My little ruger 380 will never be sold, it is just too handy. I put a stronger spring in mine and shoot the 100g bullets that are loaded by Buffalo Bore. I do not feel under gunned with this load. My load is with a 90g speer gold dot with a max load of power pistol.
I did shoot one of the new Ruger 9mm compacts, the trigger is just fabulous to say the least. I tried to beat my brother out of it, he was not going to get rid of it.
I tore up my first generation Ruger 9mm compact shooting 124g Gold dots at 1200 fps, but it took a lot of shooting to tear it up.
Ruger has spectacular customer service. They sent a pick box to me postage pre paid, and returned the pistol in two weeks, did not cost me a penny. Mine is the model that has a safety, the new model has a safety in the trigger like a Glock.
I started loading some 130g Lead HP from GT Bullets, and they expand to 69 Caliber...legal in all respects in my state for self defense.
