I shot it before ruger released it and i liked it even though im not a fan of 9mm. Very light and handles well. At 25 yards put them all in the bullseye with a nice grouping. I recomend one, plan on getting one when the demand dies down and employees can get them.

handled my buddies, and it shoots like a champ, lets put it this way, I cant shoot for crap (6-8 spreads on a full 13 rd mag with the 45) but with this beauty I was putting em in 2-3.5 inch groups...the gun shoots far better then I do.

Sr9

It took about 500 rounds before my trigger got fully broke in and lost its gritty feeling.
Am now at about 2500 rounds and very happy.
I have been waiting for an aftermarket trigger kit from one of our sponsers to be announced. Guess I better wait until recall is taken care of and start on the new trigger.

Remember its safer to have a gun in the house than a liberal.

Shoot often and straight.

My Dad has an SR-9 that I have fired a few times. It shoots real good. My wife love's to shoot it too.

I rented one at the local range and was not impressed. It shot well enough, but the trigger pull was about a mile long and it felt like squeezing a sponge at firing pin release. Also, I didn't care for the feel of it, it seemed cheap; but as I said, it shot well and didn't malfunction.

Havent shot one yet, but like the way it feels and I have heard nothing but good things about it. The price tag is nice too.
