??? 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?

Regardless, anytime a manufacturer sends you a notice saying DON'T,,, generally its gotten bad enough to do so. Whether we like it or not, be careful. When something goes wrong, the consequences can be too great, and happen to quickly. Sounds like you had one already.

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Used mine at two IDPA matches and a couple of other range trips.  I've put a few hundred rounds through since the recall was initially announced, and carried it pretty much every day.

Not one single problem.  Gun goes bang only when it's supposed to.

My only concerns with the recall are:

  • How long will it take to complete?
  • Will the trigger improve with the new parts?

Other than that, I'm good.

All I want to know is:

RUGER where the hell is my box?


If I go to one more gun shop with a stack of SR9's they just got back I am going to hand deliver mine.

This is a load of freash steaming BS if I have ever seen it, especially when I know for a fact that I signed up for the recall well before two of the places that have already got theres back. Hell two shops even had used guns sent in that are back already.

That's discouraging, but I'm not surprised. Maybe DRTV could forward some of these comments and complaints to Ruger. I tried sending them a letter and never even got a response. 
I bought my SR9 in mid March and signed up for the recall the day it popped up here on DRTV. How can I NOT have areturn box yet?
I don't care how much I like that pistol, I'm not really interested in buying ANYTHING from Ruger again. If they really have processed all of those dealer stock first...what a load of crap!

When I was looking for another high capacity 9mm I originally thought of getting a second SR9 but this whole fiasco has soured me on Ruger.  I bought a FN FNP9 and have found a new true love.  Great ergonomics, nice trigger (DA/SA) and very accurate.  Too bad it's not as thin as the SR9.

I do recall seeing someone respond in one of the SR9 threads that he had gotten a box.  So far that is the only iindividual that I've heard of.

I suspect that once the trigger gets fixed my SR9 will be looking for a new home.  Kind of pity as I really wanted this gun to work for me.
