Ruger .45acp auto

[Screaming Eagle]

Anybody had any experience with Ruger .45acp auto's? I saw one for sale NIB $450. I'm looking for a .45 auto anyhow and this was tempting but I'd like to hear from folks with hands on experience with them. Thanks.

Have had a P-90DC (Decock only) for years and love it, never had a problem. It's loose and shaky compared to the next generation after that which I believe was a P-97, and the newest version, P-345, is built to even tighter tolerances. I've never shot the newer/newest versions, only my old one, but I can't imagine them having gotten worse rather than better.

I have the P95, it's a 9mm but it's pretty decent, especially for the price... Biggest complaint is the size...

I had a Ruger KP95 in 1997 that I received in a partial trade from a friend who owed me money. Long story short, it was a stove piping POS that Ruger couldn't even fix so I sold it for $200 to a co-worker and he loved it. Shortly after, I purchased a NIB Glock 21 for close to $380 and have been extremely satisfied with its performance.

I had a P97DC (.45 ACP Decocker) for about 2 years before I got rid of it. The trigger pull was long and heavy. It was very top heavy due to the polymer frame and something felt "loose" in it. I think it was the decocking mechanism that rattled. Anyways I sold it and woudn't own another one.

Welp, I'm getting a P90. Got a pretty good deal on it (I think) for $330 with 3 mags. Still in the box with less than a box of rounds through it. We'll see how me and that big ole German girl make it. Already got a case of ammo on the way and looking at 500 of HP as carrying rounds.

ruger has a pretty good warranty. If something isn't right on the gun, they'll send you replacement parts....

I have a P345 that has been a very good weapon. Never had any kind of malfunction, has digested everything I've run through it, and is plenty accurate. Can't say anything bad about it.

you can get an XD or even a glock for that price.

My XD is for sale...enough rounds through it to make the trigger nice(because they suck at first).
