I love those big boxy pieces of junk! Notoriously reliable they can be had for a good deal! I tend to stay away from them because Rugers casting isnt the best IMHO but no casted gun is perfectly really. I usually go with forged frames myself and stick with high quality 1911s. However I would take a P-89 into combat for sure! By the way the P-85 had recalls on the safety so you might wanna look into yours if it had the recall mod done yet. Ruger will still honor the recall and fix your gun because its a safety related thing.
