A number of dealers are holding events from what I&#8217;ve heard. You can find more on that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ruger.com\/micros\/RugerDay\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am happy to celebrate as both my first and last firearm purchased were Rugers. My first was a 10\/22 Carbine that I bought just after my 18th birthday. I paid all of $55 for it at a non-defunct local discount chain called Best Products. I wish I could say I still own that little carbine but I sold it sometime in the 1980s to pay some bills. I have since added a couple of 10\/22s to my armory including a Ruger 10\/22 International (Mannlicher stocked).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My last Ruger purchased was a SP-101 revolver in 9mm. I paid significantly more than $55 for it! I do plan to run a test on various 9mm moon clips for the SP-101 to see which works best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>October 22nd &#8211; 10\/22 &#8211; has been declared as National Ruger Day for obvious reasons.
