New Ruger Single Action .22 MSRP $250

[theweakerbrother]

I'm really digging the bronze!

Price seems high, based on reports here. Granted, that's par for the course for my most recent gun show experiences - which is why I pretty much don't bother with gun shows anymore.

If you ever forget that we are now living in a golden age of firearms, just remember this complaint about $210 being too expensive for a new single action Ruger revolver.

Handled one at my local shop. They only had the silver in stock, but I was advised they had more on order. I guess they had already sold through about 3 shipments worth.

Add me to the list for a bronze.

It was merely an observation of market forces, not a complaint. Nor did I say that $210 was "too expensive;" I merely said that the price was higher than I have seen reported elsewhere.

I'd pay $210 - if I could find one to buy!

I like the looks of it and I think it looks even better in real life.

That looks fantastic! Mine should be in either Friday or Monday. I'm not sure what color it will be, though. I'm now favoring bronze with silver a close second. Heck, I may even take it if it is black, but man that bronze really looks good!

I think it can be reasonably inferred that if one avoids gun shows because of high prices, as you stated, then the comment that the price was high could logically be seen as a complaint.

We'll call it an observation if it makes you feel better.

Snagged a "used" example in silver for $150 this afternoon. Excited to get it out to the range. Should be a fun complement to my MKIII 22/45 Lite.

Indeed we are. As we all know, guns are linked to politics and we can thank this golden age to the 2016 election. The 2020 election can continue the good times or usher in another panic. Let's hope we get an extension of the current market.

As for the Wrangler, Ruger has another hit. I'll be waiting a while to see what additional colors are offered (hoping for an OD Army edition.)

Well, Bradis got one and called me. Black. I was tempted, but decided to hold out for bronze or silver.

I had a Colt Scout w/mag cyl for many years. I loved it a lot, so much that I gave it to my son.
I’m getting one of these Rugers ASAP as I miss a 22 sa.

Went looking for a 44 Blackhawk Hunter model and came home with this. Haven't shot yet, got some yard work first. Wanted the bronze but this color looked better in person

Very tempting but I'm going to hold out for a 22LR / 22 WMR version.

Won't happen in it's current form. Ruger has already said that they have no intention to do WMR due to the lighter frame metal.

 

[Hop]

Bummer. That's right, these frames are "pot metal" correct? Didn't someone says it may not pass some States Saturday night special laws?

I have an old 22WMR Uberti already so maybe I'll get the Ruger some day.

I have an old H&R revolver that I'm very happy with so I'll be passing, but if I didn't have it, I'd be very interested in these revolvers. As for the Saturday night special laws, this revolver will not be California compliant because you can't introduce any new firearm there without microstamping. Time will tell, but I expect these revolvers to be far, far more reliable than the old Saturday night specials.

I believe Minnesota was another place it would not be legal based on melting point requirements.

Per Ruger's site:

Still showing in stock here. USDS is a listed FFL with them too, so it was easy-peasy. Just sayin'.
