This is a rare and finely crafted Ruger Gold Label Side-by-Side Shotgun in 12 gauge, manufactured by Sturm, Ruger & Co. in Newport, New Hampshire, in 2005, as confirmed by the serial number 460-02434. Introduced in 2004, the Gold Label was Ruger’s ambitious entry into the premium side-by-side shotgun market, designed to emulate the elegance and balance of traditional English game guns while incorporating modern durability for American sportsmen. Produced only from 2004 to 2006, with an estimated 3,300 units made, this shotgun is a collector’s prize due to its short production run and high-quality construction. The Gold Label earned accolades, including the 2002 Shooting Industry News “Shotgun of the Year” and the 2005 NRA “Golden Bullseye” Award, for its lightweight design (approximately 6.5 lbs) and versatility with 3" chambers compatible with steel shot. Its historical significance lies in Ruger’s attempt to blend classic aesthetics with robust engineering, appealing to upland hunters and clay shooters alike.
This example features 28" barrels with a serrated rib, marked for 3" chambers, and is equipped with skeet/skeet interchangeable chokes, ideal for sporting clays or upland game. The single selective trigger and automatic ejectors ensure reliable performance, while the 14 3/8" length of pull and American walnut stock with checkered straight grip and splinter forend provide excellent handling and balance. The blued barrels and stainless steel receiver are in excellent condition, reflecting careful use and maintenance, though specific finish percentages are not noted. The shotgun is mechanically sound, ready for the field or display.
