The Ruger P85 is a large-frame, semi-automatic pistol introduced by Sturm, Ruger & Company in 1987. It was Ruger's first modern, high-capacity 9mm service pistol and marked the company's entry into the police and military pistol market. The P85 uses a short-recoil, locked-breech action with a Browning-style link system. It features a steel slide, an aluminum alloy frame, and a double-action/single-action trigger. The pistol was designed to be rugged, reliable, and affordable. The P85 was adopted by several police departments and security agencies across the United States. It was the first model in what became the Ruger P-Series pistol family.
