Impresiones de manejo:

http://www.downrange.tv/ruger/specs.htm

Here are my first impressions of the gun:

• The ergonomics are outstanding. The gun is very slim…something I am a huge proponent of in a gun you're going to carry. The flat grip configuration especially works well with my girlie-man hands.

• The SR9 "shoots light." Of course, most striker-fired 9mms shoot light, thanks to an enhanced focus on ergonomics, but the SR9 is exceptional in that arena. This is a gun that made it easy for us to keep running 9mm ball through it all day.

• Two big ole thumbs up for the manual safety! I am a huge fan of manual safties. That's because twice in my life I have looked at a living human being over a set of gun sights, and I have first-hand knowledge of the physiological changes to the person holding the gun. A real plus is a manual safety that mimics the 1911 safety…John Browning, in fact, knew what he was doing.

• The new SR9 fits an existing Glock holster. Smart…very smart! Even my beagle Alf has a Glock holster.

• The sights are excellent. I heard no complaints about the proprietary Ruger front and rear sights. Good clean sight picture; 3 dots on the rear, which I can either take or leave; a night sight option (of course). If I was going to campaign the gun — which I just might — my inclination would be to go to Heinie Straight-Eights, which I'm sure will be quickly available for the SR9.

• The trigger pull is exceptional for a striker-fired gun. I tried as many of the test guns as I could, and all of them fell in the what I think of as a "comfortable" range. My current thinking on triggers is that we as alleged experts have put far too much emphasis on the trigger pull weight, which is really not nearly as important as our ability to pull said trigger. Suffice to say competition ace and regular Michael Bane Blog commenter Patrick Sweeney was running some super fast runs with the SR9 on steel after only one magazine of warm-up.

• Disassembly is a cakewalk. Sadly, no one at Ruger has any idea whether the SR9 is dishwasher safe or not, a stunning lack of testing, if you ask me. Also, it doesn't come in colors.

• The magazine release is too stiff. I was at the factory while the Powers-That-Be at Ruger made the modifications on the production models. I'm looking forward to getting my T&E gun next week, so I'll make sure the changes have been made.

• It's an intelligent platform for the next steps. Although Ruger execs declined to comment, of course a compact and additional calibers are in the design pipeline. With the manual safety and the super slim outline, a compact version of the SR9 has the potential to be a true category killer of a carry gun!

• The price structure is "aggressive." Means the SR9 will be less expensive that its competition.

OVERALL VERDICT — The relatively new management team at Ruger has a stone hit on on their hands, and the polymer-frame striker-fired pistol market has been turned on its head. Can't wait to take this one through GUNSITE!

que paso con la KP345PR ???

[casull454]

Hombre... si es Ruger, será un arma de calidad. Eso está claro.

Pero.....

[citando a: IVAN-HK]California Approved: No
Massachusetts Approved: No

Pero hay una cosa que tengo muy clara: Si no está Approved en California, no me interesa :D

Saludos.

puede que sea por la capacidad del cargador

Es un tema que no tenia del todo claro. En algunos estados de USA sigue vigente que la máxima capacidad del cargador ha de ser 10

[MiguelDi]

Lo que me hace gracia de eso es que seguro que ha hecho que más de uno se vaya a las magnums... :D :D :D

[IVAN-HK]

si solo puedo llevar 10... :D:D:D

pues que sean 10 45 acp o 6 357 mag no??? :D:D:D

un saludo
