Thanks all for the positive comments. Glad you like it.

Dennis, any more pictures of your no.1 or other guns you have remodelled or customised ?

I can count that high. And I didn't say I killed them all, I didn't even kill 20% of them. The previous owner was the game manager on a 28,500 acre plantation adjoining me, and it was the rifle he used for nearly twenty years to cull does for the plantation, on tags, and kill hogs.

If it's boasting I'm boasting on him, not me.

Bonny,
I can photograph and post a Satterlee-actioned Mauser that I built several years ago if you are interested. It is a .404 Jeffery.

I'm an amateur gunmaker and not particularly prolific.

Bonny,
Here is an image of the rifle action top and a close up of the grip.

Thank you Dennis, love the cch !

So what is the TRUTH ?

Are Ruger No. 1's DISCONTINUED ?

Yes, they're gone, and Ruger is rounding up all the used ones and destroying them too. Then they plan to round up all photographs or evidence of their existence and destroy those also!
It's like the Nazis and their reign of terror. I think Ruger is tired of all the myths and rumors, so just going to remove all signs of the No. 1 now.
I'm burying mine in the backyard, so nobody ever finds it.

I'm confused gold40, you started this thread, were you spread rumor or talking from a point of knowledge? Your first comment seemed to say the later yet know you seem to be coming from the former.

Any frankly who cares?

The facts seem unclear. I have read several places that the Ruger No. 1's were being discontinued. Some postimgs say that is not true; other say it is true.

I recently bought a new one in 30-06. I had owned others in the past, but had traded them.

They are nice guns.
