although many will disagree, I will personally never buy another Ruger product as long as I live. I only have 2 left in the safe from purchases prior to my Red Label 'issue'...but their refusal to fix my shotgun after initially offering it with a 'Lifetime Warranty' put a bad taste in my mouth that will never go away.
i know they employ folks in the demographic of NES, and I hope they continue to employ those people...but I wouldn't give them a nickle for a dime, let alone buy any one of the guns in their current lineup.
i'll take my .308 Remington 700 5R any day (with my Timney trigger)
