I shot the new Ruger Amercian today

[tercel89]

Have any of you Ruger American Pistol owners taken out the firing control assembly yet ? If so what do you think of it ? I saw one out of the gun and it looked like it had quite a few pieces in it and kinda complex .

I have and to me it seemed like the most complex part of the insides was the parts that allow you to disassemble without dry firing. I don't have a problem with dry firing to field strip but some people do.

 I was hoping that Ruger would have went with a design like Glock with very few parts. But it seems that they went the complex route. I do like the modular design but I hate the many parts in the firing assembly .

I agree completely . That is the one thing that I would have changed. But so far so good and we shall see how well it holds up.

Were you able to shoot one when you were looking at them?

Yes .I created this thread because I got to shoot one at my LGS and made this whole thread about what I experienced.  I got to shoot 25 rds through it there. The trigger reset was horrible. I am hoping Ruger will improve it like S&W did with the M&P's .

That's right. I forgot you were the op. If you are ever down my way and want to put a couple hundred rounds threw mine to see if it is any better now you are more than welcome to give it a try .
