Ruger just released a new style pistol in 9MM and 45ACP. Looks interesting.

Good looking gun from a reputable company.

Nice looking gun, but I don't think I'd ever own a full size auto loader in 9MM....

 

[Ohiosam]

It does sound promising

Its like the article says, looks like a mix between a vp9 and a walther m2. I have a bad taste in my mouth from ruger with the problems I had with the sr9. And that thing is
30 oz! Way too heavy for a polymer gun for my taste.

Why not?

Why not?

To me the 9's are for concealed and if I'm going after a full frame handgun it's going too be a .45....

Agreed. 31 ounces for the .45 and it only has a 10+1 capacity. WAY to damn heavy. Did Ruger make that pistol out of lead?

I am a not a fan of plastic "toy" guns without real safeties. Especially $579.

The only safety required is between your ears. Don't put you finger on the trigger until you are ready to fire.

Keep your booger hook off the bang switch.

The real safety is between your ears, or should be.

Ha, see I have been beat to this valid position.

Concealed carry and duty beg for polymer pistols.

Whether it be ultralight ccw or light, high capacity duty pistols.

Also, if SHTF the high capacity Glock would be chosen over any single stack, all metal pistol.
