I'm a fan. I have a Service 6 .357 Mag. and a 10-22, and I plan to add a Redhawk and an M77 this year.

As far as pistols and rifles, yes, in shotguns Ruger has a way to go.

Yeah, I am. The pistols fit my hand better than most other brands. I got my first 10/22 yesterday. I don't know why I waited all these years to get one. I can see me getting addicted to those lil rifles.


back when we used to eat housecats we marinated them in louisiana hot sauce and soy sauce then season them with lemon pepper........then onto the grill slow cooking them 3 hours........excellent folded in tortillas and pico de gallo----Newgulf

I am a fan of ruger. I have 2 M77 rifles, and bought my wife an LC9 today.

I also hope to pick up a No.1 and a Red Label here in the future.


For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

I have a Single Six Convertable that I'll never get rid of, same goes for my 10/22 and an early Security Six. Also have a SR 556 E that I've fallen in love with. Used to have a GSR that was a solid rifle, and I really need to replace the 6" GP100 I traded a couple of years back with a 4" model.

ETA- Got a beautiful new Mk II Target today. It's a tackdriver!

Thank you geezer ranger. You are the best, brother! cheers

I bought my 1st Ruger in 1959; it was a lightweight Single six with the steel cylinder. I would not even want to hazard a guess how many I have bought, sold and still have since. Yes, they can become addicting. Many even call themselves Ruger Collectors.
I have had an FFL for over 30 years and deal exclusively in Rugers, primarily collectibles and The No.1 rifle

I have no love for a ruger. Never had one that shot good. That said....I'm thinking of giving the american in a .223 compact a try this yr though.

I became a majority Ruger because it seems they offer the best choices for quality, price, and feel.

My first was a Single 6 years ago.....Nothing else like it. A 10/22 seemed like a must have and felt and shot better than anything I picked up.

When the SR1911 came out, it just had quality fit and finish and was priced better than others. Mine feels and shoots dependably/accurately better or as well as 1911's double it's price.

My GP100 6" 357 Mag has surpassed all my expectations for an accurate dependable revolver.

SR9C is an accurate, comfortable shooting carry gun.

The 22/45 Mark III series of 22 semi autos is fantastic. Great value, accurate, dependable. Kind of tough breaking down when new but once one gets the reassemble down, not an issue.

I've not owned any Ruger centerfire rifles, but have heard mostly top notch reviews.

I just think they are a top US made product and haven't resorted to offshore parts or assembly like many other US companies have turned to doing for whatever reason. That means something, to me anyway.

I have never been a fan of any brand, but Ruger's always seemed to find a way into my safe
380 LCP
22 Single Six
25-06 M77
243 M77
12 gauge Red Label
357 revolver
9mm P85
The Red Label is the only that has given me any problems. Tends to fire both barrels at times, OUCH!
