I've had a Single Six for years. a friend of mine has had a 22/45 just as long. My brother has one of their 9mm semi-autos (can't remember the model). This year I picked up an SP101 and a Vaquero. Now I'm considering a GP100.
I've never really given much thought to these guns that I had experience with. They don't stand out in a gun store or in a collection. They generally aren't especially sexy. Nobody brags about owning a Ruger like one may brag about a Colt, Sig or an S&W. They don't rise to the top for any specific quality (except that they seem to be over built). They don't have outstanding finishes or super smooth triggers, or some high tech feature. They just perform their yeoman's service without any complaint. They just work well, and seem to age well, taking hours of range time and sending thousands of rounds downrange in stride.
I gotta say, I'm very impressed with Ruger's guns.
