Based on my experience, there is a very strong chance that either choice will need to go back for repair or replacement, so part of your comparison should be to look a the warranty terms. I am out of luck on a $700 street price Cimarron, because it was disassembled enough to analyze the problem and determine that it was something Cimarron should fix. My several dealings with Ruger were much more fair and satisfying, as long as it was a gun still in production or new enough for parts to be available.
Huh?
New Model Rugers
Three Screw Rugers.
None has ever had to go back to the mother ship for repair.
I did have a Cimarron/Uberti Cattleman at one point that had a problem, and should have gone back to the factory. But I bought it used, so I doubt they would have done anything about it.
The only Uberti I have left is this one. Never had a problem with it.
