I can tell you because I still have the recipt, that in 1993 a 6601 Colt cost $649 + Tax.
And arent ruger mini's still $350-$400?
I have always liked the mini BECAUSE is doesnt look black. The same reason I like SKS rifles. A cursory clance from an onlooker doesnt cause them to dive behind a wall and dial 911. It looks like a "huntin rifle". And like it or not public perception can hurt us.

I know a cop who is actually stressing about all this. He told a friend that they are scared they are going to be told to go round up certain guns. He said the whole force will quit, because he isn't taking a bullet over this. buy him one of these... Aint nobody "rounding up" [bleep] from 62 million people. Damn right!!! I just bought another 9mm and will be getting some more hi cap mags too.....
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Lauren's undying support goes to pre-64 Winchesters. He's apathetic if anything else gets confiscated. I can't stand the f'n things myself.... If it ain't in the Madis Book, I don't like it. People buy AR's to compensate for something. I would assume perhaps fear plays arole. Sure as sh.. ain't buying them for their usefulness or aesthetics.
I watch people buy all kinds of stupid sh...
Yes,i am a gun snob. I still wonder about people that buy those things. Given that in the early days, the Mod 70 was issued to the USMC as a sniper rifle, I wonder if he will be selling his and getting say a Model 94? But wait, they were issued to the US Army at one stage...perhaps he should get a black powder front stuffer?? Nope, seems folks used these to kill each other in great numbers also..

You need to hear it, sonny. What you need to hear is a good dose of common sense. Its the indian and not the arrow dude. When you figure that out you can come on back... in the meantime you need to do some learning.

The SR-556 is a small thing for Ruger, considering its market share Ruger wouldn't be amiss in dropping it if the AR-15 market went south, so its not crazy that Ruger might have evaluated the costs of stopping production.
As for a press release, I can't see much up side for a gun maker putting its name out there right now whether is annoucing dropping a product or standing by one. More likely Ruger is seeing which way the wind is blowing.
I doubt that Ruger is that stunned, Yes they are close to Newtown, but they have had several days to think things through and come up with a set of responses. As far as legislation and any possible changes those are still unclear so its likely wait and see at Ruger. Smart move if you ask me.
The collection of taxes which are not absolutely required, which do not beyond reasonable doubt contribute to public welfare, is only a species of legalized larceny. Under this Republic the rewards of industry belong to those who earn them. Coolidge

Ruger manufactures almost everything in AZ, if I recall correctly.

Ruger is in Southport about 40 miles south of newtown.They are stunned and stung. Imo Stunned and stung from what? Ford and Chevy quit building cars because they were used in DUIs? Pharmacies close because of illegal drug use? And so on. Were I ruger, I'd offer nothing other than we are sorry to hear about the murder of innocent people by a deranged lunatic. Has nothing to do with the guns. Now how is the fishing?

Not anti-Second Amendment. Just anti assault rifle. Never agreed with the proliferation of the damned things. Here's the "conservative-republican former USAF serviceman, NRA-member pro-gun" 270Mag's e-mail to me earlier.

The NRA, Bushmaster, Ruger etc, ought to release a statement that mentions every current law that this psychopath broke in commiting this crime.
