Yes they are collectible. You have to understand though that Ruger is the new boy on the block. Founder Bill Ruger passed not that long ago. Not sure when Samuel Colt died without researching it , but it wasn't in my lifetime. (And I am not young.) Ruger only has about 60 years of history to offer. Alot of the original Rugers are stiil in service. With the original purchaser even. Smith has been around a long time , thus the more colorful history. At least that's the way I see it.
