RUGER® ANNOUNCES “INAUGURAL SPECIAL”
MINI-14® MAGAZINE PROMOTION
Southport, CT November 4, 2008 – Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE:RGR) announces an “Inaugural Special” for Mini-14® 20-round magazines that runs from Election Day to Inauguration Day.
From November 4, 2008 to January 20, 2009, fans of the Ruger® Mini-14 Target Rifles and Mini-14 Ranch Rifles, both chambered for .223 Remington, can purchase Ruger manufactured 20-round magazines (regularly priced at $39.95) for only $29.95. This special offer is only available through the Ruger On-line Store at http://www.ruger.com. Please note that these magazines are not available where state or local regulations limit magazine capacity to less than 20 rounds.
The Ruger Mini-14 series of rifles has been extremely popular since first introduced in 1974. Long considered simple, rugged, and reliable, these rifles have proven so popular around the woods, farm, and ranch that they earned the nickname "Ranch Rifle.” All Mini-14 rifles come from the factory with integral scope mounts.
For 2008 only, Ruger is offering a special edition NRA Mini-14 rifle. This rifle ships with two, 20-round magazines and a portion of the sales from each rifle is donated to the NRA Institute for Legislative Action to support its ongoing efforts in defending our Second Amendment rights. The NRA Mini-14 features a blued finish and 16-1/8" barrel in a patented black Hogue® OverMolded™ stock, and the grip cap of the stock features an NRA metal gold-tone logo.

Actually the big sale I'm waiting for is when Ruger, Bushmaster, Colt, Rock River, FN, etc. all frantically unload their inventory of .223 semi-auto rifles right before Representative McCarthy re-introduces her new and (this time) likely successful "assault weapons" ban bill.
Not to mention the final going-out-of-business sale by the Civilian Marksmanship Program, which will start the day after the new administration learns that a Federally-chartered corporation is actually selling naughty old mil-spec thingies to mere civilians, and even worse, running programs to teach impressionable youth to use Evil Instruments of Death...
You don't know that will happen.
The Democrats have held the House and
Senate since January 2007 why didn't
they try to pass it?
Bill Ruger was always a sell-out.
His guns are low quality anyway.
Even though I love my synthetic
stock 10/22 with my precious
Ram-Line 50-shot magazines.
I am serious I bought 31 50-shot
magazines all at Post-Ban Prices.
I hate the Clinton's.
And I am wondering how hellish
the Barrack Years will be?
At least the Democrats remember
that they lost the House for 12
years after holding it since 1954-1994
(40 years lol)
