Ruger no. 1 or Luxus model 11? UPDATE - Ruger in the works!

The standard models that Prophet River sell, come with Leupold style bases for their turn in rings. I used these bases and rings on my 22 Hornet. Not sure what rings the deluxe with the rib take.

Prefer the Ruger " 1. Well the wood is nice on the Luxus, and the hammer and trigger system are great, it feels too much like a deluxe Handi Rifle.

I have 13 #1's, and only 1 Luxus.

Added two pictures above. You have to have a very vivid imagination to compare an H&R Handi with a Mod 11 Luxus arms.
 
Good news everyone! I've come to an agreement with another member for the purchase of his no. 1 in 6mm Remington, and she sure is a thing of beauty. I'm looking forward to joining the Ruger no. 1 club, pictures to follow.

I ordered the rifle with light weight scope rings, don't know what make they are? My right thumb is weak due to an injury so I reach over to #### the hammer with my left hand. I shoot right handed no trouble at all. A left hand shooter could do the same thing with his right hand. The hammer spring is quite strong and short travel.
$2000 will not buy you a Custom Grade Mod 11. It would cost double that, now with our weak Can. $ it would even be more. Top notch quality does not come cheap. I have been offered $4000 for my rifle from two persons. I guess the exhibition Grade wood is maybe worth $2000 when completely finished. You can pick your wood from a wide selection of preshaped stocks. One more beautiful than the other. This is truly a custom firearm and nice to look at..

That kind of money gets you well into Merkel and Blaser kiplauf territory and within spitting distance of a Krieghoff Hubertus. How does the Luxus compare to those offerings?
