JESS1344 508 Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) GUYS, While the effort reportedly received a “warm reception” from Ruger, other big companies like Glock and Beretta were apparently not open to the drastic changes.

JESS1344 508 Posted November 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 GUYS, LET ME EXPAND A BIT ON MY COMMENT OF "FUCKING RUGER, AGAIN"! FOR THE MEMBERS WHO WERE NOT ALIVE AT THE TIME (1993+/-), WERE TOO YOUNG TO BE POLITICALLY AWARE, OR OTHERWISE MISSED OUT ON THIS IMPORTANT PIECE OF FIREARMS HISTORY, THE BELOW LINK WILL GIVE YOU THE CHAPTER AND VERSE. THE READERS DIGEST VERSION (THAT MEANS "CONDENSED", FOR THE YOUNGSTERS) IS THAT BILL RUGER RAN HIS NOSE UP THE COLLECTIVE ASSES OF THE GUN CONTROLLERS OF THE DAY, WITH THE SPEED OF A STRIKING COBRA. A NUMBER OF TIMES....................AND HE SEEMED TO LIKE IT.............. I HAVEN'T BOUGHT A RUGER SINCE, AND THAT'S BEEN 21YRS. AGO. FOR ANYONE WITH RUGER INC., THAT'S READING THIS, IF YOU THINK THAT THE GUN BUYING PUBLIC THAT IS COGNISANT OF BILL RUGERS ACTIONS OF THE DAY, HAS FORGOTTEN THIS BETRAYAL, THINK AGAIN. AND THE CURRENT ACTIONS ON THESE NEW TECHNOLOGY GUNS JUST RE-LIGHTS THOSE EMBERS. JUST LIKE I'LL NEVER BUY ANOTHER S&W REVOLVER UNTIL THAT FUCKING CLINTON SAFETY IS REMOVED, NO MORE RUGERS UNTIL THIS CRAP IS FORMALLY RENOUNCED, APOLOGIES MADE, AND FIRM PROMISES MADE, NEVER TO TREAD ON THESE GROUNDS AGAIN.

HB of CJ 1,263 Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 Let's have fun piling on. I owned a brand new Ruger SS Mini 14. Could not hit the inside of the barn if I was inside shooting out. My USGI M1 Carbine shot TWICE as good and ran 100% of the time. My Ruger SS Mini 14 .223 went back and forth from the factory and back. They never did correct the problem. Short stroking. I did write a letter to Bill Sr. or Bill Jr., (I forgot who) about the company forgetting about us Left Handed people. Was not Bill Sr. a South Paw? No answer. However, my current highly modified 10-22 works great ... after much $tuning$ be me. I sold all my Ruger company stock ... no wait ... never had any to begin with.

It would jam so bad you would have to take the whole thing apart to clear it. That and the fact that you can only run american ammo through it made me sell the thing a few years back. Accuracy was bad too. My M-92 is more accurate than that POS Ruger ever was. When it comes to 7.62 x 39 I stick with the tried and true indestructible AK-47. The worst AK is still better than the best Ruger. Maybe I got a bad one but I'll never buy another to find out. Edited November 11, 2014 by SHOTGUN MESSIAH 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
XD45 7,124 Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 I'm to the point that I don't trust any technology. Anything "smart" is going to be used against you eventually. Whether it's your phone, your car, your gun, or whatever. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mancat 2,368 Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 IIRC the older Mini-30 series had a .308 diameter barrel. If you shot .310 dia 7.62x39 out of it (i.e. any/all foreign production) it was basically eating the barrel alive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spartacus 1,619 Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 "Excuse me Mr. Bad Man, please don't try to hurt me, I have to reboot my gun." There is no reason to complicate the inner workings of a firearm and give it more reasons not to fire when you need it to. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. And that's coming from a guy who has been in electronics and IT for a living for many years. Electronic fire control is a very bad idea. Mechanical fire control works great without any need for batteries, wires, and microchips. As far as Ruger.... I have a GP100 .357 and a SR-22 pistol that I like very much, nice high quality guns. I'd like to get a 10-22 as well. Ruger needs to be careful with supporting the anti's though, not good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nlacy 692 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 if the technology was right I'd buy it. I'm not advocating that guns be replaced with "smart guns" but I'm all for giving consumers options. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
montec 164 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I have a P95 with rail and I like it, shoots great except for with freedommunitions, crap is so dirty I can't even make it to 50rds without having to clean the dam thing. BVAC I made it probably 250rds before I thought to clean it. Yes I know should clean them more often, if it can't run dirty then I dont want it. Now if I was shooting a Moisin with surplus ammo that would get a bath every time from the range and when I looked at it. I have however decided that the only ruger I would ever buy in the future is a 10/22. I have not liked the pistols in years, heck I dont think I have ever looked at a rifle or shotgun from them ever. Next pistol on the shopping list is a M&P 9C if my bro in law ever gets one so I can put the small grip on it and see if it fits the wife's hands. If not then I'm stuck with getting her the Shield instead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rhodes1968 1,638 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Yep have one Ruger, a 10/22, basically because Remington ruined Marlin. There wont be more even though I have been tempted once. Old man Ruger may be gone but what he did still remains. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

XD45 7,124 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Ruger needs to make up their minds. Bill Ruger (I spit on his grave) is gone, and the company is under different management. They have made a strong move into the SUR market and many of us had started to forget ole Bill and his liberal ass-licking anti-freedom ways. All we know at this point is that somebody else said Ruger was open to the idea. If they move in that direction then fuck 'em for good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ruffian72 548 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 (edited) Well gentlemen, Emailed CEO at Ruger this afternoon, Mike Fifer. Must have caught his attention. Received a reply about 20 mins ago. Said group asking for their cooperation showed up at corporate headquarters, "Warm Reception" was how all persons are received by reception desk and security staff.. Letter asking for and announcing this groups proposal was accepted. a CBS TV film crew had tagged along, figuring there might be a confrontation since a previous request had become confrontational when officers of the company refused to meet with them, and persons had to be escorted off property, ALL request from these types of groups have been denied. This technology at times has been tested by most companies due to chances certain states (California) might require it, including for Law Enforcement. Fed agencies since 1st Bush has requested testing for use with Federal Agency issued weapons. Basically these people were there about 2 min due to Ruger officials previously non cooperation on this matter. Edited November 12, 2014 by Ruffian72 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ruffian72 548 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Don't think a New York CBS news affiliate would twist and maybe play you a bit?? That an anti gun biased source looking for traction. Yes, what Bill Ruger did sucked, along with Colt's temporary (no civilian sales) and a few others in the last 25 years. Like or dislike Ruger for their firearms, or their past sins, just don't be played and used. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If they weren't turned away at the door then they were "warmly received". The left are pathological liars. They will lie even when the truth will do. They wouldn't want to get out of practice.

Ruffian72 548 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Yes Darth, after quick response. I got the idea Mr. Fifer believed it would be taken as usual propaganda, considering the source. Was quick, and more than detailed about reactions with this and other groups. A "Hello, how are you, may I help you." from the reception desk or security would be considered a "Warm Reception", besides being professional business practice.

mancat 2,368 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Ruger is selling a shitload of guns in recent years. Not gonna happen. Remember that Ruger was seriously worried about evil black rifles taking sales away when they supported the gun control shenanigans of the 80s/90s. Now, Ruger sells a ton of those guns too. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RedChallenger 149 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I carry a Ruger LCP and LCR as backups. Both are really excellent. I really like the LCR, super light weight and buttery smòoth DA trigger. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
corbin 621 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I still have my Grandfather's 10/22 that he gave me when I was a teen. Picked up a 77/22 twenty something years ago too. Both have performed well, over the years. The Wife had got me a Charger pistol for Christmas a few years back (a gift certificate at a gun shop, actually). It's been ok. In the late 80s, I had a mini 14 for about a week. Couldn't get it to keep a decent group and it would typically fail to load the last round. Like I said, I had it for about a week.

Ruffian72 548 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Like many, thought, "WTH" and bit pissed when 1st read. Getting older, bit wiser?? Certain sources know which buttons to push. Especially since our rights are constantly under attack by the elite. Yet, most of time try to get to bottom of story, especially if the source could be agenda driven. Ex: 25 years ago realized had been indoctrinated and played by Gov to be a goon in the drug war "Confiscation" of property. Realized most property being seized had nothing to do with drugs, just everyday people who unknowingly did business or was related to a drug dealer. It was and still is about getting resources to fund over bloated agencies and personal power/perks for individuals. Gave up the "Cool" gear and the "Being a God" complex, spoke out, testified for plaintiffs and resigned. May God have mercy on my soul for ever being a part of it. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

She lived in a mansion with a big security gate, security lighting, the whole bit. We rolled up and I found that I could drop their security lights just by keying up my CB radio. It was a dead stock Radio Shack CB radio, nothing special. Just flat turned off all of them. The family didn't believe it until I showed them. They were not pleased with the security light system. Anything electronic can be jammed fairly easily, "smart guns" included. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
