I traded a Ruger for a Taurus!

[fish vacuum]

The first handgun I purchased when I turned 21 was a Ruger P95. For the price it's a great gun. Hi-cap mags are cheap and it would eat any ammo I put in it. The only downside is that it's a little on the clunky side for concealed carry and holster selection isn't that great. It's a great fun for an affordable and reliable 9mm.

I think you did pretty well. The older Ruger pistols aren't worth much, and the revolver with the extras is absolutely worth more. I've had a couple of different Taurus revolvers, and none of them have been bad guns. As long as you have realistic expectations of them, you won't be disappointed with a Taurus.

The Taurus will make great sidearm when youre in the field! I'd rather be pumping mag rounds into a bear or cat or unidentified, very large k-9 than I would a 9mm and seeing as how you have the newer 9mm i would be satisfied! There is a lot to be said for having variety in your gun case, I have the same problem with a lot of the same type of gun.

The only thing that matters is whether or not you are happy with the trade. What others think doesn't mean squat.

Trading a Ruger for a Taurus...might sound scary on paper, but it can be done.

Trading a semi auto for a revolver...never a bad idea in my book.

The P95 was a sweet pistol, but Im really liking this revolver. As of today, I have only had it for a week maybe.. I have already put about 400rds thru it, and it shoots good. Today I was popping pieces of clays with it on a dirt and rock backdrop about 40 or 50yds away with ease. It really isnt quite as accurate as I figured it would be with about 9" of sight radius. Not that its not accurate, but I can make just as good of shots with my 9mm.
 I still want to go get a Glock 20sf as soon as I can, and now that I have this revolver, Im thinking I need one in .44 magnum as well! Ive just got to figure out how to make more money to feed my habit lol.
