About the Ruger Red Label III
The Ruger Red Label III is the third generation of Ruger's iconic over-and-under shotgun. Available in 20 gauge with 28" or 30" barrels, it features a stainless steel receiver, premium walnut stock, interchangeable choke tubes, and automatic ejectors. The Red Label III represents a complete redesign of the classic Red Label platform.
The original Red Label, introduced in 1977, was the first successful American-made over-and-under shotgun. After a discontinuation, this third generation marks the triumphant return of an American classic.
