Just like ijustdontknow said, "Beautiful". I've owned a few Red Label's over the many years I've shot skeet (my dream gun was an older version of 12 ga with fixed chokes at skeet/skeet) Apparently they made a few of them, but only a few. Skeet shooters seemed to think that they were too heavy, but not I. You also have a beautiful straight stock model. Like I've always wanted but never could seem to acquire. Good luck with your new gun, in the field, in the range, and with your choke tube acquisition. You could check with Ruger?, But I'm thinking they're probably out so maybe Brownells could help you out? Smithy.

There is an older 12 ga fixed choke skt/skt red label where I bought this. 26 inch barrels with the red pad. I could check and help set up a dealer transfer if you are interested. Can't remember what they wanted but I think about $900.

That is an excellent deal and well worth the price jimdgreat1, but unfortunately my diabetic complications and health condition presently prevent me from being able to hold up a long arm (thus my collection of short barreled handguns) to get off a shot. It first affected me when I was shooting cowboy action in SASS. I'd get 100% with my pistols and usually 30-50% at best with my long arms towards the end of my SASS shooting. I'd love to have that gun, but my target shooting and bird hunting days have long since passed. Thanks for your thoughts about me and the gun, but I'll have to pass right now. Smithy.

Shoot Metlhed57, If you picked up an Old Army and a Red Label (oh yes I forgot the Gold Label as well) You'd have the entire Ruger catalog in your safe. Smithy.

Maybe you could contact him to follow up if that's in your price range? Smithy.
