 Hey there friends, thanks for checking in. Today we're looking at the new Ruger American Competition. Ruger continually expands the American line and this is their latest development called the competition. It has a five-inch barrel, lightning cuts in the slide, green fiber optic front sight, a pick rail, sight hole indicator. It is optic ready, set to fit a Vortex Burris, a doctor, a sight mark, a couple others, so a wide variety of dots you can put on there. Adjustable rear sights. It's an ambidextrous gun. Slide stop and magazine release on both sides, so it's left-handed friendly. And of course they have grip modules that is consistent with the American line. However, these are a little more heavily textured, kind of sandpaper-ish. But let's go ahead and shoot this thing. A couple of two 17 round magazines. Let's see how it does. Very nice. The trigger pull is pretty consistent with the other Americans, but it may be a little bit lighter. When I'm live-firing, it feels a little bit lighter. So here is the first pull, and then you're looking at a reset right there. So it's right around five, five and a quarter, it would be my best guess. But certainly a nice gun, and I'm going to turn the camera around so you can check out the recoil. It's not bad. It's actually quite a comfortable handgun, and it's a good-looking handgun, too. And I love these larger model handguns, especially the competition ones. You know, it just is a very accurate shooter, and this one is consistent with that. Alright, here we go. I like it. Nice. All-around handgun, 30 yards back. Competition model. Ruger American. Let's start right. I told you on my table review that this thing is accurate. I said that most competition guns are accurate. That was pretty accurate. Well, it's been a while since I did a limperess test, so let's do it with the American competition. See, it knows up no problem, limperist or not. They passed. Here we have self-defense loads. American competition. Let's see if we can knock that target down. No problem with self-defense loads. The unloaded weight for the American competition is 34 ounces. You throw 17 rounds of 9 millimeter in there. You're looking at 41 and a half ounces. 15 yards away. It's a nice shooting handgun. I enjoy it. I think it looks cool, and it sure does shoot nice. And I look forward to doing more with this American competition. If you like videos like this, please subscribe and share. I always appreciate thumbs up button.
