I have a new Ruger 9MM SP101 . It was been less than impressive when I got it. The SA pull was heavier than the DA pull? First gun I have ever had that on. I put a Wilson combat spring kit in it and the trigger problems were fixed , smooth SA & DA and only half the pull weight. BTW the gun is 100% with all of the factory loads and reloads but it shoots everything I have tried low and left except the WW 115, good windage and only 2" low.
I sent a message to the Ruger customer service asking about the accuracy and POA issues. I got a response to call customer service and discuss the issues and see if a RMA should be sent. Customer service person was quite nice and knowledgeable about the SP 101 9MM.
I told him of the accuracy issues and POA issues and he said the gun was made to be a 7 yard gun shooting 124 grain ammo and when it left the factory it was test fired to shoot POA at 7 yards with 124 grain factory ammo. He offered to send me an extra front sight and cross pin so I could experiment with my current sight and if I removed "too much" front sight I would have an extra to put on the gun. Found the person to be quite helpful.
I think some work with hand loads and 124 grain bullets may bring the gun around. I still wish it would group better but it is considered accurate enough for self defense.
