Ruger LC9S....Selling like hotcakes
You can not find a magazine, holster, anywhere.
Trigger is so sweet on this gun.

I'll trade you 2 mags for your trigger.
I have the old LC9 and would appreciate a swap.

I've tried most every "pocket pistol" 9mm made and never bought one until the day I tried this one - great trigger.

I found mags on Ruger's website. Found Bianchi IWB holsters are in stock at Cabellas.
Love the trigger.

I know what you mean my wife ccw's a LCP 380 she likes it I gag on the trigger pull. She feels safer with the strong trigger and states she will be belly shooting it if she ever has to use it. I can't get her to try another gun.

There must be some variability from gun to gun (like anything else, I suppose). The trigger on the one that I tried (side by side with a regular LC9) was just nothing to shout about - frankly, I was hard pressed to say the LC9s trigger was notably better than that on the regular LC9. And neither could hold a candle to that on my CM9. Honestly, based on the sample I tried, I don't get all the fuss - so it may not have been a representative sample trigger.

If you gave me this gun I would give it back, these guns are cheesy unreliable guns that are awaiting a failure to fire and a stovepipe. Shell me all you want but I would not trust my life to this piece of plastic. redesigned or not the older ones are pieces of trash, how much could they really do to make it better.
This of course is just my opinion and we are all entitled to that.

I am carrying one right now. I have an original LC9 I like very much but the S is better. It is a fine weapon. I have a Ruger marked holster that is a Mitch Rosen I bought from Ruger. I carry an extra mag in a kydex single mag carrier I got from Center of Mass. I have run several hundred rounds through it, mostly Mozambique drills, and it has run like a scalded dog.

I agree with a few others here...Simply NOT interested. They SELL mostly because they are CHEAP. The average buyer is NOT a dedicated gun person...they are simply looking for a cheap handgun. Price tag shoppers.

Hickok45 sure likes the new LC9S. Kept saying how nice the trigger was.
I've been less than interested in subcompact single stack 9s, but I've been so thoroughly impressed with Ruger's little LCP that I might take a look at this one.

What is different on the LC9s vs the LC9?

LC9s is striker fired rather than hammer fired as the original LC9.

I don't get that at all. I had the original LC9 and I now have the LC9-S. Light years of difference.

So why aren't Ravens, Lorcins, TAurus, Rossi, and Charter Arms flying off the shelves?
The Ruger LC9-S is a polymer, striker fired gun at a price point similar to others in its class, like the Shield, XD, etc. and mine has been stone reliable with factory and my reloads. A paper plate at 25 yards doesn't stand a chance.

I looked one over a while back and was pretty impressed, particularly with the improved trigger. I'm not in the market, but with a set of XS Big Dot sights it would be a right nice little gun.
Maybe if they come on sale...

I gotta say... I bought the new 9s... amazing trigger! When compared to the original LC9, cost had nothing to do with anything. Anyone that has seen me post here knows how S&W biased I am, just a good ole fanboy. But I was forced to buy a LC9 back when I was waiting for the Shield to come out. Once it came out, I gave the LC9 to my son, he tried to destroy it, fell out of his holster riding his Harley, bounced down the road then got run over a few times before he could get to it. Broke the safety lever off, but still shot and functioned perfect.
The moment I picked up the LC9S and pulled the trigger, I had to have it. Haven't had the opportunity to shoot it yet, but I will. Don't plan on it replacing my daily carry Shields or M&P's... but I'm sure I will find a situation to carry it..

If memory serves, in his review of the LC9s Pro, he said that some would consider the trigger to be too light for safe concealed carry.

They do make improvements as reports come in from the field. The later Shields are different from the early ones. The factory just fixed my Kel Tec, which had an early flaw that has been corrected.
Now, about hot cakes. It's actually several factors. Location being one. And you can't discount the value of advertising or an efficient, friendly and attractive salesperson. I'll PM you a link where you can purchase my "Make Your Hotcakes Sell Like Hotcakes" DVD.

Last Aug.- Nov., when I was looking for a new piece, it came down to either the LC9S, or the Shield. The pull weight of the LC9S trigger was a bit better (lighter) than the Shield. But, the pre-travel, over-travel, and reset of the Shield were all significantly better than the LC9S. Then, I looked around for extra mags and after-market parts. I could find mags for the Shield at several LGS. Apex makes some pretty good after-market stuff for the Shield. For the LC9S, I could not find anything local. I saw mags on-line, but no after market parts.
I tried 'em both... I bought the Shield.

Taurus, Rossi and Charter Arms revolvers DO sell well. Unless it's totally a MT thing ,but out here PRICE is a big factor in sales.
If your ruger has treated you well I'm happy for you. I am still not interested in one.

I had the opportunity to compare the LC9 and the LC9s side by side the other evening. The LC9s trigger pull is about 50% lighter and the reset nearly half as far to reach. Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I still like my RIA Compact 9mm cocked & Locked. I do have a Shield and it is O.K., but I still like the 1911 trigger.

The reset isn't a consideration for me. When shooting fast I don't have the time to search for a reset point. It is full out and start follow up take up squeeze. I find I can be faster with that technique. YMMV
The trigger on the LC9S is the nicest thing I've seen in a long long time. ( a good 1911 being the best )
I think some are talking about a LCP vs LC9 when they say the triggers are the same

I think he said loose carry in the pocket, he said it needs to be in a holster with the trigger covered, and I concur because the trigger is that light which means it is that good. A good trigger is not only safer it makes accuracy easier to obtain.

Laugh. ..or don't. Buy it. ...or don't. It's not my money. But as far as I'm concerned this gun and guns like it are at best a poor comprise. To me, these are are a waste of time and money. Until I see these (and guns like them) in 3 day courses, going through thousands of rounds without a problem I don't even look at them. To me its like buying a finicky car that you can look at and drive sometimes. Not what I consider worth it. When they become a serious contender for Sigs, Glocks, S&W and HK then I'll look at one

LOL........3000 rounds with this gun, too funny
This is a small , carry a lot use a little if ever gun. Not a "match gun"
You shoot it enough to be proficient with it, not to win a match or complete a combat or close quarter drill course.
As far as price it is fair. One I guess could buy a Sig p239 for 600-700 bucks but now that I think of it I've never seen one of those at a tactical course either.
I could go on with some of the other disparaging remarks made but they seemed more snobish than based in reality, a type of my gun costs more than your gun argument.
I've seen guys with 500 dollar stock guns beat guys with 5, 000 dollar race guns, so while price of a firearm does have its place - (I give you Hi Points as an example) at some point you are paying for advertising not firearm quality.

Not looking for a match gun but also don't believe in "carry a lot use a little". If you're using it you better be intimately familiar with it. This is why I don't consider these guns as real guns. They are for people who want an idea of owning a firearm without all the rest. I have a relative like this. He owns a Beretta 380 which he fired last time about a decade ago. I'm not betting my life on "shoot a little"
This isn't about price. I can build a gun that cost $50, doubt you'd want to bet tour life on it. None of my Glocks or HKs cost $700, in fact none of them cost over $500. Recently picked up a G17 for $359. My daily carry G19 cost $325. It's not about competition, it's about knowing your gun will last whether that's 1000 rounds or 100 thousand rounds

Tried one of the pro models (no safety or mag disconnect) and couldn't see any reason to replace my Shield. Nice trigger but not really better then the Shield.

None. I also don't drive a Yugo. Although I never owned one I read enough reviews from drivers to know I don't need or want one.
Like I said. When you prove to me its reliability I'll buy one. Till then it's a more refined Jennings

No. More like Vikers, Yost, Hathorne. But I bet you're like every other YouTuber. I shot 50 rounds, good enough!

I envy your guns at those prices, well done and imo they are all fine guns.
I carry everyday....hot ....cold...a Glock 30S. If I ever have to use it I want to know I have the most reliable potent tool on hand for use.
The lc9s may at times be used for a back up on the ankle, or a go to church
gun on 100 degree plus days.
I shoot it till I feel good about my capability usually 20-30 times each range session, every 5-6 months.
My glock 30S gets a harder work out 100 to 200 rounds every 6 months to remain proficient with it.
Then the fun gun comes out a 22 lr Smith compact, shoot it till I get tired of shooting it.
I use to have many guns, sold all but a few for self defense and in conclusion from a pratical experience type of perspective I believe the Ruger is a fine CCW firearm built well, overbuilt in fact as Ruger is prone to do .
I give Ruger credit for making a gun like this with such a fine trigger pull.
When they make it in SS I'll have another

Trigger is a big improvement from the LC9.

I have the lc9 trigger does not seem to bad more like a DA revolver than a semi-auto . Have been thinking about trying the Galloway aftermarket trigger .What I want to know has anyone compared the Galloway trigger on a lc9 to the lc9s trigger?
