Ruger Red Label Reintroduced

[Mike of the Mountain]

I agree to a point Kirk. However, O/U shotguns sell like hotcakes. If someone is looking for an O/U, a new Browning or Beretta would probably be purchased before a Red Label especially at the CSMC price. Just sayin’.

Agree. It is damn hard to beat a Citori. The Toyota Corolla of O/U shotguns.

I had the opportunity to handle the new RRL 20ga. at the Shot Show last week. I was impressed with the weight, balance, and look, but was a little put off by the price point. I agree with what the group here and I think it's going to be difficult for Ruger to compete with Beretta, Browning, and Benelli in this field.

What was the price?

[CCefalu]

$3299.00 MSRP. Depending on dealer cost, we might see them on the shelves of major box stores below the advertised MSRP.

At that price point they will be discontinued in two years!

I owned a few Red Labels over the years. Nothing memorable except the 28 ga I bought new. It hit a sweet spot that was entirely differen from the rest.

Who is selling them ? Just CSMC?

I had to laugh at this because when the RBL first was announced, there was probably four times as much chatter about the possible SKB source of the RBL design than about the gun itself. I could never fathom why this mattered, since the SKB was a solid design in my opinion. About a year ago, I bought a nice little French 20 ga double from the 20's that had a broken top lever spring. I looked through some parts catalogs and found one for $5 that looked like it might fit. It was for an SKB double and it literally almost dropped in. Hmmm. Maybe the RBL was not the first knockoff of this design!

Here's one for sale to the public for $2700 + $50 shipping. The only thing I'll say is at least it has 30" barrels.
