I bought some more today, with this one I set my bid low several days ago and made it GTC. I don't know how to time a stock like RGR. I do know I want it as cheap as I can get it "before" it goes EX on the dividend. ------------ I don't have inside info but I wouldn't be surprised if she Upped the dividend this go. I do know their business is good and they have recently had to hire extra help to keep up with orders. ------------------- What most people don't realize with this stock, is over the years she has paid over $14.20 worth of dividends( since 92 ) That's why some of the long term holders have never sold, heck she has paid back their original investment in cash several times over. While all the political rhetoric has run some people off Ruger don't make cheap Saturday Night specials, and and it hasn't hurt their business. There will always be a demand for quality and as long as Ruger stays with making only high quality guns the anti gun pundits won't hurt her. This is not a Mo Mo stock that's for sure, but I do like the dividend. Jim
