But, just ONCE before I die, I would like to read a Ruger thread without the phrase "its a tank" regurgitated for the sake of tradition. Catch phrases like that drive me nuts.

I wasn't aware it WAS a catch phrase based on tradition.

Maybe "it holds up like a tracked, armored fighting vehicle"

Do a search. Any given thread about Ruger Revolvers or P-series autos will contain the phrase "built like a tank" at least once, if not multiple times by multiple posters.

I sometimes reply with something to the effect that tanks would be much better off if they were built like Ruger firearms. I have driven and maintained tanks. I may and/or may not own one or more Rugers.

I have a Walther PPK/S and a P90. I prefer the P90. Have never had a problem with it. Very dependable.

Must be an image thing; but good for Ruger for building products that warrant those kind of responses!

Another happy P series owner here. Had a P89 for years and now I have a P95. The P89 was my training gun and went through 4000 rounds with zero issues. The P95 is my HD gun as has been through 1000 rounds, again with no issues. Great for OC but a pain for CC.

I have a KP97DC .45 that is built like a....errr....heavy duty, tracked military vehicle.

Very reliable, accurate, weight eats up recoil nicely and even easy to take apart & clean.

Trigger is just OK though. Also, Not my carry gun - too durn big.

I had a P90 and never had any problems with it. True, it was bulky but I never had it jam on me.

I had a p90dc and the gun never miss-fired once but then again, I couldnt hit anything with it either!. Swaped it for a glock. Hope I didn't start anything when I said glock!,,,hehehe!

I have a P89 which was my first handgun. She has seen 5000+ rounds with out a FTF,FTE, Or any other malfunctions. Keep in mind these are the same design just different calibers.
