Ruger is steppin' out again..

[howl]

No one should care, but I bought a Glock and really tried to like it. I even made an attempt at that effeminate roll the wrist bit. What a piece of crap.

It's like it never got past the prototype stage. Literally everyone else took the idea, ran with it, and make something better. In terms of firearms history and development, Glock was a milestone. In terms of the state of the art, what a piece of crap. Ruger will surely polish that turd to a high sheen, but it's still an antique prototype.

But that's how it is in America. People will stand next to a rack of Winchester Model 12 and tell you the Remington 870 is the best pump shotgun ever made.

"I'm not convinced it's very important; who ever swaps the grip?"
All those that complain about finger grooves or not, older cracked or beat up frames, dog chewed and all customizable preferences that Magpul will offer eventually.
In my opinion is what Glock Gen 5 should have been.
Time will tell but I think this is a revolutionary and evolutionary concept that will put Ruger over the top.

It’s sharp , and has all the add on parts already added.

I have been wanting something like this but just didn't know it. Well known names at a great price. Hopefully the chassis system will be an improvement , but only time will tell. I've already seen some at $350. Might grab one early before the price starts to creep up.

Some folks don’t care for the glocks trigger.. from my very minute experience I like the s&w and ruger triggers myself..

“Looks like a Glock, shoots like Glock, but when the slide rusts instantly, you’ll know it’s a Ruger.”

That said, I like it and hope they’re good. 👍

The slides are advertised as Nitrided. Shouldn't rust.

I don't like strikers at all, but this pistol appeals in many ways.

$399. Almost same as its clone. Unless it’s a special edition ODT $800 version which can’t be beat. No matter how used, beat up and with 2 “clips”. I know what I’m got.

and you left out "it's a tack driver" and "or back in the safe it goes"
