![]() The grip texture isn’t very aggressive, and I think a little stipple work would improve the grip. The rear hump is enough for a good high grip, and the trigger guard undercut is just average. It lacks any obnoxious finger grooves or weird features. The grip is just long enough to completely fill my hand. From a precision standpoint, a 3.5-inch group at 25 yards is the best I can do. At defensive handgun ranges, you’ll engage with ease. From a practical standpoint, it’s not an issue. The big sights are easy to see but cover a fair bit of the target at range. Loosen the screw, move it where you want it, then tighten it down. The rear sight has a Glock-like U shape, and the front sight is a simple white dot. The sights are fairly large and easy to see. Ruger didn’t equip the Security-9 with a bad trigger by any means, but no one would be impressed by it. The reset is short and audible, but I can barely feel the click. It feels like two pieces of plastic rubbing on each other. The pull is short, but it’s spongy and grinds a bit. It’s one consistent trigger pull that came in at about 6 pounds. This design implements a very striker-fired-like trigger. This same design proved to be successful on the LCP 2 and LC9, so it makes sense to stick with it. It’s not your typical hammer, but a single action-only hammer that’s completely shrouded. In an age of striker-fired pistols, this stands out. Unlike most modern handguns, the Security-9 uses a hammer-fired design. While it’s called a full size, it is smaller than guns like the P320 and Glock 17 and is more Glock 19 size with a 4-inch barrel and 15 round capacity.Ĭheck Price Banging Hammers With the Security-9 – Our Take While guns are plenty similar, I’m reviewing the Security 9 full-size today. ![]() The Security 9 comes in two sizes, the full and compact. The Security 9 replaces the SR series of handguns with something a little more modern and a lot sleeker. The budget price point of the Security 9 makes it quite attractive, and the Ruger guarantee of quality helps secure its place as a budget gun and not a cheap gun. Heck, it would be at home in the holster of a security guard, although most police would likely go the Glock or SIG route. What you do get is a perfectly competent firearm well suited for concealed carry or hammer defense. You won’t get interchangeable backstraps or night sights with a gun this cheap. It’s a fairly simple handgun that shaves off some not so necessary features to provide a robust, reliable, and accurate firearm. ![]() Ruger has had several lines of semi-auto handguns, and the Security 9 is their latest. This 9mm semi-auto handgun is a far cry from the classic revolver, but they share a few traits.īoth were built with affordability and duty use in mind. The nine in Ruger Security 9 isn’t a reference to capacity but to the caliber. The six is Security 6 is a clear reference to the capacity of the classic revolver. The Ruger Security 6 was Ruger’s first entry into the double-action duty market of revolvers, and it became a favorite of the company’s lineup, with about 1.5 million produced.
