My son shoots a Ruger M77LR MKII in .25-06 he just got last year. I know it's not a 5 lb. wonder gun :eek: but at 8 1/4 lbs. it isn't all that heavy. Ruger has a number of rifles for south-paws. Lawdog

A M77 all-weather in a true medium bore caliber like 338WM or 35 Whelen. (I wish Winchester would do the same in a factory M70.)

Mauser · « **Reply #4 on:** February 18, 2004, 08:19:20 AM »

Oops, I forgot to say that I want the M77 or M70 medium bore in a left-handed action. That was the whole point.

gewehrfreund · « **Reply #5 on:** February 19, 2004, 03:15:24 AM »

A Number 1 (or better designed Number 3) in 22rf.
A left-handed 77/22 and 77/22 Hornet
The following calibers in the #1S: 223, 225 Win., 7x57, 307Win/308, 30-30, 32-40

Mauser · « **Reply #6 on:** February 27, 2004, 09:55:40 AM »

I also want them to build a lefty 77/22. I'm not aware of any American manufacturer who builds a lefty bolt 22 besides Savage.

Rscout6945 · « **Reply #7 on:** February 29, 2004, 07:49:50 PM »

All I want is a Redhawk with a 4 inch regular or full lug barrel in that cool Target Grey color!

Tom W. · « **Reply #8 on:** March 08, 2004, 03:58:47 PM »

A lever action in .480 Ruger or .475 Linebaugh.

How about a new dual cylinder Single Six: .17 HRM & .17 Mach 2 (brand new caliber based on a necked down .22 Stinger case). :roll:

TC Shooter · « **Reply #10 on:** April 04, 2004, 03:36:36 AM »

Blackhawk Hunter in 357 mag - would fit in nicely between the 44 and 22lr versions.

GrampaMike · « **Reply #11 on:** April 04, 2004, 07:42:27 AM »

1911WB.

I bet they will by next year. And I will get one.

Wish they would bring back the XGI. You know the 308 Win semi that looks like the Mini-14 Can not beleive they did not sell enough to keep it in the line up.

scruffy · « **Reply #13 on:** April 05, 2004, 05:59:30 AM »

I don't think they sold any xgi's did they? I've seen the brosure/catalog pictures and such, cross between a m14 and mini14. Looked like a sweet setup.

later,

BIGBOREFAN · « **Reply #14 on:** April 05, 2004, 09:17:44 AM »

I was under the impression that they put out a limited number but I could be mistaken. Reguardless they should bring it out because it would be sweet gun to have.

scruffy · « **Reply #15 on:** April 07, 2004, 05:05:18 AM »

I read today that Ruger said in an amorers session (jun 2003) that they still have alot of the xgi recievers in storage and haven't forgotten about the project. They said if/when the AWB sunsets things might fall into place and the xgi might begin production. Ruger also said that the XGI takes M14 magazines. I was also surprised at all of the outside work Ruger does. Including producing components for many other manufacturers at its investment casting facilities in NH and AZ. Most notably, these are Caspian slides, H&R shotguns, M1A receivers for Springfield, Colt AR15 front sight bases and trigger parts, golf clubs, and much more. Very interesting stuff.

Later,

BIGBOREFAN · « **Reply #16 on:** April 07, 2004, 05:30:37 AM »

Thanks for the info Scruffy. Sure would like to have one of those XGI's

CzaRon · « **Reply #17 on:** April 07, 2004, 01:18:12 PM »

I'd like to see those XGI's done up to look like the M1 Garand.

Kentone · « **Reply #18 on:** April 08, 2004, 03:53:13 PM »

I would like to see the BlackHawk 41 MAG. with a 10 inch barrel.
I wrote them a letter on the matter a few years ago but no response.
The 6.5 incher still works well so I will get by.

GrampaMike · « **Reply #19 on:** April 08, 2004, 04:09:19 PM »

I would like to see Ruger bring back the #3 in 480 Ruger and all the other straight wall cartridges.

Mike

turfman · « **Reply #20 on:** April 09, 2004, 02:56:39 AM »

I'd like to see them chamber thr rsi series in something different than .243, .270, .308, and 30-06. A 35 whelen would be nice :-)

Dave in WV · « **Reply #21 on:** April 09, 2004, 03:28:27 AM »

turfman, I totally agree. My wish is chamberings in the RSI are 260 and 7-08 or 6.5 Swede and 7mm Mauser to compliment the classic European lines of the rifle. If the barrel was increased to 20" the 9.3x64 would be great. Dave

maggot · « **Reply #22 on:** April 09, 2004, 12:08:12 PM »

A mark II style pistol for 22mag and 17hmr. And a mark II in 17mach2!

Doc T · « **Reply #23 on:** April 13, 2004, 09:30:29 AM »

A convertible Bearcat with adjustable sights, preferably in stainless. A Mini-14 that is ACCURATE out of the box. Bring back the 32mag Single Six with adjustable sights, again, preferably in stainless. And as long as I am wishing, how about a double rifle based on the Gold Label shotgun that no one has seen yet. Don't know what I would do with it but I can still wish.

SLAVAGE · « **Reply #24 on:** May 11, 2004, 05:33:21 PM »

well if they make the 17 /mach 2 in a single hunter stainless an a mark 2 m77 stainless lam in 35 whelen ill take one of each thank you
all so a 357 bisly blackhawk hunter to match my 44,41, &45 im tryen to skeam the boss into leting me get

Yukon Jack · « **Reply #25 on:** May 11, 2004, 07:34:16 PM »

DocT,
I saw a few of the Gold Label shotguns at the SCI show in Reno in January. Ruger claims production has begun and we should be seeing them in orders or on shelves this summer.

I've come across a couple of Butch Searcy double rifles made on the Red Label, of course they are O/U's, but Butch did a nice job. If I recall correctly, one was a 300 H&H (I can't recall if it was the flanged Super 30 or not) another was a 375 H&H (again can't recall if it was the flanged version).

Dennis Andersen · « **Reply #26 on:** May 26, 2004, 02:36:12 PM »

I wish they would come out with a 6.5 rem mag again.

sd550 · « **Reply #27 on:** May 26, 2004, 04:14:29 PM »

A SP101 in 22LR with FULLY adjustable sights!
Redesign the Redhawk with the SRH/GP100 style grip frame and offer it with 4" and 6" full lug barrels. :roll:

jon f · « **Reply #28 on:** August 01, 2004, 02:08:31 PM »

I would love to see an RSI in 7x57 with a Bavarian style butt or a No 1 in .303 british, leaf sights and a barrel mounted sling swivel.

waterdog · « **Reply #29 on:** August 16, 2004, 12:38:28 PM »

A bolt action handgun!!!! :shock:

A 30/30 chambering in a lever and Bolt Gun. (I would buy the bolt gun, NOW!!)

A youth model in the 77/22 and 77/17. My kids need a new gun, too.

#1 in Rimfire. :grin:
