I have always been a huge Ruger fan, ever since I got my first .45 Blackhawk back in 1972. When I needed to get a .380 for CCW, because the People's Democratic Republic of New Jersey wouldn't accept my SR22, I didn't really like the choices available (at the time) from Ruger. IF the Security-380 had been released earlier, it would have been at the top of my list!
I like the barrel length and size and weight for bullet performance and controllability. The reduced forward slide and cocking ears should make racking the slide easy from either position. The fiber optic front sight and accessory rail round out a pretty complete package.
At 72 years of age, I am no "sheepdog". My thoughts had always been, IF the possibility of CCW became a reality in New Jersey, my SR22 would be my weapon of choice for the purely last line of defense role that it would be used. With New Jersey's .380 minimum caliber requirement, I have been forced to add that caliber to my collection of firearms in my two favorite calibers of .22 Rimfire and .45 Colt.
I look forward to the chance to check one out personally, and will probably add it to my Browning 1911-380 for use in the CCW role.
