Ruger Wrangler

[disposition-unknown]

Called the Turners in Orange, where I have a preorder on a Bronze Wrangler. I am currently sitting in the 129 spot on the preorder list, and they have been getting mostly Black cerakote deliveries, but all 3 colors are trickling in. The person who I talked to said to call back occasionally to see where I am on the list each week if I wanted to, or just wait for the call in about a month or two...

Anyone else get their wrangler in? Called turners in Kearny Mesa where I preordered from on 4/20 and the guy said they are coming in but very slowly. What gives!?

Wife picking hers up this Sunday

Went in and did my paperwork for mine on Wednesday 5/29. I had pre-ordered on 4/19. Not sure if it matters but my Wrangler is the all black one.

I ordered before 4/20 and I'm hearing August

Any idea as to why such a delay

They can only make them so fast would be my guess.

Finally got a call on Monday from turners saying they had a serial number for my pre order and I could come in and start the dros paperwork even though the gun was not in the store yet. I asked when it would be in as I would like to see the gun before I move forward just to check things over for blemishes or any major problems. The guy said tomorrrow. I though it strange they would start the 10 day wait before the gun was actually in the store. I told the Turner’s employee I would just come in Tuesday and DROS the gun then. So today I make my way to turners and get told the gun won’t actually be in till Friday but I can start the paperwork today, BUT the 10 wait won’t start till Friday!! WTF. Not happy. Told the guy today how unpleased I was and he said the other guy who called me was mis informed. Not sure if I want to make a fuss on Friday and see if they make things right.

i believe ruger is keeping production at a steady pace.

they didn't ramp up production to release this, cause they didn't know if it would have been popular.

the same happened with their PCC. i think most gun companies are weary of increasing production capabilities to have it all crash back down again. i mean ruger had layoffs even after the success of the PCC. the obama era gave the gun industry 8 years of inflated sales/demand. but since trump came into office, sales/demand have gone down to bush jr era.

for me, i'm probably looking at next year before i even get a chance to buy the wrangler with how inventory is going. just like it was with the pcc. didn't get mine until earlier this year when supply was plentiful since the demand had weaned off.

A year from now they'll be in the market place - $300 I'm sure.

Nah... they can list it but it won't sell.

Ruger will catch up soon and inventories will sit. It is a niche that got filled (really cheap and better than a Rough Rider), but I doubt it is as insane a demand as the PC Carbines were. Not everyone goes nuts for rimfire single-action revolvers... a lot of people just kind of want one and a lot of people already had single sixes or DA's they don't shoot.

[jbcolt]

I think if they had even more colors the demand would go through the roof

[Scratch705]

that is what ruger would probably do once the sales start dropping.

they will introduce either new colors, or add in adjustable sights or longer barrel length models.
