STURM RUGER & CO INC

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) is a firearms manufacturer and designer headquartered in the United States with operations spanning multiple manufacturing facilities. The company's website is located at http://www.ruger.com. Founded in 1949 and incorporated in Delaware in 1969, Sturm, Ruger designs, manufactures, and sells firearms primarily to domestic customers through a network of independent wholesale distributors who supply retail firearms dealers and end users including sportsmen, hunters, self-defense consumers, law enforcement agencies, and collectors.

The company operates principally through two segments: firearms and castings. Firearms represent approximately 99 percent of total revenue, while the castings segment contributes less than one percent. The firearms segment offers products across four primary categories: rifles, pistols, revolvers, and shotguns, marketed under the Ruger trademark. The company also manufactures lever-action rifles under the Marlin brand and bolt-action rifles under the Glenfield brand. Rifles constitute the largest product category, followed by pistols and revolvers. The castings segment manufactures investment castings and metal injection molding parts, primarily for internal use in firearms production, with minimal external sales.

Manufacturing operations are conducted at five facilities located in Newport, New Hampshire; Prescott, Arizona; Mayodan, North Carolina; Hebron, Kentucky; and Earth City, Missouri. The company maintains approximately 1,780 full-time employees as of early 2026, with approximately thirty percent having at least ten years of service. Nearly all product content is domestic, with export sales representing approximately five percent of total firearms sales.

The company distributes its products through thirteen domestic commercial distributors, twenty-six law enforcement distributors, and forty-four export distributors. The three largest customers represent approximately sixty-seven percent of firearms sales. All firearms undergo test-firing prior to shipment, and the company maintains a long history of product innovation and quality manufacturing. The company also maintains various United States and foreign patents and trademarks developed over decades of operations.
