Hi, I'm new to the forum, but certainly not to Rugers. I've shot and owned many over the years from the ubiquitous .22s, many of the revolvers, to the Model 77s and now the No. 1.

As a fan of falling block rifles, how could I not find myself collecting No. 1s?

Good to be here among some very knowledgeable folks!

Welcome to the ROCS website, happy that you have joined us. You sound like most of us here, love those Rugers. What part of Tennessee are you in? Lived in TN 35 years and now in NW Alabama.
Again, welcome.
Bill

Jump on in, the waters fine, good to have another fan of the Rugers amongst us. You shouldn't be too far from the Huntsville Show we're displaying at this weekend, come visit us if you can.

Thanks for the kindly welcome!

Bill, we are up on the Cumberland Plateau, not too far from I-40.

Bennett, I did see that show this weekend, and Huntsville isn't too far. It is under consideration by our executive branch...

Arcticruger, I spent most of my adult life in Alaska, and worked north of the circle for fifteen years. I was a southeast and Prince William Sound resident, so my old M77 sported a custom Rustoleum finish. Rattle-can gunsmith.

Sure hope you can make it to the show so we can meet you and the executive officer. 😉 Small show but we have fun and will have some fine Rugers on display.

Thank you! There are some incredibly knowledgeable folks posting here. I learned so much as a lurker, who knows what all I will find out when I ask questions.
