    In this video we take an old school single stack 45 ACP we found at Moss Pawn and Guns out to play. The older "P" Series from Ruger represent a very good value today on the used market for a reliable and rugged handgun. Stay tuned, much more on the way.

    Back in 1993 I was working as an engineer designing commercial door locks. Ruger was supplying the investment castings I was using so I made a trip to their factory to review their processes. While I was there they took me to their "scratch and dent" store where I purchased a Mark II .22, and SP101 .357 and a P90. My host at Ruger took the guns to their custome shop to "clean them up" for me. The gunsmith went over them and gave them each a trigger job so they're extra smooth. My only regret was not buying more guns. The next year Ruger won a giant bid to make mini 14's for the government of India and they no longer had the capacity to make our investment castings. I now own "better guns" but if the house was on fire I grab my Rugers first. I love my P90.

      Ruger P 85 was my first 9mm The price was affordable and a chunky -ass pistol that was a great shooter! I now own 3 P series a slimmer P -95 and my favorite a P -90 that I bought used which was in great condition with case extra mags and a really nice Don Hume leather holster which really makes the !ook of my pistol .

    Ours was the first Police Department in S.C. to adopt the P90 for duty/off duty (which was a rare thing to do with the pistol but some of us did) carry. We were also the first department to actually conduct in house testing of more than one pistol at the same time and with more than one type/manufacturer of ammo. In the end the ONLY semi-auto we tested that could hang with the P90 was our "control" pistol.....A bone stock, GI model, 1911A1. Our little department (only fourteen Officers counting the Chief on a good day) fired many hundreds of rounds through our P90s without a single malfunction that I was ever made aware of and the pistols were all in very good to excellent condition when a new Chief and Firearms Instructor came along and decided we needed "new and improved" pistols which lead to the adaptation of the Sig P220 also in .45ACP. Did I mention we were also the first department to make the .45ACP our standard duty cartridge despite initial derision from other departments and state agencies? One other thing....And no insult intended....At the time we were investigating converting from revolvers to semi-automatics the state required that ALL LEOs had to qualify at ranges from as close as "contact" out to (a measured) fifty yards from standing Weaver/Modified Weaver, kneeling (left and right knee), strong and weak hand , from behind barriers (strong and weak hands), and prone. The P90s were amazingly accurate even in the hands of Officers with very little if any previous handgun experience at the longer ranges or handguns period! If I were to run up on a decent P90 and five or six magazines today I'd buy them and feel extremely well armed indeed.....After all, I felt that way with the P90 I purchased out of pocket all those years ago and included in the testing cycle as well as carried on duty for several years after the model and cartridge combination were adopted. Excellent video on a fine handgun that never got the credit or acceptance it deserved. Keep up the great work!

  • @reddevilparatrooper
    @reddevilparatrooper Před 6 lety +6

    The P series were indeed great pistols. Here in Las Vegas Nevada the P89, P95, and P95DC were very popular affordable 9mm pistols back in the late 1990s and early 2000s as self defense and security guard pistols. I called these the "Security Guard Special" since I sold so many of them to armed security guys and gals back then. These pistols are very reliable and shoot every brand of 9mm ammo to include reloads. I have never ever seen any of these get destroyed through normal use. I only saw 3 P95/DC models get destroyed, 2 by a house fire and the other got run over by a truck when the guys who bought them from me showed it to me.

  • @ftwr6s

    5 minutes in, I want to stop and say my first pistol ( still own it today, 15,000 rounds later ) was a p89. bought new in 2005, I still love it. only problem I ever had was going 600-700 rounds without cleaning it, had failure to feed. cleaned up , ran like champ. other than that, I replaced 2 mags cuz I felt the springs were getting weak. recoil is slightly more than a cz75, but still less than polymer framed pistol out there today. keep up the good vids.

    The P90 45 was the second pistol I bought & I still love it. I've had it for 26 years & it's still in great condition. I also like how easy it is to break down to clean.
    I've been taking my daughter to the range with me since she was young & she was a little intimidated bc of the size, but with a little coaching I finally got her to shoot it.
    Once she shot it, she was hooked. She could handle the recoil & loved how light the trigger pull was. She started off shooting my .38 Special, but found out the P90 was much easier to shoot bc of the light trigger pull. Now she hates my .38 special LOL . . .
    I ended up getting her a Springfield XD 9mm for her 1st gun. I chose it bc of the safety features. Great video & keep up the good work.

Shot countless armadillos and coyotes with it from horseback. Just a tank. About 3 years ago the magazine release button spring went south. Sent it to Ruger, they replaced the spring and completely went through it for $30. I'll never get rid of this one. It has my grandsons name on it. VietVet69.

    I love my p90dc! Over two thousand rounds fired and it has never failed to fire, failed to extract or eject, every time I've pulled the trigger it fires. Any ammo, steel, brass, it eats it all. I have to pretend to have jams for training. It's the most reliable weapon I've owned. Sure, it's heavy and bulky. Makes a great melee weapon too, even more dangerous if you throw it with the slide locked open... it's a friggin four and a half pound shuriken! Great, great guns.

    I have owned several P89 9mm handguns over the year and I have always gone back to them because they don't care what ammo you put through it and they shoot well. The trigger takes getting used to but I love it and will always have at least one around the house.

    A P-89 DC was one of my favorites, Its still in the family, my sister has it now. Terrible double action trigger, but like any gun if you train enough with it, you will get the hang of it. I don't remember it ever malfunctioning.

    I had that exact gun with hogue slip on grip..it was my first large caliber pistol and I never had one malfunction ever...I never cleaned it properly and it made a great truck gun! Shot a few deer with 230gr Hydra shocks and it made me a believer in 45acp for sure!! They are tough as nails and work when ya need it..

    My first handgun was a KP90 in .45ACP and I do dearly miss it. It felt like a brick in the hand until I found Hogue rubber grips, which fit me perfectly. The thing was so big and heavy that even with hot, +P ammo, to me it felt like it had less recoil than most 9mms. Damnit, now I'm going to have to find another one! Never, ever sell a good gun! It took me way too much time and money to learn that lesson.

    @jeffseal8477 Před 6 lety

    The P85 is the first reliable pistol I ever owned, I got it new when it was first introduced and have taken it as a sidearm every time I go to the range. Love it. In all of these years I only remember one malfunction and it was due to bad ammo.

    Definately one of Rugers best .45 autos. It pisses me off that they actually stopped making them. I had a P97 at one time but traded it though. It was reliable and tough as well. Thanks for showing this great pistol some attention even though I am a die hard 1911 guy. I was actually thinking of getting one of these sometime but I guess not now since they stopped making them.

  • @glennquagmire835
    @glennquagmire835 Před 3 lety

    I bought my Ruger P90 new in 1992. At that time, I had a subscription to Guns & Ammo who did a 10,000 round torture test with a SW, Glock & the Ruger P90. Due to their results I bought the Ruger. It has been flawless. It will eat anything you feed it without failure. It is a rock-solid gun. It is big and is cumbersome to CCW in the summer but I love it.

  • @cc-tb3st
    @cc-tb3st Před 3 lety

    P90 was my first gun ever 20 years ago. I still have it and never plan to get rid of it. Never jammed with thousands of rounds through it. It's a beast throwing 230 grain lead accurately at things. I would hate to be on the wrong end of one.

  • @ronniehdable

    I have a Ruger P90DC that is about 40 years old. Still looks brand new. Nothing but steel for the bolt/slide and the handle is ballistic ceramic. So solid i may say i would rather use it as a club than a gun... and the sights would still be great after i did so...

    The first gun I ever bought was a Ruger P91DC. I picked it up for a great deal (for a college student) and in really good shape. It's definitely bulky, but it's a really stable shooting platform and very reliable. Great video!

  • @prepperoverwatch7965
    @prepperoverwatch7965 Před 6 lety

    I carried the Ruger P97 DC when I was a Bail Enforcement Agent. I loved it and I want another one. I started carrying a 1911 before I got deployed to F.O.B. Kalsu with the 155th Brigade combat team formally known as the 155th SAB Heavy (separate armor brigade). I was a T.O.C. (Tactical Operation Center) RAT.
    Those Ruger P series are worth Twice as much as they costs.

    I've got a P89, 9mm version of this gun. It's probably had about 3 or 4k rounds thru it (maybe 300-350 from me), but aside from some outside wear the thing looks and works like it's brand new. Came with two 15rd mags. These pistols were designed for military use and it shows, and so far it's been unstoppable. Either the factory or the previous owner got the sights dialed in tight, she's a sharpshooter and just fun to shoot.

    I've got a P85 MkII 9mm and a P90 .45ACP, love them both. True shooters guns, you can feed them anything and they'll shoot all day. My P90 is my EDC pistol. I did have to change the grips on both though, but a set of Hogue grips was all of $19 and made them entirely new guns to shoot.

    Bought it new in the 90s. It never jams, same 15 round mags that came with it. lol
    I haven't fired it in years, bed side is a Ruger GP100 and lots of Hounds....well the Hounds are outside. :-)

  • @DrumandPianoDude
    @DrumandPianoDude Před 4 lety +1

    I have a P89, P90, and a P95. I'd take these over most DA/SA pistols. I don't think that they're any less of a gun than Sig, Beretta, etc. They're not not as slick, but they're accurate, super reliable, and can really take a beating. Their polymer on the P95 is so tough that they didn't even use metal rails on its frame! That's Ruger! Great video!

    I bought one in 1994 as my first law enforcement gun. In the twelve years I used it it never failed or malfunctioned. I only stopped carrying it because my new department made me carry a Glock 20. I always joked if I ran out of ammo I could always hit them with it.

    Thanx for the video. I recently got a P85 MKII for next to nothing ($200 OTD) and I really like it. My cousin's hubby got a P90 for home defense back in '92 due to the L.A. riots spilling over into Pasadena. He hasn't shot the thing in about 25 years, and I've been trying for almost that long to get it from him. The gun was an impulse buy and he later told me that the .45 round was too uncomfortable for him and his wife. I almost have him convinced turn his P90 over to me and get a 9mm, so wish me luck.
