Some members here probably have Ruger stock. It has done very well this year. Wish I had bought more earlier. Up 7.5% today.

RGR


I just did a comparison between them and S&W for an investment class. I ended up not recommending either.


I just don't see how Ruger can grow anymore, but it's been a damn good investment over the last couple years. S&W is.... interesting.

Their numbers are all sorts of fucked up, but they could be in a good position to grow profits if outside factors don't kill them and, if they figure out how to control costs.

I bought RGR 8/4/2011 up 25% as of Friday. Not bad for 4 months. It´s already paid out two quarters of dividends too.

I first bought RGR back in the 1980's, (it was STRM, back then). I sold it too soon during the Clinton administration. Later, I made the same mistake of selling too soon during the Obama administration.

Made a nice profit both times, but did get out too soon, Oh well, live and learn.

SWHC did me well when I purchased it during 2008, and sold it a year later.

In at around $2 and sold at close to $6.50.

One of those companies that I would purchase again if a similar market event to 08 happened again. Lots of good companies were on sale the end of 08.
