X1proto1: I agree to this extent - it is a shame the the folks at Ruger have put the exceptionally handsome Model #1 "on the back burner" of recent!
I go way back with Ruger #1's with my first being a very accurate and VERY beautiful Model 1-B in 6mm Remington. I bought it new and the serial number was a "lucky" 1,300!
Damn how I wish I had that one back.
I sold it to a left handed friend who pestered me for years to buy it - I finally relinquished and sold it to him with his promise that if he ever sold it he would sell it back to me - that ex-friend lied and for that reason and a couple others I never spoke to him for the rest of his life.
They don't make them like they used to (I agree with you all on that) but I wish they would at least MAKE"M!
