I had my heart set on a Ruger P90 for almost two years. The primary use for the gun is protection, and I'd want to shoot it frequently. I am a bigger guy with man hands, so I needed something manly. I've held several brands and shot a couple as well before I decided the time was right.

Ruger P90 (Blued, Black synthetic grips for now, 4.5" barrel, holds 8 rounds, fixed sights).


Clearer picture:


The gun was $416, and with tax/fees and a box of ammo it came out to a hair under $480. I only put a few clips through it so far. It is very loud and ear protection is a must. It's very accurate, and very smooth. Everything I would want in a carried gun.
