Back in the good graces of TNP or an outcast? On a solo desert expedition I intend to find out. One serial number of the Ruger SR-9 Model #KBSR9 had several high-profile failures to go into battery during "Trench Warfare" drill runs with me and crew (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7vngV53zfc). This was a disappointing performance from a gun that had so solidly performed in 100s of rounds of testing in 2008 TNP tests. This particular SR-9 was sent back to Ruger. Unfortunately the same issues arose AGAIN in subsequent runs in the Trench...very disappointing (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPs2ktHcqjM) and embarrassing for the highly recommended SR-9. But I took you along for the ride and the information. Especially perturbed at this point I told Ruger to either replace or refund the money paid. They replaced it and shot 60 rds through the gun to ensure its reliability (on invoice). This is the update video and performance of the replacement SR-9 #KBSR9 with 200+ rounds fired. The gun shot well high and right...elevation was corrected by didn't have the time or tools to drift the REAR sight (so steel plate hits were errant at times). Nevertheless the news was good, even after a Nutnfancy Snow test. Come along for the update.....//////////////////// Nutnfancy Likability Scale Ruger SR-9: 9 out of 10 (price considered) //////////////////////////Music licensed to TNP from: www.youtube.com/user/InSoMnIaKsTrAnCe

Right handed; left eye dominant as well. Can can be a pain from time to time, but you hit it on the head with both eyes open.

I've had one for about a year , put close to 10,000 rounds through it and only had one failure so far and I think it happened because it was dirty as hell. Nice,light and reliable gun. Even in the full size version it's very comfortable for concealed carry. I give it an A+

nutn- awesome review. know you liked the S&W9 as well and it has a similar grip angle to the ruger. Any preference between the two & why?

That's an odd reliability test. In what scenario would a person be forced to shove snow into their disassembled handgun? Well at least we now know it will work. NOW take it apart and throw it in a pot of stew... as a reliability test of course. You never know apparently.
