Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Ruger No. 1 is a legendary single-shot rifle renowned for its unique Farquharson-style hammerless falling-block action. Manufactured by Sturm, Ruger & Co. since 1967, the No. 1 combines rugged durability with classic design. The rifle's 26-inch blue barrel offers a balance of precision and stability, ideal for long-range shooting and big-game hunting. The action is operated by an underlever, which both lowers the breechblock for loading ammunition and cocks the rifle, providing smooth and reliable functionality. This simple yet effective mechanism has earned a reputation for its strength, with Ruger's Lenard Brownell famously noting the rifle’s resilience during testing, stating that he was unable to break it even under extreme conditions. The rifle's action is further secured with a shotgun-style tang safety that operates on both the hammer and sear, ensuring safe and precise operation.
