Ruger Max-9 . . . MERGED THREADS

[djw54]

Ruger comes out with its P365 variant. But with optic cut! (to fit RomeoZero) on same day as Sig releases its P365X (like the XL, but short slide).

And they beat S&W to the punch too! They are likely to announce their Shield Plus tonight.

I like the specs and price on the Ruger Max-9.

I'll have to check this one out.

Squared up LC9...

 

[Rumrunner]

Looks like a winner. Almost identical in size with the LC9.

Looks good on paper, but finding anything Ruger makes that I'm interested in at a local vendor is pretty hard these days, oh and I check about once a month. Not going the auction site route right now. I'd rather handle something new before buying it. Same goes for the other manufactures. Out of Stock is a pretty popular availability these days.

I'm in if you ever will be able to find one. Maybe in a year or two

I'm not sure where you live, but this place has different locations: https://www.sportsmans.com/shooting...-32in-black-oxide-pistol-121-rounds/p/1693473

First think I noticed in the link was Colion Noir.... wonder how much they had to pay him for that?
Not being negative.... I'm a fan.

Max 9 is +P rated but NOT a steady diet of it.

There is a SW near me. They were in stock yesterday for order but quickly sold out at nearly full MSRP. I'll still wait a year or two, if the panic/shortage ever ends.

Ruger comes out with its P365 variant.

Or a Glock 43 variant.

No doubt they'll sell once anybody can get them.

Im not impressed with Ruger's habit of constantly discontinuing popular guns. Just when the SR series hit its stride they threw it overboard. The LC9S vanished for a long time and now is back all of a sudden. I wish they would stick with a gun and just refine it instead of starting from scratch every 5 years or so.

 

[hittman]

Offering "new" stuff is apparently what keeps people coming back and stirs interest.

If a gun were really that popular they would simply improve/change it and not scrap the whole process for new/improved.

Yeah the P series were tanks and workhorses but other brands quickly passed them up. Same with other lines that followed I'd suspect.

I may be the exception and not the rule but after having P series for a few years, I moved to things like the CZ75 and Sig P220 and Glock 22. Sold the P series guns at that time and never looked back.

Right now anything sells that's available. I think Ruger wised up when they saw how many Taurus G2c's that are being sold. They needed an EC9s or LC9s that held more rounds. 7+1 is short on what people are looking for.

Why they completely ditched the SR 9, SR 40, & SR 45, I will never understand.

I was happy to buy two new SR9 pistols in late 2019 at giveaway prices. ($300 & $250).

Now I’m tempted to buy a Max-9 for MSRP at my LGS.
