The P85 was originally developed as a replacement alternative for the U.S. The early-model P95s have fixed, three-dot sights newer P95s, P97s, and P345s have three-dot sights adjustable for windage. The P-series pistols have an ambidextrous magazine release located behind the trigger guard it can be pushed forward from either side to eject the magazine. The Ruger Police Carbine also uses P-series magazines. Ruger did not keep track of the magazine models so an older magazine may not secure in a newer frame. All P-series pistols of the same caliber use a similar magazine design, but slight modifications have been made to at least the 9 mm guns so that not all P-series magazines will function in all P-series frames. 45 ACP versions use single-column magazines holding seven or eight rounds (depending on the model). 40 S&W has a 10-round or 12-round capacity. 40 S&W versions use double-column box magazines the 9 mm has a 15-round capacity, and the.

The P series were made with a traditional double-action/single-action (DA/SA), or double-action-only (DAO) trigger mechanism.

They use a SIG P220 type locking system, and an M1911-style tilting barrel. The P-series pistols are short recoil–operated, locked breech semi-automatic pistols. Reviews have considered them rugged, reliable, and strong, though this strength comes at the price of bulk and a blocky appearance. The designs are largely based on the Browning action found in the M1911 pistol, but with minor variations, generally related to the safety mechanism and the barrel-camblock interface. The P-series pistols were designed for military, police, civilian and recreational use. The Ruger P series is a line of centerfire semi-automatic pistols made by Sturm, Ruger & Company produced from 1985 to 2013.
