New RUGERS on the Horizon??
I don't know about you guys, but RUGER sent me a customer survey that I filled out online.
They asked what guns they should develop such as a Muzzle Loader (didn't they have one years ago?) and also a medium framed LCR. Even though I really want a 9mm LCR that would be lighter to carry than my past two 38+P versions or my current .357 KLCR. I can also see myself buying a Speed Six or GP-100 sized LCR in .357 or even a .44 Special. The .44 LCR would have the excellent LCR action and would probably not heat up and give sticky extraction like the Charter .44 specials I've shot. I'd probably use 5 or six Glasers, followed by these Double Tap 200 grain loads: Cheaper Cowboy type loads for practice. It took a few years for Ruger to offer the Single Actions in .44 Special, but it seems that they really want to hear from their loyal customers. On the other hand.. A six-shot medium framed LCR in .357 or .327 Magnum would actually be enjoyable to shoot with Magnum loads. However, I'm still clinging to the hope that I will be able to buy a 9mm LCR next year. Red Sox, Rugers and CZs! KEV

I got the same survey. I'd like to see them make a commander size (and in a perfect world, bobtailed) 1911.
If they make it before I save enough for a V-Bob, I'd buy it in a heatbeat. So, at the rate I've been saving, they have about 5 years to come up with something. Also, I'm fairly certain Red Sox players only start juicing after they're washed up and traded to the Yankees

Ruger makes a commander sized 1911. It's already on the market. Prices seem to be $750-$850.

I'm hoping for a 5" version of the SR9 / 40 / 45 pistols and would have one on order the day they announced it.

Alloy or steel framed pistols other then a 1911 platform in 9mm,.40 and .380. Maybe a couple of full-sized and a couple of compacts. I would like to see Rugers take on the "PPK" type .380 in a metal frame too.
I know that Poly is all the rage, but I like metal.. be it a lite alloy or full-on heavy steel... but metal all the way. |

Re: New RUGERS on the Horizon??
I'd like to see Ruger answer the Springfield XDs 45. Not based on the LC9 though... But more along the lines of an SR*c scaled down and made single stack.
More finishes/variation on the SR1911. I would also like to see a Ruger lever action rifle. |

I agree with Cheapshooter, with one tweak.
LCP in .22mag. I'd buy two. One in pink for the Mrs and one all black for me. Oh.. With a better trigger though... Not a fan of the LCP trigger when compared to other pocket guns. |

Based on the short list of what they asked, I'd suspect everything listed is in some stage of development and the survey was a teaser to whet appetites and to help them decide what to launch first. There was no place to suggest other things.
What I'd like to see is: Lightweight CCO based on the SR1911 Lever action .357/.38 and .44mag. Really would be interested to see Rugers version of the 1894CSS with a laminate stock (HINT HINT HINT Ruger) .44 Mag or .357 carbine |

Bring back the Red Label shotguns. And just generally start making shotguns. Pump and semi.

Blued SR1911
I would like to also see a Colt New Agent sized 1911. I know that the smaller this platform is made the harder it is to make it reliable, but I have not read the word "unreliable" in the same sentence about the SR1911 even once. I think they could do it. Non polymer version of the LCR, maybe something in a lightweight alloy or titanium. The LCR has such a devoted following and the people that own one seem to love it and again I rarely hear anything but excellent things about it. But there will always be those who can not bring themselves to buy a polymer framed revolver and would be perfectly willing to deal with a little bit of extra weight to have one made out of metal. I guess they do make a hammerless SP101, but I haven't heard much about it. |
