Built in 2005, this rifle features a robust and simple falling block action design, introduced by Sturm, Ruger & Co. in 1967. The No. 1 model's design was influenced by older single-shot rifles such as the Farquharson and Martini, resulting in a firearm that is both durable and reliable. Regardless of the rigorous testing it underwent, the strength of the action remained unchallenged, as mentioned by Lenard Brownell, who worked on this masterpiece.
The Ruger No. 1 is chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum, a popular high-performance round known for its effective long-range shooting capabilities. The blued finish and American Walnut stock not only give the rifle an attractive appearance but also prevent rusting, enhancing the longevity of the gun. The shotgun-style tang safety works on the hammer and sear, contributing to the safety and functionality of the rifle.
This is not just a firearm; it's a piece of history and craftsmanship that you can own. Don't miss out on this opportunity to add a Ruger No. 1 to your collection or to your shooting gear. This could be the perfect piece you've been looking for!
