What is going on with the SR9?

[jaybet]

Hi guys , well I heard alot of up's & downs about the new sr-9 . But i've got to say that I think it is a good pistol.!! I have a nerve problem with my left leg so I had to look for a light pistol, tryed glock but to big & heavy. Saw the sr - 9 , tryed it . I think ruger has come up with a good pistol, just needs to be refind a little, but that my opion. To me it shoots good & feels good in MY hand. Don't knock it till you try it ..

No argument with your assessment keith...I really like the pistol- it feels good, shoots good, all that. BUT....
It ain't right, right out of the box. It's just disappointing to buy something new from a company known for reliability and get a lame duck.

jay bethel,  it's just like a fishing rod or car etc....  you have to set it up for you ,the way you want it to be ... Alway remember to try different ammo , paint the front sight so you can see it better or what ever you want to do it's yours to do with as you please...

I wonder how many other pistols would fire if dropped with the saftey off? I always carry my SR9 with the safety on............great pistol..........

I myself would worry about any loaded gun shooting my ass if I dropped it. Then again I am also a clean freak and pefectionist so if I did drop it and it didn't shoot me I would be more worried about scratches and dirt.

The one thing I do see as assinine with this recall is how so many dealerships guns have been already repaired and sent back yet here I sit. Ruger should worry about people who own the gun before places that sell it. Rushing to fix a recalled gun isn't going to help them sell. Kinda pisses me off when a dealer has gotten twenty back and I haven't even got a box for my one yet.

Economics cody, economics.  Dealers can't sell a defective product...if the defective product doesn't sell the dealer can't order more and Ruger can't ship more to sell.  Once they have your $$$$$ they don't care as much about you as they do future customers.  Once I buy, they care less about me.  Once this is all sorted out customer service will get better.

I am beginning to think that if I don't get MY box soon, I'm going to take a long drive and throw my SR9 through Ruger's front window. I got mine in early March and it's been as handy as a hockey puck for most of that time.
RUGER CAN YOU HEAR ME???(Capitals intentional) I'm getting tired of this fellers. That's nearly $500 tied up in a rock with sights on it.
If they REALLY took care of a bunch of dealer stock before those of us who plunked down our money on their new super design...shame on them. If that's the case I think DRTV should seriously consider their Ruger sponsorship arrangement...how well is Ruger serving the DRTV community?
There I go again. Take my $500 and leave me with a pistol that's as useful as an open end wrench, and I start bitchin'...what a jerk. I should be excited that I'll be getting a new trigger someday and, even better, a FREE MAGAZINE.
If Ruger was really interested in their customers they would have already sent me the magazine so I could put it on my desk next to the SR9 paperweight...it would make a great paperclip PEZ dispenser!

I know, I know I just was hoping that Ruger would pull through for us like they have before.

It just really bums me out to think I stayed loyal to them since my 10/22, Mini Thirty, SR9 and LCP just like I stayed loyal to GM with my 20 or so Camaro's, GTO and my 2007 Corvette. I have watched GM go downhill at a steady pace but didn't expect a company like Ruger to follow suit.

Oh well there decisions on how to prioritize the SR9 recall will bite them in the ass. I love the SR9 and was going to buy a all black one to match my LCP but doubt I will now.

I'm still shooting my SR9 until I get my box. I don't use it at the range, don't want to scare anyone. Shoot it at the farm and ponds......great pistol, like it better than my Glock...........and I keep the saftey on until I'm ready to shoot my target............a little common sense goes along ways ............

  What is wrong with the SR9 any way they said don't shot it . But my lady shots it on the weekends. It blew off the the table at Ben Averys and did not fire off. It flew three feet and fell two feet scared the living **** out of some poor fela. but I picked it up and shot it again and handed it back to my Lady. should I not let her shoot it?
