Gun Descriptions

features a powerful striker spring for positive ignition without a heavier trigger pull. Barrel cam distributes recoil forces over a longer period of time to reduce felt recoil. Safe, easy takedown with no tools or trigger pull required.

The Ruger  SR9 is perfectly sized to be comfortable and controllable with a slim, ergonomic grip and narrow slide. Featuring a short reach from the backstrap to the trigger, the SR9 creates a comfort level that will challenge any standard-sized, striker-fired pistol available today. The structurally rigid, recoil-reducing, glass-filled nylon frame and stainless steel slide combine to create a low-maintenance, rugged and reliable handgun. The SR9 packs all of the features required by today’s most demanding shooters, including modern blocker, trigger safety, magazine disconnect, plus a visual and tactile loaded chamber indicator.
