Ruger Red Labels?

I've been looking for quite some time to add a 28 guage to my collection. This gun will be used primarily for dove and quail. I definately want an over/under or side by side. I recently found a good price on a red label on gunbroker. Does anyone have personal info or comments on red labels?

I've seen some used in 90-95% original condition for around $900. Thought that was a heck of a deal. I shoot way damn to many shells dove hunting, and need to lighten the shoulder damage a bit..

That isn't really that bad, if you find a 20 red label for 900 let me know

hey birdman if you could shoot a little better perhaps you would'nt shoot so much thus reducing your shoulder from becoming so heavily bruised

Ouch !!! Well if there weren't so many of the damn things flying around and I could concentrate on a bird instead of 20, it might be easier. I also must mention most of those shots i'm providing backup for others ....

While I prefer brownings for over/under because the red label is a little heavy (12 gauge),they are strong,well balances shotguns. There's not a thing wrong with them and built like most rugers,designed/built well.
