P series addiction

Post by gunman42782 »

I am a P series addict, and I have a problem. Just picked up another one, one that has been elusive for me, a P93DC. It will keep my P89, P94, P95 9mms company, as well as my P90 and just acquired a few weeks ago P97! I think I am done, unless I can find a decent shaped at a decent price P85. No interest in the DAO models, or the .40 cal models. I HAVE to stop buying guns I don't need!

Congrats for adding another P Series to your gang, I am betting you will find that P85 too. It ain't always about need!! 😀

Congrats on the accusation, the P series can definitely become addictive. Hate they discontinued the, my personal opinion is the P345 was the best of the bunch.

I had the P addiction for a while but by no means have all of them. All of mine were purchased used and have been fired and retired. I do still regularly shoot my P85. Of all of them, it's my favorite. After thousands of rounds, it's maintained 1911 like reliability. I'm missing the P91, 97, and 345.

In that case Jay any offer I bid for your stuff will include 2 sets of muck boots along with the marbles. The reason for 2 sets of the muck boots will be obvious. One pair will be brand new so you can go dancing. The other pair will be well broken in for comfort. With a deal like that you have to take a chance!

As a new member I want to say that I love the P series Rugers and have for many years. I have a collection that is ever changing. My most recent purchase is a like new in box blued P89M.

The big pic is of my collection before I sold a few to help my cousin who was in the Paradise, Ca. fire. Slow insurance payoff meant me helping with available cash. At one time I did own a NIB P94DAOL. The P89M is even harder to find in like new condition. I have built the collection back up with just 9mm DAO models.

I have the P89DAO, P89M which is a DAO, P93DAO and a NIB P94DAO.
