They sure do and that's where I would send it.

And they probably won’t charge you. Some years ago, I sent back a Ruger Old Army for some work and they called me to see if I would be willing to accept a New in the box one. I’d.

Have him send it back to Ruger. I have a Red Label(the Woodside model) that I sent back to Ruger because both barrels were not firing(more accurately the second barrel after first shot). I also had them change the safety from automatic to manual. I don't remember being charged. They were fairly quick about it as well.
The gun works great now, but I don't shoot it much due to my Parker addiction |

I’m not certain, but I think I read somewhere that Ruger has abandoned Red Labels and may not be offering service any longer. I hope I’m incorrect.

I always liked the look of the gold label sxs they tried to sell a few years ago, but they only sold them in 12 gauge and I think they had some firing pin issues. If they ever came out with a 20 gauge, would have gotten one. Btw not a fan of the Ruger selective safety. It has to be angled one way or another. Dad has a 20 gauge red label that I loved to shoot and killed first grouse with it in Minnesota. We got into a thick covert of grouse and there must of been 6 or 7 flushes and they were going in all directions. Had one sailing over my head in a clearing about 60 feet up and had it dead to rights. Shouldered gun and slide safety forward, I thought, and gun would not fire. Safety was in the middle instead of left or right, and either barrel would have worked for that shot. Dang bird was flying so slow I had time to lower gun slide safety over and then fire a get outta here shot. That bird was lucky that day and I think knew it. When I swung up it saw me pointing gun at him and I swear I could see him eyeballing me and almost flew a circle over me and I swear was giving me the middle digit.

I've had a Red Label 20ga. Skeet from the intro date in 77 or 78. Many shells through it w/o a hitch and lots of shooters learned the basics on this gun. I think I'll dig it out and shoot it Sunday!!

Mitch at Gunsmithing LTD might be a good option too. He is located right next to the Ruger Factory. I think he used to work for them.
