    Jailed a Ruger American!

    So, i was at sportsman's the other day looking for the new Ruger American 22. Sales dude said good luck, probably wont start showing up for nuther 3-5 months. He hates the way Ruger announces new guns before their ready to ship them. Im not surprised, been through the new gun release delays before. Next day im at local mom n pops lookin at their used rifles and make an off hand comment bout the Ruger American. Dude just walks away behind the un-aparent to me magic curtain and returns with a frkn boxed up Ruger American bolty!!! Nine more days and she's all mine! Couldn't believe it. Just a reminder to myself, don't forget the locals!

      I couldn't wait for Turners San Marcos which just had a guess of 6-8 weeks, so I paid full retail $329 at the "new" gun store, Gunthers, in Carlsbad. Good start for a new store. The bolt was tough to operate, as widely reported.

                we never had the problems in CA till the whiteys took over. We used to hunt, fish, roam, then they showed up and wanted to be civilized.............Ruined it for everyone!

                          Turner's at Fountain Valley had the Ruger American .22 on Friday. I checked it out. Seems like a well-made gun. The bolt action was nice and smooth; better than I had expected. The little devil is dancing on my shoulder.

                            I'm on the fence on buying a standard model vs the compact. Standard is in stock at my local Turners but, I hesitated on buying it since I wanted to get a side by side comparison with the compact. Is there any significant advantage on these range and/or accuracy wise with the longer barrel?
