Well I tried to download some pics of my Virginian Dargoon 44 and a few of my Rugers but it seems as thought I've lost them somewhere. Will post when I find them.

O.K. Not sure how I did it but here they are. I was quite surprised this morning in reading more of this forum that alot of members have A high opinion of Ruger. I was skeptical to post any of my others but finally have decided to come out of the closet. I also have a Virginian Dragoon 44 mag. , A 1965 Blackhawk, the latest SR 1911, the 30+ year old Mark I and last but not least the SR 9. I am one who if I could afford one of everthing I would probably have it. Just like motorcycles I enjoy them all. Hope this is enjoyed by others since I enjoy the pics of others guns. Waiting for the next purchaseoccasion

Oh I forgot, on the butt of the VD 44 is the engraved snake with the words "Don't Tread On Me"

Rugers are great guns. There are a couple later models that seem to be so-so, but most are very well made. I've got two models myself & love 'em.

One of these days, I'd like to get a couple calibers of Virginian Dragoon, especially while the prices are still reasonable. Thanks for showing off thecool-pics

I too am a fan of most things Ruger.  Most are well made and affordable.  Would love to have there double barrel side by side shotgun but not in my budget.  R S

That SR 1911 looks like one of the very best values in the 1911 market right now.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

I too have few Rugers, I enjoy all of them from the ole 22 Standards to P-90's.

 

Thanks for sharing!  Is that 22 a government one?  Looks to be the somewhat heavier barreled!

WOW!!! I guess I'm not the only one. I've found more Ruger fansoccasion I must confess the 15-2 pac that I just purchased was a rare find and I couldn't pass it up and is also the first DW I've ever held. I wish I knew how to take as good of pics as the rest of you. Thanks for thecool-pics
