- Owner's Manual
The Security-380 is full-featured, ideally sized, modestly priced, and designed for hours of range training with minimal fatigue. The combination of easy-to-use features and reduced felt recoil will help recoil-sensitive shooters build skill and confidence at the range, and its lightweight and compact size makes it comfortable for all day carry. The Lite Rack™ system includes refined slide serrations, pronounced cocking ears and a lighter recoil spring, allowing for easy slide manipulation. Combined with low-recoiling .380 ammunition, it is the ideal pistol for training and practice. The pistol ships with two, steel magazines (either 10- or 15-round) and incorporates a lightweight slide with a fiber optic front sight and drift adjustable steel rear sight.
Firearm Features
- Lite Rack™ system includes refined slide serrations, pronounced cocking ears and a lighter recoil spring, allowing for easy slide manipulation. Combined with low-recoiling .380 ammunition, it is the ideal pistol for training and practice.
- Compact for easy concealment, yet holds a full-sized magazine accommodating 10 or 15 rounds. Fits comfortably in the hand to better distribute recoil during practice.
- Lightweight slide features a drift-adjustable steel rear sight with a vertical edge and a bright, fiber optic front sight for improved visibility.
- Utilizes Ruger's safe, reliable and proven Secure Action™ fire-control system that combines a protected internal hammer with a bladed-safety trigger. The trigger has a short, smooth pull, clean break and positive reset.
- Safety features include integrated trigger safety; external manual safety; neutrally balanced sear with significant engagement and strong spring tension; and hammer catch to help prevent the hammer from contacting the firing pin unless the trigger is pulled.
- Rugged construction with through-hardened alloy steel slide; one-piece, precision-machined fire control chassis; and textured high-performance, glass-filled nylon grip frame with accessory rail.
- Safe, easy takedown with no special tools or trigger pull required.
- Also includes: two alloy steel magazines, magazine load assist, locking device.

As a senior with arthritis in my hands, it's become painful to shoot 9mm. I've been waiting for an easy-to-rack, easy-to-shoot .380 with a higher capacity. I ordered this Ruger from SOSS and so far I love it! It's very easy to rack, has low recoil, and holds 15 rounds, and the fiber optic front sight against the black rear sight is very easy to get on target. Although I haven't had a chance to put as many rounds through it as I'd like, so far I've had zero problems. For the price, it can't be beaten!
Thanks for having it in stock. Great price and free shipping! The pistol is awesome, great for concealed carry. With it being a 380, there is hardly any recoil. The wife loves that the slide is easy to work! Overall we are very satisfied with it. Thanks again!
I bought this because it has twice the capacity of my S&W .380 EZ and features a Lite Rack System, which helps with my arthritis. Unfortunately, my firearm has not performed nearly as well as most reports suggest. I’ve experienced several issues, including light strikes, failures to feed, and stovepipes. While it works better with some ammunition than others, it still doesn’t meet my basic expectation of reliability. Occasionally, I can get through a magazine or two without issues. I’ve replaced the recoil spring, firing pin, and firing pin spring, but the problems persist. Despite thorough cleaning and lubrication, as well as disassembling and cleaning the magazines, the gun remains unreliable. Perhaps I’ve been spoiled by the S&W .380 EZ, which has always performed flawlessly with over 1,500 rounds and a wide variety of ammunition. Maybe I just got a lemon, but from my perspective, knowing what I do now, I wouldn’t have purchased this firearm.
Given that I rarely get through one or two magazines without some issues, this pistol is not reliable enough for me to ever consider carrying it. As a range toy, it’s just too aggravating with how poorly it works. It’s a no-win situation, and I made the mistake of buying it based partly on a large number of positive reviews that don't reflect the gun I received.
I wish I could sell it, but I’d feel obligated to tell the prospective buyer about all the problems I’ve had with it, and I doubt they’d want it after that. If I had gotten a good one that worked the way it should, I’d love it—but this one just isn’t reliable enough to enjoy.
