My brother in-law has one. They're reliable and rugged but don't expect great accuracy from them. I've seen them shoot anywhere from terrible to ok. However the p97 is also a .45 and delivers better accuracy for almost the same price.

Just my personal suggestion, i have fired the P90, and P89 there is nothing wrong with either gun just not a gun i would own or carry. I did not like the feel of the ruger. More of a Springfield XD / XDM, Glock, HK, and SIG fan. also both Rugers i fired around 200 rounds each thru with no problems. Have you fired one? if not go rent one befor buying, maybe you will enjoy it more than i.

My dads got a Ruger P89-9MM, and I love that gun. He's had it forever, and my dads the type of guy that will shoot the guns and never clean it, I know that gun has been cleaned at least once and that was by me, but thats probably the only time, and he's probably had it 15-20 years. Its never jammed, misfired, or had any issues ever. And we've logged a lot of brass through it.
And its probably one of the more accurate 9MM I've shot. I'm not sure I would want to carry it concealed though, its a pretty large framed pistol. But I would own one in a heartbeat.

all depends on the money.
my dad has the hk usp 9 compact and 45 expert...amazing guns. also has the xd in 45 and a cz97.
go to a range that has rental guns and shoot as many as you can. then decide.

If money was no issue I'd go HK USP 45 Sub-compact all day. I haven't priced the P90's, but I know you can get P89's dirt cheap, I would imagine it to be the same for the P90.
You can also always look at the FN Herstal FNP45. I've got a FNP40 and love it. Good mid range priced guns.
