9mm revolver full#

The Ruger and the Shield have similar performance. The Ruger MAX-9 was the largest pistol but only slightly larger than the Shield, not enough to matter in an inside the waistband holster. It was also the most accurate in this test, averaging under 2.25 inches per five-shot group. Among other things, the good recoil mitigation helped make the SAR the fastest in our speed trials, by a couple of tenths of a second. The SAR 9cx was the heaviest pistol in the group and had the least recoil. This pistol was Our Pick in this match up of four 9mm pistols.
