I've heard it all before. The HK fanboys said the same thing.

Hey bro. Don't knock it till you try it. Why are you so unreseptive to something new? Just give it a chance. I am nobodies fan boy. I own a lot of different platforms.

Damn. The grip issue, and the super long reset might be off putting. I really don't like long resets on triggers. I was hoping it would be more like my Canik TP9SA.
I have little faith in Ruger to produce a modern semi auto handgun that would realistically compete with today's best pistols.

The grip issue is the most egregious to me. I would almost be willing to give a so-so trigger a pass but a gun that likes to eat skin is just plain silly in 2016. Even the "I give up I'm tired of working on this" ergonomic design of Glock doesn't bite you.

VP70 is DAO not striker fired so your comment doesn't make sense since he was talking about striker fired, not polymer.

I know where one is for 450 if you want it. The thing has been sitting in this gun store for over 4 years now. It's cool if you like 20lb triggers.

Oh, and the long reset on the ruger I'd a deal killer for me. If I wanted a crappy long reset I would buy an HK.

Hell no. That thing,while a cool piece of engineering for the time,is uglier than you.

Just pointing out that it is still a striker gun despite its billion pound Dao trigger.
