| Anything by Ruger is probably over-built and will still be going strong well after your grandchildern pass it on. I've never had one but would like to buy on some day. The steel P series Ruger is like my 639 S&W. Heavy, strong and dependable. That weight makes them perfect for bowling pins or steel shooting. Weight absorbs recoil as does that big grip. Go ahead and feed it your hot hand-loads, you can still get a fast follow-up shot 'cause the muzzle doesn't move much. I've carried my 639 but it does require a ghood holster and a big stiff belt. Enjoy it for what it is. |
