Ruger GP100 or Beretta M9?Pick one.

>>64452571You again!!!
>>64452558Ruger. I love me some 357
>>64452598But do you love .38 special?
Sig P320 X9
>>64452606no
>>64452558I'll take the GP, lawyer script and all.
>>64452813How come
>>64452910Mo is nice to shoot and all, but a GP is freaking bomb proof. It is one of the few revolvers that you can shoot pretty much forever without having to worry about something breaking. I have found that Beretta 92s tend to encounter parts breakages either really early on because US made examples are not as good as Italian ones or at high round counts when the locking block or slide start to crack. Small parts like pins and springs will quit along the way too. This is not truly unique to Beretta (except the locking block which is a design weak point) but they do seem to be slightly below par on parts durability nowadays. Guns like Glock simply raised the bar.
>>64452941Wow thanks for the detailed answer. I'll definitely buy an Italian M9 after the Ruger.
>>64452558if you don't have a duty pistol already, the Beretta will fill that holeif you do have a duty pistol you never need more than one and you should get the GP100 because it's really good fun
>>64452558wich should I buy for shooting very hot loaded 357, gp100 or sp101?wich will hold up better.
>>64453080the SP101 is a bit small for the super hot stuff, it's kind of uncomfortable to shoot that wayfrom my experience with my SP101 I specifically recommend the GP100 1771https://gun.deals/search/apachesolr_search/736676017713the 4.2 inch barrel and full underlug are the correct choice for .357 mag
>>64453080Both are overbuilt.
>>64452941you've never seen a cracked M9 slide in real life nor have you have shot any gun until parts failure. you're simply regurgitating bad things you've heard about the M9. The italian Beretta factory has just as bad of a reputation as the american factory. And it took less than 5 minutes for me to find this picture.Ruger's reputation is just as bad as Beretta's. They do not make any bombproof guns. https://www.rugerforum.net/threads/catastrophic-failure-gp-100-and-s-b-ammunition.32992/#repliesoh look! another Ruger suffered a catastrophic failure with factory ammo. Bomb proof gun amiright! https://www.rugerforum.net/threads/sp101-experience.29929/
>>64452571WRONG!Gen 3 Glock 19 mogs dagger hard
>>64453170I prefer a 6 inch barrel.
>ruger stans be like "uuuuoooohhh they can withstand such high pressures!" as they exclusively shoot .38spc range ammo through their GP100
>>64454317ur anus can withstand high pressures!: D
>>64452558
>>64452558glawk fowty >smaller and lighter than both>more powerful than both>cheaper than both>higher quality than both>looks better than both
>>64454388More powerful than .357?
>>64452558gp100 7 shot
>>64454409mhmm das rite
>>64454284We have some bad news about the pool of gen 3 glocks.
>>64454653ITS OVER
>>64452941>US made examples are not as good as Italian oneswhich is why you should buy italian ones>except the locking block which is a design weak pointnothing weak about it. It makes my dick hardeverything else you said can be said about any gun
Fawk itAfter further consideration, I'll just get both.
>>64454787Went to pawn shop and found a used Italian Beretta m9a1 with threaded barrel for less than a new us made one. Has those awfully wide tacky laser grips, Wilson combat buffer. They spent all that money and didn't even put a d spring in it
>>64454372>load size: HEAVY
>bought a GP100 years ago over a 686 because I'd always heard they were built like tanks and Smiths had become persona non grata after the hillary hole debacle>crane was poorly machined and wasn't flush with the frame (which I suppose I should have noticed before I bought it)>bluing started to wear off almost immediately>cylinder always felt looser than I would have liked>most egregiously, after 3 or 4 shots the cylinder would consistently lock up - neither trying to cock the hammer nor pull the trigger would allow it to rotate>no amount of detail stripping and cleaning seemed to address the problemMy GP100 was legitimately the only gun I've ever owned that gave me trouble.
>>64454372
>>64452558Just bought a GP 100. It’s not really comparable to a 92. I’ve carried both now and I’d pick the 92 for sure.The 92 feels a bit rattlier being a semiautomatic, but it fits much better in the waistband and carries 12. The GP 100 feels solid, but it’s heavy and I don’t want to carry moon clips.
>>64454296stupid frogposter
>>64455284>buying blued instead of stainlessfaultalso you should have sent that back, your gun was fucked up
>>64456124fuck yamudda
>>64454879Finding a part junkies project gun at a pawn shop upgraded and never fired is bizarrely common it seems
>>64452600nta, but personally I love .38 Special. Very fun little round to shoot.
>>64452558I guess it just depends what you want it for.If you’re looking for something for general fun and protection, either would fit that category.I wouldn’t personally carry either one though. 9mm ammo is going to be cheaper though,
>>64453315>The italian Beretta factory has just as bad of a reputation as the american factory.Not true. US made Berettas do have lower QC than the italian ones. A simple look at both factories is enough to understand why
>>64456850>something for general fun and protectionThis, but just wondering which to get first.
>>64452558My lucky number is 11 and don't tell me what to pick.
>>64452558Compact aluminum frame 92, not bad Original too big to stick in yo pants
>>64452571keep speaking the truth
>>64455303fukkin saved
>>64453315What a malcontent lol
>>64452558Like both but I would choose the gp100
>>64459562Any particular reason?
>>64460956revolvers r kool and the GP100 is a good one
>>64455511>The 92>carries 12what?
>>64462024you fell into a common intellectual gotcha. A beretta mag can be 15-18 and even more with extensions.When counting capacity, anything OVER a number still includes that number. So yes, at full capacity a magazine has 12 rounds, but also more.you could compare the beretta with the revolver and say "both hold 6 rounds of ammo so capacity is comparable" and be correct.
>>64462368are you a troll or the same anon doubling down on his retardation?
>>64452558Baby gunsRuger redhawk, 4.2" AND a colt 1911>>64452571>larperator gunsStrikerslop pistols are subparDGI rifles are subparThe proof is in the pudding. The US has never won a war since adopting eugene stoner’s shitty rifle and following the loss of the Mlol9mm has been afraid to even enter one.
>>64462368Kek
>>64462024*15. I haven’t used a regular magazine in so long I forgot the normal capacity.
>>64463396Though as the other guy pointed out I am technically correct.
>>64452558Beretta m9A3 in black rather than sandyou can stick stuff on it
>>64463769love minejust wish they'd made the optics cut back then
