Did not feed really well, trigger was ****, and was not accurate at all. Factory, hand loads etc. 4 to 6 inch at 25 yards. Worse than I can shoot. It was a "Had to Have" that the gun rags said was the one.. So I sold it for what I paid. My first and last Ruger Semi auto.
Pretty much my experience with the P89.....bought it the first year it was out and was thoroughly disappointed. Reliable, but not at all accurate; felt clumsy to me.
