Cole, not sure where you get your information regarding Rugers, but IMO and I own several you are off base. Quality is excellent. I have sent one back but it was because of a recall, not because I had any problem with it. The Smith forum has basically restricted people from talking about their lock problems on the main forum. Yes they (Ruger) do have some that go back, can you name a company that doesn't? You can't buy a car today that you won't have to take back into the shop at somepoint.
