Ruger P95

[Varminterror]

Ruger P95 is not accurate past 35 yards

I personally wouldn’t buy a P Series pistol in 2019/2020. Ruger is no longer servicing or supporting the P Series pistols, and frankly, the pistols are fun enough to shoot and will last long enough into the future, whatever might fail will be farther and farther away from parts availability.

They were great pistols. I still keep a KP97DC handy, it’s been one of the most accurate pistols I have ever owned, and certainly tied for most reliable, if not most reliable as it is. My wife commandeered the pistol several years ago, but I remain to shoot it quite often. I’ve used it for many years as a demo pistol during the classes I have taught, and still would, other than favoring my integrally suppressed Maxim 9.

Never met a Ruger semi auto that I was ever impressed with.

Owned a P90 back in the day. It was reliable.

Every Ruger semi auto that I've fondled or shot just felt cheap and clunky.

yeah i tried to tune polish up up the trigger on the p95 but it was flawed from the get go seems to be constructed with pot metal parts?

I used to build Ruger P-Series and SR-Series at the Prescott plant. I recall all of our parts came from some foundry out East. We did all of the final machining at the Prescott plant on Fanuc 3-axis CNC machines, of which I was an operator.

Horrible, horrible place to work with extreme turnover and idiotic management.

LOL, I Machined thousands of those SR trigger bars! They came stamped and I did the final cutting out of the notches and the radius of the tip. I had a little hand held file and a grinder at my station to clean them up. I took great pride in making sure mine were as close to perfect as possible. Can't vouch for the barely English-speaking members of my team, however.

I bought a used P95 back in the spring. The decocker sear broke on it but they safety could still engage, making it a cocked abd locked P95.

I sent it in to Ruger around Memorial Day and they fixed it and returned it to me in about 2 weeks

That’s odd. I tried to replace a firing pin block plunger and extractor about 4-5 yrs ago, and Ruger said they were no longer stocking parts or servicing the P series. I sourced the parts elsewhere handily enough, but at the time, they’d said the well ran dry.

That is strange. Unless some parts are out and others are still in stock.
