I've been looking at the purchase of an over/under in the near future. I really like the fit of the Ruger Red Label but have read more than a few comments that they have quite a recoil. Any suggestions from users? thanks.
and others said they shoot loose even though they have a mechanism in place to allow them to be opened quickly. It is one of the strongest O/U shotgun action madeand they have real walnut and not some fake walnut. Parts are reasonable and Rugers customer service is excellent. They are a great buy. I currently own a 28 gauge o/u and wouldn't even think of trading it or selling it.
I too have the Red Label in 28 gauge with the 26" barrels and the straight grip. It weighs under five lbs. andshoots unbelievably. If a gun can be sexy, this is it. Love it!
