My list may miss one or two but Ruger has all sorts of new guns on their site.
SR1911 Commander
SR45- I'm sure the SR45c is on the way
SR22 with silver anodize finish
SR22 with threaded barrel
LC380- basically LC9 for 380, I don't get that one so much
LCR 22 Mag WMRF
Super Redhawk Alaskan in 480
Super Redhawk in 480
Single Nine 22 WMRF
And it looks like the P345 has been dropped from the lineup and replaced by the SR45
Oooh, that Commander looks nice. I've been looking for one in my price range (under $800). Gotta come up with a way to convince the husband I need yet another pistol, lol! I promised him I'd look into a rifle for myself.
I think that the LC380 does have all the lawyer stuff.
From the website- "SAFETY FEATURES include internal lock, manual safety, magazine safety and loaded chamber indicator which provides
visual and tactile indication that chamber is loaded."
At first I thought the LC380 was an upgrade to the LCP address the recoil and sight (lack there of) issues, but then I realized it's the exact same size as the LC9. :blink:
Someone on the LCP forum claims to have handled a new LCP at a gun shop his cousin works at. Said the trigger pull was shorter and the sights were more pronounced. At first people thought he was confusing it with the LC380, but he owns both and LCP and an LC9 and was sure this was an LCP. Checking the LCP's page on ruger.com, there's no mention of changes but the sights on the image DO look more pronounced when I compared it to mine. Specifically the front.
If that's the case it's not much of a change, but it show's they're listening... at least a little. If after market company's can put "real" sights on I don't think it'd be much of a challenge for Ruger to do it standard.
Some states require it. I'm guessing they're trying to cater to all markets. (I wish they'd offer special models for those states, but I guess it's not financially or realistically viable.)
I didn't expect to see the commander until they caught up on orders for the full size. I'm guessing these will be just as hard to find as their big brother.
MSRP doesn't look too bad. Wasn't it $799 last year for the full size? I was worried they would hike the price more.
I just hope they (eventually) do a lightweight 1911 frame. After all, they DO know a thing or two about the casting of aluminum alloys. Sorry to see the P345 leave the line-up, it's mighty comfortable in my hand. It was their 1st centerfire autoloading pistol that, to me, didn't feel like a brick with a trigger. Go Ruger!
The sr1911 commander might find it's way to my home one day if I can find one. It might be a while but I like it even though I have not seen or held one yet.
I saw a video yesterday,on guns and ammo, on the sr45.It looks nice.
