STG 44?


If there's one thing I've become certain of it's that there's too much certainty in the world.

Just trying to use some of that military trivia I've got kicking around in my head.

coulda went there too, was in my mind when posting, didn't figure a fellow campfire member would feel the need to pick nits.

But yes, certainly not standard issue at all.

Don't worry, I got your back on where you were going. Like I said to 65x47L that was mostly me getting to pull a piece of usually useless trivia out of my muddled mess of a brain. smile

Ruger caved before their is no reason they shouldn't cave again. They just need to smell a government contract promise under their nose.

Quote
Ruger received criticism from gun owners for suggesting that rather than ban guns, that Congress should outlaw magazines holding more than 15 rounds.[8] On March 30, 1989, Bill Ruger sent a letter to every member of the US Congress stating:


"The best way to address the firepower concern is therefore not to try to outlaw or license many millions of older and perfectly legitimate firearms (which would be a licensing effort of staggering proportions) but to prohibit the possession of high capacity magazines. By a simple, complete and unequivocal ban on large capacity magazines, all the difficulty of defining 'assault rifle' and 'semi-automatic rifles' is eliminated. The large capacity magazine itself, separate or attached to the firearm, becomes the prohibited item. A single amendment to Federal firearms laws could effectively implement these objectives."

You have to go to the site, hit the contact tab on the top right, talk to the CEO, and an on-line form drops down.

Reading his crap again twists my gut into knots knowing well he sold gun owners down the road for no reason other than to maintain his profits.

Ruger has no press release stating anyting of the sort.
So far this is just rumor ran on emotion.

To my knowledge the only government contract ruger ever held was the P89's they sold to the Marshalls a decade ago.
Its not like they have the ability or capacity to actually make a product that would pass military test trails. Can you imagine running the mini through the T&E for an army contract?

I received this email response from Mike Filson at Ruger

"I think everyone should take a cautious approach to believing internet rumors. This one is false, as I imagine most rumors are these days.
