To answer simply...No. Im not going to use this s the measuring stick for QC. For those that would never buy a Ruger due to this are probably buying a car that will recalled routinely. I love how people read a few bad things and they declare the whole company "crap". Give me a break. All drama and rhetoric. Your money, your right to spend it. I support your right to go elsewhere. I'd also categorize it as an emotional overreaction. I feel I earned the right to call them crap since the last three I purchased and fired had to go back to the factory to be fixed. My experiences are not unique. But it is absolutely amazing that anyone would have to return the same one at least three times and still have issues. That alone speaks volumes about a companies QC and reputation.

I put a lot of thought into this over the weekend and given my choices, I have opted to get a refund.
My main reason is both myself, and the manager at Ruger I have worked with have been through quite a bit. Her customer service has been excellent and I feel she has treated me like a valued customer. I told her in the unlikely event we had another firearm issue, we'd both probably lose our sanity and I'd rather break the cycle and just move on.
I plan on buying a BFR if I can find one in .475 Linebaugh. Mostly I plan to shoot .480 Ruger, but I really like my BFR in .500 JRH. I'm not losing my faith in Ruger, though. My SBH 4&5/8" barrelled .44 mag, last Ruger I bought, has been so amazing that my brother has already told me he will take it when I'm not looking. Great gun. I just had a bad go this time around.
