Well y'all, I was so excited to get my little 9, as a back up and to protect me on those late night runs. I still plan on doing a range report on it, however! I will have to wait for it to come back. I have less than 100 rounds through it.
The problem - wasn't extracting, possible double feeding, the magazine "loosely" held the rounds and it would drop bullets when I pulled the mag out too. This occurred with 115 gr. Federal RN- not so much with my 115 gr. HP Hornady XTP hand loads.
Once when I loaded it with Critical Defense, it refused to go into battery.
Not quite sure what's up with this one- in addition to these issues, it rusts super easy on the slide.
Called Ruger and they whisked her away on a prepaid label, no hassle.
Anyone have experience with Ruger service and how long it takes to get back?
Anyone have this model and experience anything similar?
It got such good reviews, yet one guy I know says most under covers and armored car personnel he knows have had problems with Ruger's semi-autos "You can't move with them, they malfunction" he said.
When I first got it, I did notice quite a bit of play in the action on top of the poly frame. Contrast that with the fact that I also rented one of these before I purchased and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Everything was tight on that one, accurate and loved the trigger and feel. I wonder if I got a lemon, or it just wasn't broken in enough...
