That's too bad. We didn't even get to see those here because they're prohibited. I wouldn't mind having one in 9mm myself.

Jim, Sorry for the late response, but we had no Internet and it was still off before I finally hit my rack and when I awoke sometime after 4 a.m. it was finally working.

Why was the Ruger LC9 Prohibited where you live ? Does this mean Ruger's SR9c is also Prohibited. I know Ruger's SR9c also uses 2 Magazines. The 2nd one holds a Double Column 17+1 Round 9mm one.

They even say it's just as light as the LC9 Single Column 7+ 1. I don't think so. I've held both and to me the LC9 is much lighter and I had one a long time ago.

I ended up trading it with a Friend for his Sig P232 .380, but I didn't mind that the Sig's Magazine Release was at the Bottom. My Friend who owns a Gun Store when he Signed Up to Sell Lipsey Editions Pistols and Received his Dealer one He ended up Selling it to me. It's Black and has Nice Gold features without looking to gaudy.
Now with seeing some Really Good . .380 Ammo like Critical Defense I don't mind going back and carrying a. 380 instead of 9mm, but it also to do with and where I'm going.

Any handgun with a barrel length of 105mm or less and handguns of 25 or 32 cal are prohibited because the gum't said so back in '98.

That's Terrible... Y'all can't have a Nice Small Pistol with a Single Stack even if it hold 7 Rnds of 9mm and can't have a WW2 M1 Carbine without tons of paperwork.

The List here keeps growing also. I wonder when it's all over and they start to act on it I wonder what are we going to have to do or will it just die in the House with before ALL the Lawsuits... I'm just guessing.

Way worse than that too Frank.

My personal everyday CCW is their little LCP in .380. Not much goid past 10 feet even with the red dot laser (?). It is easy to carry but the take down pin broke once and the extractor has broken twice. I'm still looking to replace it with a P365 but that is damn near impossible since they are not on the approved California roster for new gun sales.

That suggests to me a violent action when it fires. Maybe too lightly constructed. Thus light to carry...

Singer B. Just curious, did you contact Ruger about this? If so, what was the answer?

They said they would fix it each time,and each time it sat at the shop for 3 weeks. The first time with the extractor they fixed it and about a year later it fell out. The last 2 times,I gave up on them, pulled it out of the shop, ordered the parts and fixed it myself. I added a stronger recoil spring which helped to reduce the recoil quite a bit.
