Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Ruger Red Label represents Bill Ruger’s successful effort to create a high-quality American over/under shotgun at a time when most models in that category were expensive foreign imports. Determined to fill a major gap in the market, Ruger invested in producing a durable, well-balanced double gun entirely in-house, resulting in a shotgun that offered the handling, accuracy, and aesthetic appeal of an over/under at a far more accessible price point. Its solid lockup, reliable mechanics, and clean lines helped the Red Label earn a strong reputation with upland hunters and recreational clay shooters who valued both performance and affordability. The combination of a bead front sight, ventilated rib barrel, and well-designed walnut stock provided classic styling and practical field utility.

The combination of a bead front sight, ventilated rib barrel, and well-designed walnut stock provided classic styling and practical field utility.
This particular example, chambered in 20 gauge with 3" chambers, features 26" ventilated rib barrels fitted with skeet chokes, making it well-suited for close-range clay targets or upland bird hunting. The checkered walnut pistol-grip stock and matching forearm offer comfortable handling, while the blue-finished provides a traditional and durable appearance. As an early-production model manufactured in 1980, it reflects the build quality and design principles that helped establish the Red Label as one of Ruger’s most admired long guns. Together, its craftsmanship, balance, and American-made construction make this Red Label a strong example of Ruger’s commitment to offering dependable, high-value over/under shotguns.
