Not really, Reelman...
Bill Ruger
loved his own "special rifle"... the #1. It was his "baby" and he designed and built it because he NEEDED and WANTED to design and build it.
Unfortunately, the new "management" at Ruger doesn't have that same "love" for the #1... possibly their "eye" is more on "PROFIT"...
not a "dirty 6-letter word" in the world of business.
Jus' my 2�...
