    Meant the VP of Ruger and a couple of the guys who are responsible for the designs. They are all motorcycle riders. They designed and built a custom engraved 1911 45 for the American Legion posts here. Beautiful pistol, couldn't get a pic of it but absolutely beautiful. We rode by there headquarters today, very nice. They even have a road there named Ruger Road. Pretty nice guys, and guess they are working on a few new guns. They won't say what but did say expect to see some new items.:D

    I've owned Rugers for many years. Good and reliable wepons. No surprise that they are made from good people.

    Got two M77s, one in 270 Win and one in 338 Win Mag. Have hunted with them for years, been carrying the 270 since mid 1980s... still my favorite...

    I used to work in New Yoooork and I have been mugged three times by Rugers. Due to their reputation I handed over my wallet all three times. (JUST KIDDING!)

    :roflmao: Good one, Fatboy. I never owned a Ruger, but a friend had a Ruger .44 mag carbine they made back in the day, and he'd let me shoot it once in a while. They called it "The Brushbuster" and for good reasons, too.:cool:
