Ages ago, my father had a 3-screw Ruger Super Blackhawk (ie the old model sans hammer block safety). When the offer came out to have t refitted, he sent the gun in. It came back quickly, worked perfectly, and they'd polished it up (or at least it looked nicely polished to my eyes). He was very happy and his gun was mechanically more reliable.

A good friend of mine has a p-89 and he managed to destroy the ejector while cleaning it a few years ago. He called their service and explained the situation, and expected to pay for it. Ruger 2n-day'ed him the repair part with detailed instructions on how to perform the simple repair. Cost to him: nothing.

I have nothing but respect for Ruger and their products, and own a couple myself. I would not hesitate to buy Ruger in the future, considering them one of the best overall firearms companies in the world.
