evil dogooder Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 So some very good friends just came back from shot show with an interesting offer. They get to choose a special run of rugers but they have to garentee a certian number sold. Conditions were it had to be chambered in a currently loaded ammo and be based off of current platforms. So if you had this offer what would you choose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrison Joe, SASS #60708 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Ruger 1911 in 10 MM. Stainless, Adjustable sight version. Or the Ruger Precision Rifle, .338 Lapua. As to "guarantee a minimum sales number" - hard to do. Even big distributors are hard pressed to judge trends in the future. Good luck, GJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As to "guarantee a minimum sales number" - hard to do. Even big distributors are hard pressed to judge trends in the future. Good luck, GJ The number guaranteed is smaller than you might think. It's what they called a pilot run to see if there is any interest. The shop has had a long friendship with ruger. This isn't the first special run that came from the shop. Duece ill call tomorrow to see if the old model frame is an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. John Campbell, SASS #58165 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 How about something easy, that would definitely sell? Do a run of SR1911's, with traditional style sights, non-beavertail grip safety, solid trigger... in other words, a Ruger SR1911 that could be used in WBAS Traditional Category.

Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I wonder if cylinder would be big enough for six chambers? There are already guys that do the conversion. Very lightweight "whippy" guns. But like you mentioned you have to be mindful of cartridge OAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
