I recently bought a Ruger P97 after having talked to Mike Smisko at Ruger about previous problems with the slide stop working loose. He assured me the problems were fixed. So, I got it.
My P97 has an excellent fit and feels "tight." It fits my hand perfectly with the slim grip and single stack mag. It seems small and light enough to carry IWB, but big enough as a "duty" sized gun.
Put 350 rounds through it with no problems at all. It is very accurate in my hands out to 25 yards, and I found that I actually shoot it better than my Springfield 1911 and my Glock 21. I like the trigger. The single action stroke is a bit long, but provides a nice surprise break without almost no "stacking."
I think the P97 could compete with a Sig or HK at the range, and costs 319.00 brand spankin' new. Is this gun one of the best kept secrets in the industry?
I like it!
