Mag-force, good on you for getting it, you got a gun that will last several life times if it is treated well.
There are a few members here that are from the eastern TN area, as you are. Since you're in that area, you aren't that far from where the Ruger East Coast Gathering is held (Lake Lure, NC) and we'd be glad to see you stop by. It's usually in late Sept, early Oct of each year (as long as Contender will have us
) it's a great get together with Ruger people from all over the east coast. Watch for the announcement later this year.
