Which Ruger products have bad Q.C.?



How about 45 Colt's with varying under sized throats.
Easily fixable, sure.


But you have been making them for almost 50 flippin years!
It's so bad that fixing them is a standard service for gunsmiths.
To ignore such an easily fixed problem is inexcusable.

Inaccurate Mini-14's? No personal experience here. But that guns
reputation is reliability, in function, and inaccuracy.

How about all the years they made centerfield rifles with poor barrels?
Quality control? Testing?

Old Bill even said "We make hunting rifles, not target guns".
I like people that make the best product feasible.

Take Tikka.
Look at the T3. And how good it was.
A few bolt shrouds broke.
People complained about marks in the lug.

T3x!

Ruger had been F'n up 45's for decades before the T3 came out.
They still haven't changed! (Well, in my 2015)

Ironic, but they appear to be better without the Ruger's.


Bought the girls an American Rimfire
It's a cheap 22. Fine.

The finish isn't nice bluing, the stock is plastic.
Exactly what I expected.

It's a good gun.

Better than my 77/22. In actual use.
