As usual, FPNI. For 10 years, I paid $100/each for standard capacity pistol magazines and $30 for NIW USGI AR mag's thanks in large part to Bill Ruger. Now that Bill Ruger has passed and the company seems to have seen the error of it's ways, I once again am willing to buy Ruger firearms (10/22's, looking at a GSR). Quote HistoryQuoted:

The best thing to happen to Ruger after about 1980 was that Bill Ruger passed to his great reward.

Quote HistoryQuoted:
"no honest man needs more than 10 rounds in any gun" This, I remember it well. And Bill Clinton's thoughtful quote, in response to what should lawful gun owners do after their semi-auto guns can't be replaced? "Take up bowling and read more books". (complete with a smile and a laugh). Never will forget either. Mrs. Clinton will in all likelyhood be our next President - and I don't think she ever felt the same bloody nose Bill got from that. And she's actually competent, so buy it up now boys. But I digress away from the topic now. Also, Ruger's semi-auto pistols have never excited me. The P89 was a grade A POS, and they've never really gotten much better. They make a fine .22 pistol (Mark II, they fucked up the Mark III - for twice the price). And the 10/22 was a good gun - for the 1970's I guess. (having no lock-back in this day and age is unacceptable, lots of better options today). They make some solid revolvers, for a fair price. Their 1911 is a good gun. The mini-14 is a POS. And they're AR15, isn't an AR15. It's a piston operated rifle that is shaped like an AR15. Bill's dead, I'll not hold it against those left. But they have a legacy of a man who greedily stabbed the rest of the gun industry in the back, in exchange for a written exemption in the '94 AWD for his Mini14. I remember seeing that, right there codified into law. What a snake. The LCP is a good little pocket gun - in that it's light and cheap and basically swiped from someone else. And the pins like to walk out on you. It's a good enough pocket gun - for the price I suppose. It does work. They make some fair priced shotguns. They are a decent value, but for the most part: I just don't like their designs. And they will always have the shadow of the Bill Ruger stigma. I remember rushedly building my first AR15 one weekend in 1994. That Monday Bill Clinton signed the Ruger endorsed law, and I would have been a felon doing that, if I had waited 2 more days. he knew the AR was a better gun, and couldn't stand the thought of his crappy Mini14 being displaced by it. |

I had a bad experience with customer service. They lost a set of my barrels but I had to get corporate management involved. The whole process took countless hours on the phone and a couple months. Eventually things were made right but it was a goat rope.
Their shotguns have been sub par when compared to other shotguns at the same price point. They tried to create a shotgun that was a do it all sporting and field gun and ended up with a shotgun with the worst attributes of both guns. Heavy, odd weight balance, and the 12 GA red labels have been known to cause trigger slap to the point of making peoples fingers bleed. Also some QC issue with barrel indexing. The only exception is the red label in 28 GA, they really nailed that O/U. Any of the ruger rifles I have owned have been less accurate than say Tikka's, Savage, or Remington. Average accuracy at best, not terrible accuracy but they have not kept up with competition. I like the G100 and the only problem I have had with it is user error. I can't shot that gun worth a shit but my dad drives tacks with it. |

Everyone was scared an aggressive DOJ under Janet Reno was going to destroy American firearms businesses. Ruger said what he said. I think he thought he was fighting a fight he was worried of losing... Within the context that Barry Goldwater said that no one needs anything besides bolt-actions, Ruger was a Fudd among Fudds... But... Ruger is dead. Long since dead. The company markets to the middle-market. You can find better and worse of all their products. Top of the line? Best of the best? For middle-market, their producs are pretty good. And they market their weapons with standard capacity... |

While I disagree about the firearms being POS, I do agree wholeheartedly about Bill Ruger himself. (wouldn't go as far as the above though )
Even if his role in the AWB is exagerrated, his statements gave the Dems a hell of a lot of ammo to use against us. I enjoy the thought of him looking up at us holding pistols smaller than a canned ham and an AR with a 30rd mag and seeing the Ruger logo on them. I love the Ruger firearms I have. Fuck Bill Ruger. |

Smith & Wesson had exactly jack motherfucking shit to do with the 94 ban and I don't know why people keep thinking they do. All the manufacturers were running scared with Janet Reno calling the shots at DOJ... Smith and Wesson at one point signed an agreement with the DOJ to not sell weapons at retail locations where children could be in. That was impossible to enforce because of dealer networks. But SW was nervous enough at Reno to negotiate an agreement. Everyone was nervous. Manufacturers were nervous that the DOJ was going to hold them liable for gun deaths... You are right. Ruger on his own, ans S and W on their own didnt push the 1994 ban. They were reacting to a toxic environment for guns... |

Of over ten different model ruger guns I've owned, only two were ok, the rest turds! Mim parts , jams, innaccurate, and bluing that wore off in only a few holsterings. Crap !

Also zero aftermarket support for either My number one test when judging a gun is....does it go bang every time I pull the trigger? Never had a ruger that didn't come out top on that list. I SERIOUSLY disagree with you on Ruger sights and SR triggers. Let's go back to last week. Had a new couple over from our sons kindergarten class to throw some lead down range. His wife had not shot her (his) Glock in over a year and I had bought a SR9c for my wife since the PF9 I bought her sucked. She probably shot 200 rounds out of that glock 19 and was constantly hitting 8-9 inches POA to the left(she was a lefty). The wife unit was nailing the chest square on our targets 9 out of 10 shots. Handed the gun to my friends wife and she put every bullet within that square with no flyers. That sure wasn't the first time I sold my buddies and their wives on the SR9c. I should have bought stock in Ruger when they released that model. ETA: And let me add, I am not a die hard Ruger fanboy but I do appreciate their reliability. I have Glocks, Shields, XD's, etc. Glocks go bang every time as well but the rest of them has not for me....YMMV. |

If I have one gripe it is all the lawyer crap they put on their pistols. Both of mine have the mag disconnect removed, but the hideous chamber loaded indicators are still installed. Also the stupid warning imprinted onto the guns.

I don't understand why you continue to rationalize and mitigate anti-2A views promoted by certain individuals (Bill Ruger, Mitt Romney). Bill Ruger actively and aggressively lobbied Congress for magazine restrictions. A lot of people speculate he did this to gain a competitive advantage against other manufacturers. Regardless of his motives, he clearly despised the 2A. Here are some quotes from an interview with Tom Brokaw "No honest man needs more than 10 rounds in any gun." "I never meant for simple civilians to have my 20 or 30 round magazines or my folding stock." "I see nothing wrong with waiting periods." Another gem from Bill Ruger's proposed legislation delivered to 535 members of the House and the Senate: The best way to address the firepower concern is therefore not to try to outlaw or license many millions of older and perfectly legitimate firearms (which would be a licensing effort of staggering proportions) but to prohibit the possession of high capacity magazines. By a simple, complete, and unequivocal ban on large capacity magazines, all the difficulty of defining "assault rifles" and "semi-automatic rifles" is eliminated. The large capacity magazine itself, separate or attached to the firearm, becomes the prohibited item. A single amendment to Federal firearms laws could prohibit their possession or sale and would effectively implement these objectives. |

Ok, P89, P94, SR9, SR9c I would prefer the opinion of someone who has shot thousands of rounds of 9mm out of these guns and not talking points from random gun boards....proceed.... Must have missed where I claimed to have fired thousands of rounds out of every Ruger...
P series: horrible triggers, terrible sights and giant, heavy guns SR series: worst most crunchy triggers out of any striker fired gun. Terrible sights and too many "safety" features. Also zero aftermarket support for either Quote HistoryQuoted:

Old Bill Ruger (May satan be fucking his ass in hell) fucked us in '94. Also they make piece of shit, redneck guns. Plus Bill was a cocksucking traitor piece of shit. What makes them a piece of shit? Name a gun and I'll tell you. Kind of sad when a company has been around for 50+ years and still the only decent gun they make is a .22 pistol. I would prefer the opinion of someone who has shot thousands of rounds of 9mm out of these guns and not talking points from random gun boards....proceed.... Must have missed where I claimed to have fired thousands of rounds out of every Ruger...
P series: horrible triggers, terrible sights and giant, heavy guns SR series: worst most crunchy triggers out of any striker fired gun. Terrible sights and too many "safety" features. Also zero aftermarket support for either SR series having the worst striker fired triggers????? Lol!! Okay. I like my SR9C so much, I bought an SR45. |

"no honest man needs more than 10 rounds in any gun" A dead man said that in 1994. Get over it. I like a lot of Ruger's New offerings. Not selling to California does not hurt them in my book. I will buy 4 new Ruger's this year because of it. |
