Speed minute (or two) - Ruger Security .380 versus Smith and Wesson Shield EZ 380 Performance Center

[@jtns2845]

i have the s&w ez 38acp and was looking for a decently priced ruger security 380acp with ten round mags only because i like the latter’s feel, but the ruger ship sailed. so i bought more s&w mags and practiced more with it, and i like the ez alot now. you are correct about the ez’s grip safety, i grew into it too. it’s good to see your videos despite the latest anti2a vomit from boston.

@@jtns2845 the EZ is great to shoot. I really like it, but I really like the Security too. I do whatever I can to keep the 2A community alive. Someday, we’ll have a win…

You can clearly see the difference on video in recoil between the two. I’m surprised as they seem to be about the same size and 380.

@@AK-ky3ou the security is a little thicker, and has lightening cuts in the slide, but the Shield has a ported barrel and slide lightening cuts. They’re both really good, but I can shoot the Shield a little better.

How many yards out were those targets?

[@crankygunreviews]

@@LSW_DYK-DYD only 5 yards

For some odd reason, I would rather have the Ruger. That's just between these 2 handguns, if I had to pick 1.

[@crankygunreviews]

@@bpie8390 bigger capacity is one reason… lower price is another reason. But they’re both good. I’m not the biggest fan of the grip safety but it doesn’t take much to get used to.
