I like the 9mm slide action rather than a revolver. The slide absorbs the shock better in my opinion. It is a matter of personal choice.
Vic We our fond of the ruger 89 & 90 series in the 9mm. Slide action with a large clip (15 rounds).
Prices are going up already so it is best not to put it off.
Agreed. Ruger makes very good guns. They are not SIGs but Rugers are like pickup trucks. They are not always pretty, reliable as hell and a bargain for the price. I have an old P85 9 mm and i can tell you Ruger semi-autos work every time. Any type of 9 mm ammo even bad reloads. Ruger’s never had any rust issues that SIGs had.
i am checking out the new Ruger SR9 carry (nice) 9mm, the newish Beretta 9 mm which can be a carry gun or an XD or even an FN.
