<P STYLE="font: bold 14pt Century Schoolbook; margin: 0 0 11pt">Sturm, Ruger &amp; Co. (RGR) Director Sandra Froman&#8217;s Leadership
in a Controversial and Secretive Right-Wing Policy Organization</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Century Schoolbook; margin: 0 0 9pt">In a previous advisory,<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>i</SUP></FONT>
Majority Action alerted shareholders of Sturm, Ruger &amp; Co. (RGR) to due diligence we conducted concerning RGR director Sandra
Froman, a 26-year leader and past President of the National Rifle Association (NRA). We describe Froman&#8217;s role in helping
Stanford Professor William Shockley advance pseudo-scientific &#8220;theories of black racial inferiority&#8221;<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>ii</SUP></FONT>
as an undergraduate and graduate student. These facts are described in greater detail both in the Majority Action advisory and
in a <I>Mother Jones</I><FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>iii</SUP></FONT>
article.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Century Schoolbook; margin: 0 0 9pt">This shareholder advisory concerns another of Froman&#8217;s professional
relationships, this one more contemporary. RGR&#8217;s 2016, 2017 and 2018 proxy statements provide a summary of Froman&#8217;s
professional experience.<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>iv</SUP></FONT>
The summaries describe her career as an attorney, her 26-year history as leader in the NRA; and her affiliations with two non-profit
organizations, the Joe Foss Institute<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>v</SUP></FONT>
and the Mzuri Wildlife Foundation.<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>vi</SUP></FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Century Schoolbook; margin: 0 0 8pt">However, RGR does not disclose that Froman has served as a board member
and, more recently, an officer of the Council for National Policy (&#8220;CNP&#8221;). Froman started service as a CNP board member
in 2012,<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>vii</SUP></FONT> three years
before she joined the RGR Board in 2015. She became CNP&#8217;s Treasurer in 2016.<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>viii</SUP></FONT>
Little was known about the CNP&#8217;s membership until the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) published an expos&eacute; on the
organization in 2016.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Century Schoolbook; margin: 0 0 8pt">It is not known whether Froman did not tell RGR about her leadership
with CNP, or whether RGR knew and decided not to include that fact in their summary of her career and affiliations in the RGR proxy
statements. Regardless, we believe shareholders may benefit from additional information about the organization, its activities,
and its membership. Shareholders may view these facts as relevant to their decision whether Froman should continue to serve on
the RGR board.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 12pt Century Schoolbook,serif; margin: 14pt 0 13pt">The Secretive Council for National Policy Elevates Extremists
into National Policy Dialogue</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Century Schoolbook; margin: 0 0 9pt">The CNP has been described as &#8220;a key venue where mainstream conservatives
and extremists mix.&#8221;<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>ix</SUP></FONT>
CNP&#8217;s late co-founder Timothy LaHaye, a pastor and author of the &#8220;Left Behind&#8221; series of apocalyptic novels,
called Catholicism a &#8220;false religion&#8221; with similarities to paganism.<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>x</SUP></FONT>
Members and supporters of the far-right John Birch Society, whose founder advanced the view that President Eisenhower was a Communist,<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>xi</SUP></FONT>
played an important role in CNP&#8217;s founding.<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>xii</SUP></FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Century Schoolbook; margin: 0 0 9pt">CNP operates in near-total secrecy. Its meetings are closed to the
public and to the media; members reportedly are not permitted to confirm their membership in CNP; and the organization has
warned members not to divulge the date or location of meetings, meeting attendees or statements made at meetings. CNP even
asks members not to attend other organizations&#8217; meetings in the same city before or after a CNP meeting.<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>xiii </SUP></FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Century Schoolbook; margin: 0 0 9pt">CNP&#8217;s 2014 membership directory, which was acquired by someone
outside the organization and posted online, reveals members (as of 2014) with controversial and extremist associations. CNP&#8217;s
work includes bringing together those members with more mainstream elected officials, under their self-described vision of achieving
&#8220;a united conservative movement&#8221; to advance national &#8220;policy leadership and governance&#8221; that reflects
their views. <FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>xiv </SUP></FONT>Froman&#8217;s
leadership of the organization suggests, at a minimum, that she is comfortable spending time with, providing a forum for, and
seeking &#8220;unity&#8221; with people who espouse extremist views; and, as part of CNP&#8217;s stated vision, advancing a national
policy agenda informed by the views of its members.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 12pt Century Schoolbook; margin: 0 0 9pt"><B>A Substantive Nexus Appears to Exist Between CNP and Froman&#8217;s
Service as a Director of RGR </B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Century Schoolbook; margin: 0 0 9pt">The CNP directory lists interest areas alongside many members&#8217;
profiles, and the interest area &#8220;Second Amendment&#8221; was chosen by 80 of the 413 members, including Froman and controversial
members such as CNP board member and former League of the South board member Michael Peroutka, who is discussed above.<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>xxix
</SUP></FONT>Gun rights thus appear to be an important concern for CNP members. This level of interest suggests that CNP&#8217;s
activities may be relevant to RGR&#8217;s business, though the organization&#8217;s secrecy precludes analysis of speeches, panel
discussions, presentations and similar activities. Current NRA lobbyist and Executive Vice-President Wayne LaPierre was also listed
in the directory as a member,<FONT STYLE="font-family: Century Schoolbook,serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black"><SUP>xxx</SUP></FONT>
further supporting the conclusion that a substantive nexus exists between CNP and RGR and/or the firearms industry. This nexus
bolsters the view that Froman&#8217;s leadership in the Center for National Policy is relevant to her role on Sturm Ruger&#8217;s
board.&nbsp;</P>
