 Hey there friends thanks for checking in at the Range Now and we've got the Ruger Security 9 versus the Taurus G3. The Security 9 has been around a couple years. The G3 is new for 2019 and when I featured this with the table review many people said compare it with the Security 9 and that's what I'm doing today. Let's start with the Ruger. The Ruger Security 9 is a compact size gun with a 4-inch barrel comes with two magazines that hold 15 rounds you can pick it up for right around 280, 290 so under $300 it is a hammer fired gun that Ruger took the technology from the LCP-2 once they realized how much people love that and added it to the Security 9 and they created a budget-minded friendly gun that many people love. It does have a full pick rail on the dust cover front serrations and I already mentioned hammer fired with a thumb safety right there. Nice grip texturing and a sight hole indicator on top. Big white dot in the front, Glock-like drift adjustable field gold sights in the back. Let's take a few shots with the Security 9 and see how it does and there it is. I measured the trigger pull right around five and a half pounds but the Security 9 and the Security 9 compact the smaller model that they made from this are very nice guns and many happy people especially with that under $300 price but now we've got the Torus G3 third generation it copies many of the features of the popular G2C with the grip texturing the position of the thumb safety and slide lock the trigger is very nice I'm measuring that under five pounds it does have a three-slot pick rail front serrations a 15 and 17 round mag this is the 15 round mag four inch barrel sight hole indicator and together they put together an amazing package this is about 50 bucks cheaper right around 240 we'll get you this gun and like I said it is new many people love the G2C they're gonna love the G3 some people are getting their hands on it now it's getting distributed out so let's take a few shots when I did my rage review I shot this gun incredibly well and I'm pretty happy with its performance so far the one thing that is a little bit unique is the front sight is not as bright so you kind of have to pick it up a little more than with the Ruger with the larger front sight but both shoot incredibly well both are easy to disassemble and maintain and both are pretty light now this is 23 ounces unloaded this is just under 25 ounces unloaded so you have a little bit of a weight advantage if you consider less weight and advantage with the Ruger security nine so the question is which one of these would you prefer is it the security nine or the Taurus G3 well I pondered this and now that I shot them side-by-side and I have shot them side-by-side before I I feel strongly about both these now I featured and continue to feature many Taurus handguns and I have a strong opinion of Taurus handguns but in this comparison I also feature many Ruger's I'm going with the security nine I feel strong about it but I certainly do enjoy this Taurus G3 I'm interested to know what you think and which one you would take and if you like videos like this please subscribe and share I always appreciate thumbs up button thanks for watching and you guys be safe
