Designed with the latest U.S. Military standards in mind, the Ruger American Pistol is built to perform in the harshest conditions. A true American innovation, this pistol was developed through a rigorous “Voice of the Customer” process – where numerous law enforcement and military trainers, firearms experts, distributors and retailers provided input, feedback and testing in the determination of the form, function and features of this firearm. The resultant new pistol is a revolutionary platform for Ruger, one that utilizes the combination of a recoil-reducing barrel cam (which is designed to better spread recoil energy over time) with a low mass slide, low center of gravity and a low bore axis to provide an unparalleled shooting experience.

Customer Comments & Questions

Customer Reviews

(5 out of 5) Excellent value
by Jared from Bellingham, Washington on September 5, 2016

The Ruger American Pistol is an excellent pistol for the price. It shoots well and I LOVE the trigger.

(5 out of 5) Ruger American 9mm Pistol
by Robert from Parowan, UT on February 10, 2017

You can't go wrong on this deal. Ruger quality at a great price. Top it off with outstanding customer service, what else would one need?

(5 out of 5) Great new platform design
by Robert from Parowan, UT on February 20, 2017

Love this pistol and new format. The comment about shaking hands with an old friend is too true! Put over 50 rds. through it with not one issue! Unlike the other 2 guys with their new XD and Bersa who had issues a few times. I guess it is obvious by now I'm a HUGE Ruger fan. Never have FTE or FTLs with any kind of ammo! Just buy one, you'll never regret it!!

(5 out of 5) Its a semi auto polymer striker fire from Ruger
by Paul from Columbia, TN on April 27, 2017

It's exactly what you'd expect. Solid all around. Shoots straight, zero FTF. Trigger makes it go bang and that's all Ill say about that. Is it my favorite 9mm? No. Would I carry it if my preferred EDC was unavailable? Yes.

by Robert from Parowan, UT on May 12, 2017

Second review. What's not to like? This is an awesome quality pistol. S&W, Glock have nothing over this new format. I have fired all 17 rounds as fast as I can shoot and it never fails. This is my favorite gun for many reasons.

(5 out of 5) Great gun!
by Dax from Hopkinsville, KY on May 13, 2020

Great delivery in a short amount of time. Just as an aside, you will need someone to take delivery. That cost me 25, but that was my gun store.
