Ruger actions

[keith mokry]

I was under standing that ruger had made their own action and did not outsource it. Today a friend told me that ruger had purchased their actions from Mauser since they where a Mauser action. So what are the results ruger buys from Mauser or make their own

Doesn't matter, word on the street is the M77 is Kaput.

Ruger makes their own, always have. It's a Mauser type action, not a true Mauser.

Bill Ruger borrowed some design features and inspiration from the Mauser action, but the M77 is an in house build.

As far as I know ruger is only discontinuing the 77/Rotary mag line. Not the Hawkeye/Guide Gun models

It is not happening... Ruger has tapped into a genius marketing strategy with distributor partnerships....what you can expect are some very cool versions of the M77 coming out of the Lipsey's warehouse.

ever heard that in fact they are made by Remington lol ....

Already answered... it was a "yes or no" question.

Sturm Ruger made and makes the M77 tang safety action, the Ruger MKII M77 and Hawkeye in house.

They may be discontinuing the "77" series (the short action caliber series like .22/.17/44 mag/.357. Even then it says further down they are temporarily discontinued. This is not the M77 action that is being discussed. Back to our regularly scheduled programming...

That'd be the silliest thing in the firearms industry since Marlin sold out one of the last great American companies.

Rugers m77 is one of the best actions going.

Your friend is misinformed.

I often wonder if these are the same people that pull up to a Stop sign and wait for it to turn green.
