Does this belong under rifles? Or pistols or… The list covers all of the above.
What. On. Earth? It’s gonna be real hard for me to stay a Ruger enthusiast.
Black hawk and Super Blackhawk? Redhawk and Super Redhawk? Single Six family?!? For Pete’s sake!! What’s left?!? Is Ruger even Ruger any more?
What will this do to the value of my Rugers? I was considering selling my No. 1 in .223 (semi-bull “varmint” bbl)

I was kinda shocked! I have an SR1911, Redhawk 44, and an old P89 9mm. Love my Rugers but yeah...this seems like bad news!

They're just responding to the current market. Us geezers are dying off and the younger crowd is tending towards the semi autos for several reasons. Mag capacity, price, and cost of ammo (9mm is cheap, 38spl isn't) are things that come to mind.
Also, Ruger built firearms that were VERY durable, so as we fade away there's a lot of good used ones on the market, at least until the panic subsides and they quit being rare/collector items/oh my gosh, get one while you still can!
