I have put many rounds down range and I love the gun. It is the only semi I will ever carry out of all the autos I have shot and owned :tup:

They have a new competion series that has fiber optic sights and they lighted the gun up by cutting a vent into the top of the slide. Very nice! I just finished building my 223 last night and now onto either a 6.5 grendel or 458 soscom. Then maybe the new xdm :tup:

Mostly shoot the 9 to keep ammo costs down. You get a holster, dual mag pouch, speed loader, two mags, & three sizes of grip backstraps. Three barrel sizes and three calibers. A very good pistol.

Different strokes for different folks.

Post by: Johnb317 on January 29, 2012, 03:00:51 PM: Question.... If it's to carry (bowhunting let's say) I was thinking the Ruger 357... light etc. only thing I don't like is the short barrel.. 357 vs 40 vs wolf/bear? weight is a factor.

:dunno:
