Ruger No. 1 Articles

Ruger No.1 Articles

This is the list of Articles that I have collected over the years; mostly the early ones. I would certainly like to hear from anyone who can add to the list–especially those before 1970. I am surprised that Rifle does not have an early article, but I don’t know of it. I have just added an early RIFLE and HANDLOADER article, courtesy of my good friend Terry Wolosek.
In the interest of promoting information about Ruger No.1’s, I’d like to complete the list up through current publications. Just post feedback or a comment with the Publication name, date of the article, title, and author’s name and we will get it on the list. You will get the credit!
