The only thing I've had any difficulty with on this gun, is getting the rings I want for it, got those here on AO, from David Henry, just waiting for the scope now, might have

that tomorrow. PR has done well out of me this month.
I've had a few #1's now, tough not to own one, once you've had one.

You can buy a one piece Picatinny rail for the Ruger number 1.
