Took the new Ruger to the range. There were a few hiccups in the first couple of magazines. A couple of FTF, at least one where the case didn't eject all the way and got caught in the chamber as the slide closed. I put about 200 rounds through it yesterday, and I tried all kinds of ammo. The cheap plinking ammo is where I had problems - I tried Gold Dot, Sig Sauer and Hornady hollowpoints, and they all fed/cycled just fine. Like I said, the problems were only in the first couple of mags. After that, the gun ate everything I threw at it. So maybe the springs needed to be beaten into submission before they operated properly.
Came home, and found my Talon grips in the mail. So I put them on last night.
That's SEXY right there..... I do find it humorous that I got my hot-weather carry gun just as the weather here turns cold and wet. It'll go into my carry rotation anyways; the Mrs. decided that she wasn't in love with her Vedder holster so she gave it to me. Also ordered a LC9 shell for my Alien Gear holster, which the Mrs. might just steal when it comes in. That's a comfortable holster. The Vedder is smaller, which will come in handy depending on what I'm wearing.
Anyways, there it is. Mine all mine.
