They just made me a happy customer yet again.
A part on my stainless Ranch Rifle broke -- it's the little bushing that holds the guide rod in place. To its credit, the gun kept firing perfectly, with the broken part and with a lot of fouling. I didn't even know how dirty the gun was, or that it was broken, until I stripped it for cleaning, because the gun's performance was the same as it is when freshly-cleaned and intact.
So I called Ruger and they sent me a replacement part, free of charge, immediately. It's a drop-in part that you remove when cleaning the gun, so it's not something I'd want or need a smith to do.
For anyone who has doubts about Ruger's "no warranty" policy, believe me, it's nothing to have any misgivings about. If it breaks, they fix it, fast and free.
