Just bought my 4th Ruger pistol -sr40c. The gun will not receive the magazines when they're fully loaded. You have to literally ram them in and as a result the slide releases on its own and chambers a round without me touching the slide release button. Ruger, in my opinion, is falling behind in quality control. Within the last 12 months I have purchased 4 Ruger pistols, 3 of which have had to go back to Ruger for repair after 1st shooting session. Other sr40c owners have identical problems.
I may have missed it but have you ever done a video on the S&W M&P .40 compact? I am kinda torn between the Ruger and S&W compacts in .40 cal...can we get your rathers on the two???
i just got 1 today sr40c mine has stainless receiver it looked small n your hands not so small n my small hands lol i have not shot it yet cant wait thumbs up
Well buddy because of your vids I just went and picked up a brand new 40c, traded in an old .38 snub nose to get it so hope its worth it. Wont get to actually shoot it for about three days so keep your fingers crossed for me and keep the vids coming. Love the channel.
Nice lil gun. I have a Ruger SR9 and i've shot maybe 700 rounds through it so far. It's been flawless shooting. The only thing i'm not too crazy about is the trigger. It's not a very smooth pull like all the other guns i've shot. It may just be me though. Other than that, it's a very nice, reliable gun and easy to keep clean.
@Movanaful I own an full sized SR9. Only problem ive had is F.O.E (failure to extract). Im confident it was the shitty TuLAMMO that i used. I wouldnt recommend steel cased ammo. Steel then brass doesnt mix. Im fully kicking brass now!
Hey, HK45, you're like the older brother I never had! :) Your opinion...Ruger SR40c, or S&W M&P40c? I have to let my wife know which one for my Christmas present! I have some Rugers, but feel like expanding out! :) Life is good!
Well i held that gun a few weeks ago and it fit my hand like a glove. felt as good as a 1911. I have one and the frame feed ramp is undercut and warranty woun't cover it. Nice to have over 600 dollars into a defect!. I had a origional P-85 and it never failed even though it was 'crude'. If Ruger makes this into a 45 i would be very pleased! One of the few American companies that doesn't make junk.
Eklable why would anyone want to come to mass to buy a gun. We can't even buy a glock unless it's a pre ban 1998 model or sigs or anything with less than a ten pound trigger. Our state bites the big liberal weennie. The gun shop you spoke of is not that cheep ether their a bit snobby and high priced. My used glock 27 cost 699 at their shop. Their are way better places to get guns my friend in Taxachussetts I just wont drop their names. Not my site to place adds.
@mason275 then why aren't the residents of your state doing anything to change it's failed weapon prohibition polices? clearly criminals by definition do not follow any kind of laws so all that leaves is the law abiding public to be effected by those laws you cannot fix stupid but you can vote it out.
@mason275 I wasn't saying come to MA to buy a gun, the original question was about a post that someone made claiming to find the gun for dirt cheap, which was what I was responding to, there are some gun stores out there that have prices bellow MSRP's and I was explaining that people need to shop around, not just go to the closest gun shop.
Also, the glocks are high priced exactly for the reason you just stated :pre-ban and high demand. I did mean new gun prices too, sorry for not mentioning.
@mason275 btw, don't try to adhere to all the ridiculous MA laws. Very few make any kind of sense as to what they are trying to accomplish, I do order ammo online and have purchased high cap post-ban mags. The other thing that drives me absolutely fucking insane are fixed stocks, where's the justification in that. If I really wanted to make the gun extremely short i would saw the fucking thing off.
How you doin, i like all your video's thanks for posting. Just want to tell you forgot about the hand grip extention on the back of the handle which reverses if you take out the pin and slip out the rubber hand extender.
Hickok45, would you mind if I did a close-up video? I like these close up videos you make and I think I want to do one with some of my smaller handguns.
Your thumbs look like toes! Lol. I think I may pick this gun up for Ccw. I too wonder if the loaded chamber indicator would catch on anything or prevent it from being properly holstered. Whatchya think?
The loaded chamber indicator looks like it sticks up kind of far, do you think it would cause any issues if you were using this gun for ccw? I know you are a Glock man, but how would you rate the sr40c against the G23?
It is a nice looking gun. It shot well too, think it had something to do with the shooter. Live your humor. You know if you forget to put your ears on, no has to tell you. You're the first to know. Which was true but it struck me funny thanks for the video
hickok45, I need some advise on a gun for conceal carry for my wife. She would be a first time carrier. She has been shooting my G27, althogh I think it is a little large for her. Can you give us your thoughts on a good gun for her?
Hickok, Love all your videos you really do a great job. I just recently purchased a Ruger SR9c and am getting my CCW. Do you have any insight on Glow inc. paint for painting my own night sights??
Very nice close up shooting. Yeah, I know what you mean about being the first to know when not having your hearing protection in...first shot is kind of Loud. Great video and very nice close ups.
@Hashmountain I never offered that you can buy one for less than $400. I just called our Leo distributor to verify prices. $475 for a blue label with night sights. Subtract the price of the sights and you are at $400. I also never said you yourself could get one, but LEO, fire , EMT , pilots and military is a lot of people that can. Of course there is a backlog of 160,000 units with only 2000 blue labels a day going out the door.
@rat4spd You're trying to compare apples to oranges when you throw up civilian prices versus law enforcement or FFL holders. Let's just let it go as a miscommunication.
Just purchased this gun last week and brought it to the range a few days ago. The gun performed flawlessly and was a pleasure to shoot. I shot 3 types of ammo and the gun fired all perfectly, even when alternating ammo in the same magazine. The gun feels amazing in my medium/small hand, especially with the 9 round mag. Overall I am very satisfied with this gun and would highly recommend it. Good price too at about $440.
If you're not careful, Ruger's going to have to put a big red flag that pops up when a round is chambered that says: "WEAR HEARING PROTECTION BEFORE USING!".
I carry the full sized Sr40 and its one of the best guns ive ever had. These things are just as reliable as a glock ( giving that im not submerging it in water or burying it in sand ;P ) and the 40.cal is such an awesome round
Heard a click before every shot . sounded like My Glock trigger.. I can pull it back just a bit till it clicks then its ready to fire with maybe another oz of pull. Not sure if thats what the click was coming from? have forgot to put my ears on a couple times. LOL and Yes I was the first to know.. JKW
@ds10363 , "disengage the thumb safety after every shot"? Not hardly. That would be crazy to own any gun that had the safety engaging with every shot. :-)
@hickok45 Hey hickok, what is the noise we hear between shots? that clicking noise? im not accusing you AT ALL of disengaging the safety, but I can understand how he would think that, due to the click noise. Can you please shed some light on that?
@ds10363 that click you hear and that your mistaking for the safety is really the tirgger resting back after he is releasing presshure from the trigger!
@ds10363 i think you're misinterpreting hickok's thumb movement and the click from the trigger reset as flicking a safety off, which isn't what's happenin' here...
Hey hickok45, Just wanted to say that I like your videos very much! Would love to see you using one of the Imbel MD assault rifles since the brazilian army is retiring them. Keep up the great work!
@hickok45 hey i love your vids and I was wondering If u could make a vid on your gun collection. Like every single gun u own. Or just make a tour of your gun safe. Thanks a lot! Keep up the good work
@hickok45 It's a Glock factory discount for LEO, fire, EMT, and military. I can't say that all Glock dealers participate, but the list of dealers is somewhere buried on Glock's website. I believe that applies to almost all Glocks, not all. I paid $485 for my 27 with night sights.
@hickok45 I know our local police supply store offers law enforcement discounts and even reserve officer discounts on Glocks being around 400. It's a really awesome deal, once I'm a reserve I definitely plan to pick one up at that price!
@hickok45 You really have to look around for a great gun store, don't settle for the one that is the most convenient to travel to. I live in MA and I pass through usually drive 3 hours and pass buy 5+ gun stores to get to what we have determined to be the best gun store in MA Four Seasons Firearms (fsguns.com). They have great prices and the best service, so like a said, explore the gun stores till you find the best one.
@rex3453 Gun is striker fired, no hammer to re cock. The trigger, like on a Glock, resets part of the way during its return, allowing you to shoot without letting the trigger come all the way back. Learning that reset point is the key to shooting fast and accurate. Pretty loud on that Ruger, nice gun but not exactly do-horned, as some would say. That loaded chamber indicator alone would keep me from buying one. Too bad, there are some really nice features to that little 40.
@rex3453 No probemo! I love Ruger, but they seem to have the S&W Batmobile disease. Noone is ever going to use the LCI, so having it so obtrusive is rediculouse. The safety is a joke, try hitting that while on the draw. Some positives with that gun but also some serious negatives. 100$ bucks less is not worth the compromises that gun has.
@csxconductor100 i mean he makes films by shooting guns and give us close ups. i hope he shoots and make a close up, after he see's the comment.. do you get it??
The clicking you hear after each shot is the trigger reset. When you fire you squeeze and hold tell you regain control of the firearms. I am not a pro shooter but i believe this helps with accuracy and quicker followup shots because the reset point of the trigger is shorter than the full pull.
Hickok, what's your conversion rate of "T&E gun" to "your gun?" It seems like you buy almost half of those things. On that basis, these manufacturers really ought to set up a T&E program for all of us...we'd probably end up buying them more often than not!
@GamingNinja123k, I travel around the country and globe paying people to watch my videos. It works pretty well, except that I get really made when I give somebody a dollar bill to watch a video and they don't actually do it. :-)
You'll never know it's there. Sits well below line of sight.
If you don't like it, you can also have it removed altogether. That's what I did. Gunsmith put a small wedge of stainless that didn't pivot up in it's place.
Another good looking Firearm from Ruger, I just went out today to one of the local Gun Shops by my house and they had a Kimber Classic 1911, can't wait to try it out either tomorrow or Sunday. First 1911 and got it for about $500, it was love at first pickup. The trigger has a nice crisp break on it and it feels like its either a 2 1/4 or 3 1/4 pound trigger
I am a lefty and have the SR9C. It is a 9mm. I have shot over 5000 rds. It is a great gun for a lefty , a great first gun or just a great all around gun to have. Hick I agree with you it is really priced right
@BrooklynboyinSC I second that! I love my SR9 and carry daily. I've only got about 2000 rnds through her, but narry an issue. AND made in America! Gotta love that.
When a company wants you to show off one of there guns, do you get to keep it or is it on lone it you. You must get something out of this other than just shooting there weapons. All though shooting them is a lot of fun.
Just bought my 4th Ruger pistol -sr40c. The gun will not receive the magazines when they're fully loaded. You have to literally ram them in and as a result the slide releases on its own and chambers a round without me touching the slide release button.

How's the price point on this gun compared to, say, a Glock 27?
gibson1789 4 months ago 4
@gibson1789 , I think you're talking about around $100.00 less.

@hickok45 With the Glock discount pricing a 27 at $400, I'd like to see Ruger beat that.
rat4spd in reply to hickok45 (Show the comment) 4 months ago
@rat4spd , Wow, where you finding that price?
hickok45 in reply to rat4spd (Show the comment) 4 months ago 8
@hickok45 It's a Glock factory discount for LEO, fire, EMT, and military. I can't say that all Glock dealers participate, but the list of dealers is somewhere buried on Glock's website. I believe that applies to almost all Glocks, not all. I paid $485 for my 27 with night sights.
rat4spd in reply to hickok45 (Show the comment) 4 months ago
@rat4spd I remember, you have to buy through a LEO distrubutor, which means you may have to wait a while to get the pistol.
rat4spd in reply to rat4spd (Show the comment) 4 months ago
@hickok45 yeah here in Chattanooga M&Ps and Glocks are running around $400-$450 I guess theres to much cheap competition.
pastubbs in reply to hickok45 (Show the comment) 4 months ago
@hickok45 No kidding! Glocks, at their lowest price, run about 499.99. If he can get me a new one for 400.00 I'll eat my hat.

@Hashmountain Are you hungry?
rat4spd in reply to Hashmountain (Show the comment) 4 months ago
@rat4spd nope, and it's not going to happen because nobody is selling brand new Glocks for 400.00 or less.
Hashmountain in reply to rat4spd (Show the comment) 4 months ago
@hickok45 I know our local police supply store offers law enforcement discounts and even reserve officer discounts on Glocks being around 400. It's a really awesome deal, once I'm a reserve I definitely plan to pick one up at that price!

@hickok45 You really have to look around for a great gun store, don't settle for the one that is the most convenient to travel to. I live in MA and I pass through usually drive 3 hours and pass buy 5+ gun stores to get to what we have determined to be the best gun store in MA Four Seasons Firearms (fsguns.com). They have great prices and the best service, so like a said, explore the gun stores till you find the best one.

whats that clicking noise after every shot
MrSweetalker101 4 months ago
@MrSweetalker101 Probably the hammer re-cocking.
rex3453 in reply to MrSweetalker101 (Show the comment) 4 months ago
@rex3453 Gun is striker fired, no hammer to re cock. The trigger, like on a Glock, resets part of the way during its return, allowing you to shoot without letting the trigger come all the way back. Learning that reset point is the key to shooting fast and accurate. Pretty loud on that Ruger, nice gun but not exactly do-horned, as some would say. That loaded chamber indicator alone would keep me from buying one. Too bad, there are some really nice features to that little 40.
MonsterBNH in reply to rex3453 (Show the comment) 4 months ago
@MonsterBNH Yeah after posting my comment I don't know why I said the hammer. It was definitely the trigger, sorry for my mistake lol.
rex3453 in reply to MonsterBNH (Show the comment) 4 months ago
@rex3453 No probemo! I love Ruger, but they seem to have the S&W Batmobile disease. Noone is ever going to use the LCI, so having it so obtrusive is rediculouse. The safety is a joke, try hitting that while on the draw. Some positives with that gun but also some serious negatives. 100$ bucks less is not worth the compromises that gun has.
MonsterBNH in reply to rex3453 (Show the comment) 4 months ago
@MrSweetalker101 the trigger is resetting, so that it can be fired again

I can do without the silly flag raising on the top of the pistol. Ruger should call this the Iwo Jima model. Ridiculous.

crfwhiplash433 in reply to sdrugby1235 (Show the comment) 4 months ago
@sdrugby1235
The clicking you hear after each shot is the trigger reset. When you fire you squeeze and hold tell you regain control of the firearms. I am not a pro shooter but i believe this helps with accuracy and quicker followup shots because the reset point of the trigger is shorter than the full pull.
bbunch44 in reply to sdrugby1235 (Show the comment) 4 months ago
Hickok, what's your conversion rate of "T&E gun" to "your gun?" It seems like you buy almost half of those things. On that basis, these manufacturers really ought to set up a T&E program for all of us...we'd probably end up buying them more often than not!

@AK107DX
You'll never know it's there. Sits well below line of sight.
If you don't like it, you can also have it removed altogether. That's what I did. Gunsmith put a small wedge of stainless that didn't pivot up in it's place.

Another good looking Firearm from Ruger, I just went out today to one of the local Gun Shops by my house and they had a Kimber Classic 1911, can't wait to try it out either tomorrow or Sunday. First 1911 and got it for about $500, it was love at first pickup. The trigger has a nice crisp break on it and it feels like its either a 2 1/4 or 3 1/4 pound trigger

When a company wants you to show off one of there guns, do you get to keep it or is it on lone it you. You must get something out of this other than just shooting there weapons. All though shooting them is a lot of fun.
