john: many millions of red label owners will no doubt disagree with you. not zacky my favorite gun either. but, you cannot argue with success. the red label is a winner!

I have two friends that had Red Labels. One a brand new 12 that had a problem with the ejector. The shell would slip by the ejector when he opened the gun. He sent it back twice and never got it fixed. He sold it. The other was a a brand new 28 gauge. The safety would lock and not move. One trip back to the factory - they didn't fix it. He sold it.
I am not impressed with the Red Labels.
Best,
Mike
I am glad to be here.

uh mike: i find your ruger bashing quite extra ordinary. ruger has made many thousands of red labels. it is one of the most popular and successful shotguns in history. so just because you know of two problems means you are not impressed with red labels...as for ruger not fixing a gun returned to the factory? unheard of, before your post. in fact, i have heard many senarios, where guns have been returned to ruger with flaws, and the sender has received a brand new gun in return.

I don't believe what I did was bashing.
The earlier guns have a better reputation than the later ones. That is the experience my friends had with the warranty.
Best,
Mike

Which is pretty well what you do with your color case hardening.
