Was in the market for a reasonably compact 9mm and this one really grabbed my attention. My buddy picked one up about a month ago and loves his.
Very cool pistol for the money, it really fits my hand well. For a range/truck/nightstand or even winter carry gun I think one could do a whole lot worse. Hope to shoot it next weekend and I’ll post some results. As I said, so far I’m really liking what I see.  Attached File Attached File |

I think Ruger has a good one on their hands. I never could get the warm and fuzzies about the American line. Even the Compact didn’t do much for me. I really like the size and grip on the S9 though.

How does it compare to others in your opinion?trigger,grip,weight,etc.. I'm very interested in the Security 9 as well. I'm concerned about possible corrosion.

Almost like nitride or even a Duracoat type coating. May not be, but it’s tough. Barrel finish is just bluing. I don’t think you’ll have much to worry about from what I see. But time will tell. For $300-$340 it’s hard to beat. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Trigger is great. Hard to describe, but just a bit of takeup, a wall, then it breaks. Weight is almost identical to a Glock 19, like within an ounce. The grip is where it shines for me. I have medium sized hands and it’s just perfect. I wouldn’t change it if I could. Not trying to sound like a salesman, it’s just a well-executed gun for its price point. I don’t like the safety, but it’s not really obtrusive. You can really just ignore it. Sights are meh but I’m sure options will exist soon. Factory sights will be easy to replace. Finish on the slide seems really tough. Almost like nitride or even a Duracoat type coating.

Range trip today - fired about 100 rounds of Federal 115 grain ball, Remington 115 grain JHP and Monarch 124 grain JHP.
Absolutely zero malfunctions. Slide locked back on all empty mags, all rounds fed and functioned perfectly as expected. I need to adjust the sights just slightly to suit my shooting habits, but that’s on me. |

It just looks like a beefed up lc9s, which I like. Just my 2 cents, but Ruger has the best option of a thumb safety. It is small enough not to be obtrusive but you can engage it without any issue. I had a S&W Shield ( and Bodyguard) and hated the safety as it was not easy to access. I guess I am used to the 1911 type safety. I don't know how Ruger is able to sell their guns for so little,compared to other makers. Ruger makes a tough pistol that will last a good long time. I am getting more interested in these pistols all the time.
How many mags do these come with? |

Just got one. I am very impressed with it. The trigger on mine is very good. There is nothing even close at it's price. The only con to it is the sights, they suck and so far there is no real upgrade worth getting.

Have you all shot yours yet? My uncle got one that groups about 6" at 20yards with several different shooters. Ruger looked at it and said nothing wrong with it to use black hills pistol ammunition...

Love the one I bought recently.
I have carried G19's for years and as a duty weapon. I like this better...the trigger is awesome compared to a Glock. Shoots to point of aim and $200 cheaper than a Glock. |

Just picked one up at my LGS. I paid $315. Not as great as some online prices, but its out of stock everywhere, plus shipping and FFL brings it close or over $315 anyway. On my way out to the back 40 to give it a whirl.

I just picked up one today and find I shoot it better offhand than rested. Accuracy is pretty good with factory ammo. I put a drop of oil in the hole in the back of the slide and the trigger got better! Best $256 I have spent on a gun so far.

what's the current street price on these?
I don't need another G19/P-07 sized pistol but I've yet to hear a bad thing about these. Guys who've had them for a little while have you had any issues with yours? |

Mine is my new truck gun. $268 at Academy. Have about 300 rounds of various brands/bullet types through it no hiccups.
I also like the grips as I have medium sized hands. Also own P95, SR9/45/E, and EC9s so very familiar w Ruger pistols. Bought a couple of extra mags and a leather OWB pancake holster as well. I think it shoots much like the SR series. |
