I've had long guns around but never a handgun, so I'm looking for a home defense/occasional carry pistol, something affordable to start off with. After some research into what would suit that purpose, I put that up against the inventories of some local shops and it came down the the SR9E vs the Secirity 9. The SR9E is $20 cheaper but comes only one mag, so an additional mag puts it right back around the same price as the Security9.
I've handled M&P Shields, various Glocks, and am just interested in getting something a little less expensive but with a similar feel to those. Both the 9E and Seciruty9 seem ideal, I'm just looking for reasons to go one way or another on one of them. I prefer the look of the 9E in that there is less beveling/contour on the slide, but superficialites aside I'd like to hear from some experienced Ruger folks if the trigger feel is better on the Secirury9 etc etc. Which would you go for in my position?
I have no basis of comparison and am going on advice to get stared in the pistol world. Thanks in advance for any help!
