Sturm, Ruger & Company: Investing Through The Long Term Has Proven Unprofitable
I rate Sturm, Ruger & Company as a HOLD due to low leisure gun sales growth and high risk-to-return ratio for long-term investment. Despite missing earnings and revenue forecasts, RGR remains debt-free, but its revenue and net income have been declining over the past decade. The company's dividend has decreased significantly, and its current yield is lower than U.S. Treasury notes, making it less attractive for long-term investors.

Sturm, Ruger & Company: A Shot At Upside
Despite past bearish predictions, current data suggests Sturm, Ruger & Company is stabilizing post-pandemic, with revenue and profitability returning to normal levels. The company faces declining gun popularity and background checks due to this stabilization, but political and economic uncertainties may drive future gun sales. Sturm, Ruger & Company's strong net cash position and low price-to-book multiple make it a potential buyout candidate.

Sturm, Ruger & Company Vs. Smith & Wesson: Which American Gun Manufacturer Wins In A Shootout?
Ruger and Smith & Wesson are both strong brands, but I favor Ruger due to its debt-free balance sheet and effective management. Both companies have low growth prospects, and neither is currently priced attractively enough to warrant investment. Ruger's management impressed me with their strategic acquisition of Marlin and working through a period of slow sales without taking on debt.
