I have been looking for a cheaper 9 to carry when i travel. The gun is going to get scratched and be outdoors a lot due to camping.
Just curious what some of you think of it.
Not knocking the Ruger in any way, but have you considered the CZ P-10c? I have been seeing them for only about $30 more and the reviews have been really good.
I wouldn't go with the Ruger when you can pickup a used Glock 19 at every street corner in America for around 3 Bill's. Street proven for three decades, holster and parts availability galore and cheap. You won't be disappointed.
I have never seen a used Glock 19 for $300. They must be in that magic gun shop with the new $320 P10c.
Hit the pawn shops and stay out of the gun shops. Nothing magic about it. They always have a bushell basket of them.
