really enthusiastic? Do I have that right? Because that's what Hawk GT owners are like, and I've met many of my closest friends through that bike. :)

So, yeah, I bought a P90 yesterday. And, just as with my motorcycle, I can't leave well enough alone. :lol: It already has Hogue grips, but I want to find wood grips for it. I see some people here have swapped out the decocker for another one from different Ruger models. If Ruger compatibility is anything like Honda's bikes, this is gonna be fun...

I've had an LCP for a while but there's not much you can do to it (well, the blueing wore off the slide in spots where I cleaned off some rust - I carry it IWB - and I'd LOVE to get a nickel slide for it, but I don't know where I can get one!). Looking forward to a little light customization of this P90 as I get to know it better!
 
Hello Dagus, I love the P-series pistols. Here's a picture of my P90 and my 9mm P94, both are safety/decocker models and both have been 100% reliable. They are bone stock except for night sights on the P94 and the Hogue grips on both. I carry 124 gr. Federal HydraShok in the 9mm and 230 gr. Speer Gold Dot in the .45. I'm sure that you will grow to love your P90 as well.

Hello Dagus! You will find there are quite a number of P90 Enthusiasts around. The P90's are great, stock right out of the Box. They are like Motorcycles. What you want to do with them, for personal satisfaction, is pretty broad.

My KP90DC has an Engraved Slide, Metalife coated Frame, Cryopro Barrel, Action Job by Teddy Jacobson, Trijcon Sights, and Hogue Grips.

I have a few handguns, and a couple in .45 ACP. My most favorite is my P90 in 45 ACP! Accurate. easy shooting. Fits my big mitts quite well, and is just a hoot to shoot. Nary a glitch in 8 years...
 
I'm a P-NUT for sure!! Welcome just be warned it is hard to stop at one.
 
welcome to the p90 family......it will serve you well for years!
i have pachmayr grips which are big but grip like hell, EFK ported barrel and EFK recoil spring......

Hogue makes wood grips for the "P" series: http://www.hoguestore.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=27_65

I'm pretty happy with my P90. it was a blued manual safety model, but I found a complete, stainless, decocker top end (and most of the receiver parts) on an auction site. I bead blasted the stainless slide and added Meprolight sights. I swapped out the blue slide stop for a stainless one and installed a P95 trigger. The factory grips were replaced with some Uncle mike's. I also replaced all my metal mag followers with plastic ones.

If i should want to, it's pretty easy to covert it back to it's stock form.
