Ruger my favorite...but also 45 Million only gets you 7.75%......... They are gonna need so major financing if they do plan an eventual take over..but I sure home not.... Ruger in my opinion if fine as they are!!

45 million is a decent infusion for Ruger. They weren’t hurting but their shares were flat for most of 2024 . This gave them a nice financial boost. I’m on the fence over a foreign company owning a US company but Beretta is the oldest firearms manufacturer in the world. I doubt they are going anywhere anytime soon.

I like both Beretta and Ruger, maybe they can build something indestructible the doesn't have the aesthetics of a Hy-Point.

The difference here is that “ The Freedom Group” was nothing more than an investment group. Beretta has skin in the game.

My contention warns of getting too big, too fast, and too out of touch...ten years ago if you told me Remington would be out of business I'd have laughed in your face...Even Vista Outdoors which is a major Roll-Up with dozens of big names is/has cut some loose.
I'm not too savvy on Big Corporations and control thereof, but less than 10% ownership doesn't sound like a seat on the Board of Directors...maybe so, IDK.
