It is time for round 2 of budget gun durability test! The previous test gun (SD9VE) did surprisingly well, so it is time to see how the Ruger stacks up. First few things that I feel need to be mentioned before we start-
1) I understand this is a sample of one and is in no way a scientific test. Take from it (if anything) what you will.
2) This test is completely out of my own pocket, there are no sponsors. The plus side is that this means I can be 100% objective since I have no bridges to burn. That being said since I am picking up the bill please understand that is why you will not see 196 types of ammo shot through the pistol, or a test that extends tens-of-thousands of rounds.
3) There is a thread with a video by a much better shooter here. It is worth a watch, and in my opinion worth subscribing to his youtube. Thanks for taking the time, Patrick!
4) There is a short and great review by a actual writer here. Thank you Tam! Do yourself a favor and follow her blog.
Be back in a few minutes with the first pictures and some initial thoughts.
