Does anyone have information on the Ruger backlog. 6 months ago, I ordered a new model single six and haven’t heard anything from my dealer other than please be patient, its coming. I talked to an associate in one of the big chain outdoor stores and he said the backload is beginning to be caught up. Rugar; Are you out there? Will is see my new single six or should I make arrangements to leave it to someone in my will?

Call Ruger, ask for Customer Service, and politely explain your frustration. Don't know about these days, but when Bill Ruger was alive your problem would have been solved.

Just a Rummer Ruger is moving to Florida near the Colt or Kel-Tec???

If you want a single six fast, I recommend checking on Gun Broker...there's a large selection of them for sale right now.

Thanks BioGuy. I should have looked BEFORE I plunked down the cash. I paid for this 6 months ago and am now waiting. The closer we get to small game season, the more apprehensive I am becoming.

I was hoping someone on this blog in similar circumstances had gotten theirs and could pass along some news.

I suspect what is going on, is Ruger is dedicating most of its production lines to making the higher profit autos first and if/when the single six production line becomes active, the big chain sporting goods stores get the first shipments. When they are satisfied then the small gun dealers gets whats left, which means I may never see this gun.

I ran into the same problem with a S&W M&P Shield and had to go to GunBroker.com to purchase one.

I went to the Ruger web site and asked about the backlog. 2 days later I gets call from Ruger’s regional manager. That is customer service.
