A sxs double rifle with decent sights, chambered in 45/70 or 303 non glare stainless and laminate stock, with 20" barrel a truly working double, would buy one in a heart beat, something that can be used and abused.

Would be ugly to true double rifle fans, but heck, while we are dreaming.
I like that! - I would definitely buy one.   :)

I read a long time ago that Bill Ruger designed a single shot tip-up barrel 22 rimfire pistol. I just saw pictures of it in the Ruger Book and saw that it was chambered in 22 Hornet as well. I'd love to see Ruger make that a production item.

A version of the 77/44 in 454 casuall or 460 S&W. The extra power and longer range over the 44 mag. would be nice. The 460 S&W may be a legal  Deer hunting cartridge in Indiana next year?

OK, I'll add......right on about the scaled down #1, but they need a bigger one too. 1 1/8" barrel threads and 1 3/8" shank to take really big stuff. A 577 is a real pain to stuff into a #1, and bigger just won't go. An action that would take anything up to a 700NE would be just too cool!

Ruger should come out with a pump shotgun and a semi-auto shotgun. The semi should be as reliable and tough as nails as the Mini-14 and magazine fed like the Saiga.

I would like them to make the SP 101 in 9mm again and in a 4 inch barrel. Then the cylinder could be bored out to 38 Super.
Also make adjustable sights available on the SP 101.

I also want a companion rifle in stainless steel to match my Davidson's 16.5 inch blued MKII 77 in 7.62x39.

I like the rifles ruger turns out but I wish thay would  come out with some new rounds based on ther 375. I would like to see a 338,30,28,27. I wish thay would just neck down ther 375 and put a 25" or 26" bbls on them. I think thay are realy missing the boat hear!!!!!!
I shoot a 338 rum shortend to fit a ruger m77 and absolutly love that rifle.

I agree totally & e-mailed Ruger about that, which I doubt got their attention. I could be the Ruger version of a Sendero. The market is their & they have a great case to use in the 375.

  Ruger builds guns.  They'll present an idea or "want" to Hornady for example and let them go from there.   New catridges are tough to bring to market with so very few voids to fill and so many long standing, proven cartridges already in place.

Yep, we know! The thread is "The Gun I Wish Ruger Would Make", not the guns I think Ruger will make by any stetch, not even when the market is there.

With Ruger's hyped annoucement Jan 3rd, I'm still hoping for that Ruger lever-action 327 mag with a rotary magazine.

Ruger XGI... "Mini-308"

357 Magnum carbines... 99/357 or even better a lever action 96/357.

‎Is it really Zombie Max, if it's not .357 Max?

Now we're talkin' !!!   Any lever in 357 is a go.   A 327 just allows a slightly smaller package to pack in a rotary mag.

Bring back the 10/22 magnum with the steel receiver and the integral scope mounting system in a deluxe checkered walnut stock with a regular non curved 77/22 style buttplate, sling swivels, and a 20" barrel with no sights.
