Welp, my new FFL confirmed it, Ruger is having production issues and a backlog at the moment. Fucking hell.


Oh and now Beretta owns ~25% of Ruger.


I have a feeling in exactly 3.1 years Beretta will attempt to buy Ruger.

I'm helping? $200 mail in rebate made my 92XI cost less than a Gen 6 Glock, lmao.

Beretta has been a good thing for the gunmaker's they've bought out. Sako/Tikka, Holland & Holland, etc. I wouldn't be too concerned ATM.

I see your POV. "Hit them with fucking cannon. no immediate follows up necessary", Right? Very "Harry Callahan", I respect that my father has the same mantra. I'd rather double tap, retain my hearing and know if I missed or the threat remains I've got another 14 chances to neutralize.

Funnily enough, I encountered the reason why i carry big guns today.

A black Bear! I tracked it around our mountain. There was a very fresh pile of scat, overturned rocks and trees stripped of bark which are the primary bear signs in the deep woods. I kept the wind in my face and worked my way around the mountain following an old sled road (animals take the path of least resistance just like us). Managed to get about 30 yards from it at my closest. If I wasn't actively looking for this bear i could have walked right into it, and this part of the woods is basically wide open. just shows how important situational awareness is.

It's good practice for Bear season. I had some 220 grain soft point round nose loaded in my .30-06.
