The Ruger American is Ruger's best centerfire pistol design yet.

It's a much more substantial design than the elfin SR, built with military requirements in mind.

I put over 5600 rounds through one, as fast & hard as I could, with no cleaning & no lube beyond the initial lubing, and it ran like a champ, despite being bone dry for the last 4500 rounds.

Rugers will never be taken seriously by military or LE buyers, because they took so long to produce a "serious" pistol.
They were always slow to keep up.

Now that the American has arrived, Ruger finally does have a professional-grade centerfire pistol.
The SR9 simply does not compare.
