nurkvinny Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 I have a guy bringing a P90 45 over tomorrow night to sell. Anything unique or special to look for? I will be shooting a couple mags full of cheap shit through it. It's a stainless model with a couple mags and some kind of holster. Any personal experience?

stangsn95gt Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 From what Ive heard they are a pretty reliable gun for fairly cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark1647545493 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 I have a P89 which is the 9mm version. It was my first pistol and I've shot 1000's of rounds thru it and aside from some cheap pro-mag magazine I've never had a problem with it. I love it and would trust my life with it. The heavy frame soaks up the recoil nicely. A Houge wrap around rubber finger grooved grip is a must. They run about $15. I would sick with factory mags too. They are the only mags I've ever had consistent good luck with in the P89. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drewhop Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Only thing I can add is the do feel cheap compared to some (more expensive) handguns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustlestiltskin Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) Only thing I can add is the do feel cheap compared to some (more expensive) handguns. +1 These pistols feel clunky and cheap as hell. Seem like a lil better version of a hi point in my mind. I wouldn't own one unless one was given to me. Edit: it shot fine I only meant that the P90 felt a little better then a hi point, looks/ feel wise Edited January 8, 2013 by Rustlestiltskin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodRed Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Good friend of mind has the P89. We have put tons of rounds down it without any problems. I think once he discovered that the recoil spring broke. Called Ruger and they sent him like 5 of them for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THey do feel cheap but I put close to 500 rounds thru my p90 before I sold it and never had a single problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustlestiltskin Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Did we just become besties? I think we did!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
