The Ruger Red Label - I almost bought one of those. I should have bought it! Proved that Americans can make a really good quality sporting shotgun that was all business. I never quite understood why Ruger discontinued it. You can still find these for under $1,500. I don't know if Ruger still supports them, though. Ruger is stingy allowing others to make parts for their guns.DeezerShoove » 10 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ I recently sold a never-fired 38 year old Red Label OU 12 ga.
Figured I'd just bang it up bumping it around in the safe. Got a good price and some guy that likes pretty guns will be very happy with that heirloom. I just have changed in attitude over the years. My level of appreciation has waned.
So, I like a nice looking gun. Don't get me wrong. But here's something about a perfectly functioning tool with wear marks that I grew to like more.
