The SP-101 has to be one of the most useless revolvers made. No sense in a 5 shot snubbie that heavy

Kinda like Glocks, not so much the gun itself but a good portion of the fanboiz tend to be some really annoying jackwagons.
Doesn't look like they can make anything fast enough! Which is a good problem to have. We must also remember that Ruger is a true American success story. Bill Ruger founded the company along with Alex Sturm in 1949. They've turned a profit every year since the first. They continue to be debt-free and run on cash only.Under current leadership the company is healthy and can't build SR1911's fast enough.

The goal is to build good quality, inexpensive guns for the "workin' man". Ruger was never an attempt to produce great guns.
I'm no fan of collecting but there are lots of rare and unusual variations from the last 63yrs of production to keep Ruger collectors busy. Old Models and especially flat-tops have become highly sought-after by shooters as well. I just paid $750 for this minty 1958 Blackhawk a couple months ago.I just scratch my head when I see Ruger and collectable used in the same sentence.
At the time, the single action revolver market was pretty much dead
I agree with this and think Ruger makes a great using gun But I just scratch my head when I see Ruger and collectable used in the same sentence.
