Man, that sucks to hear, first time I have ever heard anything neg. with them!Strike 3 for Ruger...
Tried calling their customer service 7 different times over the course of 2 days and not once was I able to speak to a person. Kept navigating their menu and being told to please wait and the next available blah blah blah. Actually waited over a half hour one time before I lost my patience and hung up.
An interesting side note...
I've had my eye on this rifle for well over a year. I spent some time reading reviews and checking up on pricing and availability from multiple sources before I bought this rifle. One of those sources was Davidson's. In 300 Win Mag, the rifle was out of stock more than it was in stock with most of the suppliers, so when I saw they had 6 in stock I figured it was time to move on it. The interesting part of this story, for me anyway, is that a quick lookup through the Ruger website revealed that this rifle shipped from their factory in 2018.
How and why does a rifle that is more often than not "out of stock" with suppliers float around unnoticed in the system for the better part of two or more years?
I have my suspicions, but would like to hear what others think.
Thanks for reading
As far as sitting around or floating in the system, not likely, What likely happened was it got packaged up at Ruger and then sat in Rugers warehouse for that time, very unlikely if it went to Davidson's it would get lost or held back, they move a ton through there and there isn't room for things to sit around gathering dust! Only way things end up sitting around at their end is if there is a big recall, or a series of very bad reviews hit and vendors stop or return orders, and that's pretty rare!
