ruger lc9s?

[djeddiebear]

For my final SSE i m thinking either the lc9s or the XDS 45???

My LGS has them for
Lc9s $410 OTD
XDS 45 $585 OTD

Any recs? Good prices?

FYI, if you buy the XDs 45 before the end of the month (Friday), you get 3 free additional mags and a pouch, which may help you with the difference in price.

Wait...so your LGS is selling the LC9s for <$350 and no SSE??? Where the heck is that if you don't mind me asking?

An LC9s and a XDS 45 are two completely different guns, but keep in mind you're only going to get 1 mag. with the Ruger and 5 mags. with the Springfield if you pay for it by Friday.

Hey there... yes thats kinda what the dilemma is right now. I actually have two more SSE slots but in December there is a chance I may have to go to NY for work for a month... so that SSE might be gone. So it may come down to this being my last SSE. So should I get the XDS now and get the free mags or go for the LC9s and get what is probably a gun I would carry more..

How does the LC9s compare to the XDS and Shield in size?

With the front sight being pinned... Can you change out the sights?

Good question. I'm sure a gunsmith could. You would have to "drive out" the pin.

Do a quick search about this. I could pocket carry my lc9 with cargo shorts. I haven't carried my shield (not on permit) but I don't think I would pocket carry it as it's a little bigger. I decided to pocket carry a lcp in the summer and IWB the Shield during the rest of the year.

It's tough trying to find the perfect gun that does it all. I really like my off roster shield and even the lcp. The newer ones have a better trigger and with the hogue grip, it works for my hands.

I just dros' d my LC9s today. Dry fired it a few times and it felt great. Personally, I don't think I'd want my sd gun to have a trigger that's amy shorter or lighter.

This gun feels awesome in my hand. The real test will be when I shoot it but so far so good.

I think a lot of it boils down to personal preference. I had a Shield and sold it. It just wasn't for me.

If you get a LC9s, be sure to see the guide rod recall thread.

I've heard that problem is fairly dated. Also, it's not a critical failure. If you DROS it today, it's probably new stock.
