Besides the obvious (2-tone vs. blue) is anyone aware of any noteworthy differences between the performances of the Ruger 3301 SR9, and the Ruger SR9E? There's about $130 difference in price. Is the 3301 SR9 worth the extra?

James G. · Answer

The pistols are identical function wise Rick. The Stainless 2 Tone is a matter of aesthetics. I personally would get the blued and use the extra cash for ammunition and perhaps accessories..

Steve P. · Answer

They're only real difference is the barrel length. 4.1 vs 4.4. The 3301 has the serrated slide also.
