Designed with the latest U.S. Military standards in mind, the Ruger American Pistol with Manual Safety 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.

(5 out of 5) Outstanding pistol
by from Godley, TX on

I've shot about 600 rounds of various brands with no problems. I've had this thing covered in dust and mud, and it still never misses a beat. Sights are right on for me and the trigger is just right, as far as I'm concerned. Sportsmans Outdoor price makes this one a no brainer.

I absolutely love it. Only problem is I use too many bullets. I take this baby out 3 times a week. Ruger, y'all got it going on.
