Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Ruger No. 1-A Light Sporter in .303 British is a fine example of Ruger’s dedication to combining classic rifle styling with modern engineering. This elegant single-shot rifle features a 22-inch blued barrel paired with a bead blade front sight and folding leaf rear sight, with an integral rail to easily accommodate scope mounts for hunters and shooters who prefer optics. The heart of the design is Ruger’s Farquharson-style falling block action, a hammerless and exceptionally strong system that has earned a reputation for both reliability and accuracy. Operation is straightforward: lowering the underlever drops the breechblock to expose the chamber, and closing the lever cocks the rifle and sets it into battery. This design not only ensures strength but also keeps the overall profile sleek and compact compared to traditional bolt-action rifles. The rifle’s aesthetics match its mechanical refinement. It is fitted with a checkered walnut stock that provides both a classic sporting look and a secure grip, while the slim forend and clean lines highlight the balance and handling of the Light Sporter variant. Chambered in the historic .303 British, the rifle offers a connection to one of the world’s most storied military and sporting cartridges, making it equally appealing to hunters, target shooters, and collectors. The No. 1’s reputation for strength was emphasized by Ruger’s own Lenard Brownell, who noted the near-impossibility of over-stressing the action during testing. With its blend of traditional walnut-and-steel construction, strong action, and versatile chambering, the Ruger No. 1-A Light Sporter stands as both a practical field rifle and a piece of firearms history, continuing the legacy of single-shot rifles in a modern, reliable form.
