What, what, what? No Ruger .45 fans here but me?

Good points being made by all. I've always wondered just how effective hollow points really are considering the lower velocity (which gives the ball ammo it's 'punch') of the 1911-A1. Can the ball ammo really be beat?

Rats! Gotta take the wife to the store. Back in a bit.

i've got a P90dc. very reliable, too big for carry compared to the G30. put match sights on it,
hogue grips, polished the ramp. sturdy and sufficient. fun to shoot.

Question (forgive me if this is a dumb one): I read this article as saying that the .45 holds seven rounds. Does this mean that the "high capactity" magazine ban did not affect .45's? In other words, it didn't make any difference because none of them were made for "high capacity" magazines anyway? If not-- if there are .45's that will accept a so-called "high capactity" magazine-- are they desirable? Ought one go ahead and get one now, while there are still pre-ban magazines available? If so, which one?

Yeah, I got a Ruger P-90. The problem with Ruger's is that they are plain jane guns that do what they were meant to do. Shoot.

My P-90 has approx. 5000 rounds through it and it has choked only on some of my reloads with range brass. All reloads with good brass and factory ammo go through it like s4!t through a goose. It is very accurate too.

Ruger .45 fan present and accounting for. I love my Ruger. It is by the far the most comfortable pistol I have ever shot and I can shoot all day with it. I used to shoot .380 and .357 mag but the .45 ACP was a revelation. So very easy to shoot, it feels like a working gun, a ranch gun.
Man...I'm going shooting this weekend.
