          I read this twice. Not a bad stream-of-consciousness ramble.

                It's a shame. I have a small hand and I was hoping to add another 45 to my collection some day when we win Pena v. Lindley. I'll have to check the gun out next time I'm in Arizona.

                  Ruger has been slow to catch up on the semi auto polymer game. With the current lineup of glocks, MPs, Sig 320,, vp9, and PPQ we have to ask ourselves if the American is any better than the models listed? I have yet to see a review that says yes.

                      I might have to consider an SR45. Looks like better ergonomics.

                      I don't like that the American Pistol's slide releases when a magazine is inserted. Never had a pistol do that. I suppose it could be beneficial though. I wonder if that design was intentional?

                        The reason it is not on the CA roster is because our brilliant legislature got the micro-stamping law passed. Any new handgun brought into the state must have micro-stamping with a unique serial number on the firing pin that imprints onto the spent cartridge. Since the technology does not exist, and no manufacturer would be foolish enough to try it, we will never see a new handgun in this state until something is done with that law.

                          Pena v Lindley challenges the handgun roster. The case is on appeal with the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals and from there on to the Supreme Court presumably.

                            Let's hope it makes it.

                              Actually if the micro stamping gets tossed out a few more handguns would make it. Mag disconnect and LCI are not difficult for gun companies to do.

                                I have one in 9mm and like it. I like the different sizing on the back straps for width. Its fired all ammo Ive fed it. Every few mags I do get a fail to lock slide back though. Only negative Ive had.
