To each his own, of course, but there aren't really very many anti-gun GUN companies around, and I prefer not to support one.

That's not a slam, just that we've got to continue to focus on keeping together what we have.

S&W knows the feeling of being abandoned, but WHO'S buying up all the .500's? Disgruntled Ruger owners?
Have all the Disgruntled S&W owners jumped ship and started buying Rugers?

Did all the "pre-'64" Model 70 owners start buying Remingtons when Winchester went to push-feed?

You get what I mean, I'm sure.
I just wanted to comment on your comment, because it really made me think about things.
I say get a Ruger and don't worry about it!

As a proud owner of a 4" blued GP, 3" blued GP, 3" stainless GP, and 3" SP-101, I will step right into the ranks here and say that the GP is as good or better than anything else out there. Put in slightly reduced-power hammer and trigger return springs, do some dry firing, and enjoy a very sweet trigger indeed. I have quite a few Smiths which I dearly love, but I gotta say the Rugers are every bit as fine and enjoyable. Frankly, I don't see why you'd even consider a Brazillian gun. Yeah, they will get the job done and if that's ALL that matters, so be it. Tauri are cheaper to buy, but if you ever decide to resell it, who would want a used Taurus??? On the other hand, buy a new or used Smith or Ruger today and there will always be people wanting to buy them from you tomorrow. (But you ain't going to want to sell them!)

The 4" is awesome, but these fixed sight 3"ers are seductive as hell... I LOVE 'em! ;-)=

I really like the GP-100 with 6" in stainless. I've been wanting one for several years, but just haven't bought one, yet. I will, someday. I ended up buying a new Colt Python the first time and a used Vaquero the next, so I think the GP-100 is the next revolver on my list. Not only do they look really "cool" with the full lug, but Ruger makes some really durable and reliable firearms (I currently own fiver Rugers).
