So who still buys Ruger's?

Since Ruger supported the first 'assault weapon' ban and is getting ready to switch over to supply their Mini-14/30 to overseas and law enforcement here only......Who still supports them? They are already giving in to the Second Ban and it hasn't even been enacted yet.
I will never buy another Ruger firearm again. Corporate America can kiss my .....cat.

It's pure asinine to make a statement like this without having any evidence to back it up. You obviouly don't know anything about why Bill Ruger said what he said. The original ban was on all guns not just handguns. Bill Ruger helped reduce it to just hanguns. I did the Research.

The only good piece they built was the 10/22, even though the mounting of the barrel to the aluminum reciever has a bit to be desired, cause its so easy to strip out.
Their handguns and rifle (again IMHO), are crude in looks and function compared to the Remington, Winchester and others.
Not that Smith & Wesson is that much better in hand guns.
I prefer rifles bySako, Weatherby, Remington & Winchester, in handguns Sig's & HK, due to the fit & finnish.
Are American gun makers becoming second class compared to the Euro's?

I consider my Rugers to be excellent quality for the price and then some. That's with the P models in 9mm and 45, my 357 Speed Six and Security Six, as well as both long and short bbl's in the 22 lineup. In fact I have nothing but good to say on the Mini as well. No it's not a 300 yd shooter, but does what it does well.
Never had a breakdown and have owned several for over 30-years.
As for politics, I'm not voting for Ruger, I'm buying their guns to shoot! And, they do it well. [^] JMO

Sounds like someone is trying to sell some Mini 14/30's--I've heard irresponsible dealers make comments like that before when I've glanced at the Mini's in shops or at shows, "Ruger's going to be banning those, so you better buy one now..."
Give me a break! The sort of nonsense people will spread to try to make a sale!

I'm hoping that the 45LC conversion cylinder(s) hold up half as well as the gun itself. If so, I will be one happy camper!
The other thing you've got to remember, Nitrouz, is if you're buying from a private party, the $$$ doesn't go to Ruger. This is one way to avoid confrontations between YOUR standards and "Corporate America."
Just my 2 cents worth...

In my honest opinion anybody who would make a remark like this doesn't know if their * was punched or bored!![:p][xx(]
Ugly maybe, not functional! Hardly! I own several rugers and they perform flawlessly, I plan on buying more.
What about the Superblackhawk, the convertable six, The Mark 1 and Mark 2, their all fine firearms! The list goes on!
No matter what you think of Bill Ruger, he will go down in History as one of the great firearms designers of this century!
Now that you got my shorts in a bunch, I hope your happy![:D]

I really like their Red Label shotguns, especially thier stainless/synthetic all-weather gun. I think that is a great idea.
Now, for thier bolts. I think they are good guns, but I typically opt for Remmie's.

I really have no reason to believe that Ruger has sold out anyone's 2nd Amendment rights. Where one gets that I am not sure.
