Greetings from Knoxville, TN. After researching and shooting several pistols (Glock, Kahr, Kimber 1911 -$$$, and the SR9c) I laid down my money today on the SR9c.
(I also own a Pardner Pump Protector 12 guage.)
Haven't fired the Ruger yet; but have stripped it, wiped it down, cleaned the striker / track, and reassembled. All thanks to Youtube vids.
One question, if I may. After the gun is back together, and the slide has been racked... Should I go ahead and dry fire it to release the trigger tension, or just leave it alone? I haven't yet picked up any snap caps. I see Hickock dry fire all the time after he has racked the slide, but lots of people say it's bad for the gun.
Thanks, and I look forward to lots of education from you guys here.
Oh, one more thing. Am I a total newbie for liking the speed loader for the magazines?
Here's my Ruger. My heart wanted the all black, but I didn't want to wait for them to order it. The stainless is growing on me.
