Mine shot to POA with good 115 grain loads. I shot it in IDPA and carried it some in a Sparks Summer special that I actually bought for my P90. It is light and carried well in that rig. I got the thing during the magazine ban years, bought some P85 15 round mags that would jam once in a while. Found out the P85 mags weren't a directly compatible magazine even though they seemed to fit in the gun. I bought a P85 off a friend at work for 200 bucks almost new with a pair of Ruger 15 round mags, so sold the P95 and kept the after market P85 mags I'd bought. Of course, now, you can get 15 round mags for the P95.:banghead:
Gripes, the trigger wasn't as good as my P90 and accuracy was only fair at about 2.5" at 25 yard groups. That's a decent accuracy except that I was used to my P90s groups, about half that size. I didn't like the grip as out of the box, but a Hogue hand all sleeve worked fine with it to make it comfy for me. I love the Hogues I have on the P85 and P90 and the sleeve had a similar feel only the grip is slimmer and didn't really fill my hand as well.
The ups, decent combat accuracy, 100 percent reliability with anything that I fed it, lighter and more compact that the metal frame guns, and rugged build like all Rugers. It's one of the better bargains on a truly reliable wonder nine.
With the 15 rounders, I'd have kept it, but I couldn't justify a gun that large when I had a Kel Tec that fit in a pocket which had a 10 round mag capacity. It was a good gun, though, always went bang and shot well. Good thing, though, the P85 is just as good a shooter.
And, now, I've got 5 15 rounders for it. It's a heavier, bulkier gun, but not by all that much.
