Bud's Gun Shop was excellent! Super fast shipping and product was as described. I absolutely love this gun. Very smooth feel when firing. I have put about 100 rds down range with no issues what so ever. Gun has chewed up every type of ammo I've put through it. It is a bit top heavy but nothing that impedes my ability to shoot and shoot comfortably. I feel 100% confident using this gun as a CCW. Buy this gun with confidence!

I was looking for something a little more concealable, but wasn’t really comfortable with smaller compacts. The American compact has a nice solid feel to it. This is not my first Ruger and it is exactly what I’ve come to expect, reliable, accurate and a great value for the money!

I got my Ruger American about 3 months ago and I have only run between 200-300 rounds throughout it, but I used every kind of ammo I could get my hands on 12-17 rounds at a time. I loaded up both mags and went to work. The gun had no issues with any ammo brands and I experienced no ftf/fte issues. The gun was bigger than I expected and certainly heavier, but manageable. I carry this gun in my pocket right now as I haven't found a holster I like and it is a little big for that, but I'm looking forward to more comfortable days once I find the holster I'm looking for. I changed the back strap for the smallest one (there were 3 in the case) and it feels pretty good. I like the extra weight as it feels solid and seems to help the gun feel less snappy. Take down is a breeze and reassembly is a snap. Mine shoots down and left a tiny bit, but again I need to run a few more rounds through it before I say anything bad about that. I'm a pretty big 1911 fan so I'm still getting used to this new piece. I really like the look of this weapon and the fact that I can change it by changing the piece on the bottom of the magazine. Great look and feel from a very sharp gun and Buds was fast and accurate as always.

Probably the most comfortable fitting pistol I've ever held. Almost feels like it's molded for your hand. Very soft recoil, smooth trigger, and very accurate. I took half a star away because it kept jamming when shooting federal aluminum casing fmj, but worked flawless with brass casing. Also took half a star cause after 200 rounds the trigger safety starts to pinch your trigger finger. Comes with two mags, 12 round and 17 round extension, also comes with a flat base magazine plate, in case you wanna changes from the pinky extension for concealed carry.

This gun was love at first shot! My local range had it as gun of the month for its members to check her out, so I did, and ordered mine the day after. I have shot other Rugers, Glocks, H&Ks, S&Ws, this one can only be compared with what I experienced with my high performance revolver: I had an instant connection. Shots to the point up to 15 yards (and then I assume it is me, not the gun), it has a great grouping. And I love how easy you can field strip the pistol. No tools needed at all, and all fits right back together without needing an extra hand, etc. It is a little bit big for a compact, but all the precision and handling makes you take this small disadvantage. I highly recommend this gun.

This is a nice gun. Only thing is Ruger should have sent this gun with 2 12 round mags. The 17 round mag gave me some problems. The 12 round mag worked with no problems I put 12+1 and worked fine every time. Thinking about getting the 45 ACP in this hand gun.
