It seems to me that most of Ruger's efforts are being directed to the polymer framed autoloader market,..which makes sense. They're what everybody wants and Ruger has decided to manufacture some that work very well but don't empty your bank account.
The LCP series was a big hit for them and the Security 9 is getting very popular.
The only Rugers I've bought in recent years is an LCP and a Security 9. I've not found any problems with either of them.
I've beaten the LCP up pretty good and it just keeps running.
Years ago Ruger introduced their Security Six revolvers to compete with S&W K frames and sold a lot of them.
They're doing the same thing by challenging Glock with their Security 9.
Ruger isn't a particularly innovative company. But they're very good at identifying a popular market segment and introducing firearms that compete with them at a significantly lower price.
I think the Security 9 is going to be one of their biggest successes.
