Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods. Operating results for the six months ended June 29, 2019 may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2019. These financial statements have been prepared on a basis that is substantially consistent with the accounting principles applied in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization: Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (the “Company”) is principally engaged in the design, manufacture, and sale of firearms to domestic customers. Approximately 99% of sales are from firearms. Export sales represent approximately 6% of total sales. The Company’s design and manufacturing operations are located in the United States and almost all product content is domestic. The Company’s firearms are sold through a select number of independent wholesale distributors, principally to the commercial sporting market. The Company also manufactures investment castings made from steel alloys and metal injection molding (“MIM”) parts for internal use in its firearms and for sale to unaffiliated, third-party customers. Approximately 1% of sales are from the castings segment. Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Revenue Recognition: The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , Fair Value of Financial Instruments: The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these items. Index Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications: Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
REVENUE RECOGNITION AND CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS | NOTE 3 — REVENUE RECOGNITION AND CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method, applied to those contracts for which all performance obligations were not completed as of that date. Under the modified retrospective method, results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented using the guidance of ASC 606, while prior period amounts were not adjusted and will continue to be presented in accordance with the previous guidance provided in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, The impact of the adoption of ASC 606 on revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018 is as follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 29, 2019 June 30, 2018 June 29, 2019 June 30, 2018 Contract liabilities with customers at beginning of period $ $ $ $ Revenue deferred Revenue recognized ( ( ( ( Contract liabilities with customers at end of period $ $ $ $ As more fully described in the Revenue Recognition section of Note 2, the deferral of revenue and subsequent recognition thereof relates to certain of the Company’s sales promotion programs that include the future shipment of free products. The Company expects the deferred revenue from this contract liability with customers to be recognized in the third quarter of 2019. Practical Expedients and Exemptions The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling activities that occur after control of the related product transfers to the customer as fulfillment activities that are recognized upon shipment of the goods. |

Inventory Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INVENTORIES | NOTE 4 — INVENTORIES Inventories are valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs existing at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations must necessarily be based on management's estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Because these are subject to many factors beyond management's control, interim results are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation. Inventories consist of the following: June 29, 2019 December 31, 2018 Inventory at FIFO Finished products $ $ Materials and work in process Gross inventories Less: LIFO reserve ( ( Less: excess and obsolescence reserve ( ( Net inventories $ $ |

Leases [Abstract] | |
LEASED ASSETS | NOTE 5 — LEASED ASSETS The Company leases certain of its real estate and equipment. The Company has evaluated all its leases and determined that all are operating leases under the definitions of the guidance of ASU 2016-02. The Company’s lease agreements generally do not require material variable lease payments, residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-02 using the effective date method on January 1, 2019 and recorded right-of-use assets equal to the present value of the contractual liability for future lease payments. The table below presents the right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities recognized on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 29, 2019: Balance Sheet Line Item June 29, 2019 Right-of-use assets Other assets $2,613 Operating lease liabilities Trade accounts payable and Current portion accrued expenses $ Noncurrent portion Lease liabilities $2,028 Total operating lease liabilities $2,613 The depreciable lives of right-of-use assets are limited by the lease term and are amortized on a straight line basis over the life of the lease. The Company’s leases generally do not provide an implicit interest rate, and therefore the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate enumerated in its revolving line of credit (see Note 6) to determine the present value of its operating lease liabilities. The following table reconciles the undiscounted future minimum lease payments to the total operating lease liabilities recognized on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 29, 2019: Remainder of 2019 $ 2020 2021 2022 2023 Thereafter Total undiscounted future minimum lease payments Less: Difference between undiscounted lease payments & the present value of future lease payments Total operating lease liabilities $2,613 Index Certain of the Company’s lease agreements contain renewal options at the Company’s discretion. The Company does not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases of one year or less or for renewal periods unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the renewal option at the inception of the lease or when a triggering event occurs. The Company’s weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases as of June 29, 2019 is 11.83 years. |

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS | NOTE 7 — EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS The Company sponsors a 401(k) plan that covers substantially all employees.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE 8 — INCOME TAXES The Company's 2019 and 2018 effective tax rates differ from the statutory federal tax rate due principally to state income taxes. The Company’s effective income tax rate was 25.9% and 25.4% for the three and six months ended June 29, 2019, respectively. The Company’s effective income tax rate was 24.2% and 24.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Income tax payments for the three and six months ended June 29, 2019 totaled $7.6 million and $11.6 million, respectively. Income tax payments for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 totaled $8.0 million. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2015. The Company does not believe it has included any “uncertain tax positions” in its federal income tax return or any of the state income tax returns it is currently filing. The Company has made an evaluation of the potential impact of additional state taxes being assessed by jurisdictions in which the Company does not currently consider itself liable. The Company does not anticipate that such additional taxes, if any, would result in a material change to its financial position. |

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
COMPENSATION PLANS | NOTE 10 — COMPENSATION PLANS In May 2017, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2017 SIP”) under which employees, independent contractors, and non-employee directors may be granted stock options, restricted stock, deferred stock awards, and stock appreciation rights, any of which may or may not require the satisfaction of performance objectives. Vesting requirements are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors . Restricted Stock Units The Company grants performance-based and retention-based restricted stock units to senior employees. The vesting of the performance-based awards is dependent on the achievement of corporate objectives established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and a three-year vesting period. The retention-based awards are subject only to the three-year vesting period. There were 81,950 restricted stock units issued during the six months ended June 29, 2019. Total compensation costs related to these restricted stock units are $4.4 million. Compensation costs related to all outstanding restricted stock units recognized in the statements of income aggregated $1.6 million and $3.2 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2019, respectively, and $1.5 million and $2.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Stock Options The Company has not issued any stock options since 2010.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
CONTINGENT LIABILITIES | NOTE 13 — CONTINGENT LIABILITIES As of June 29, 2019, the Company was a defendant in five ( 5 Traditional Product Liability Litigation Three of the five lawsuits mentioned above involve claims for damages related to an allegedly defective product due to its design and/or manufacture. These lawsuits stem from specific incidents of personal injury and are based on traditional product liability theories such as strict liability, negligence and/or breach of warranty. The Company management believes that the allegations in these cases are unfounded, that the incidents are unrelated to the design or manufacture of the firearm, and that there should be no recoveries against the Company. Index Non-Product Liability David S. Palmer, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated vs. Sturm, Ruger & Co. Municipal Litigation Municipal litigation generally includes those cases brought by cities or other governmental entities against firearms manufacturers, distributors and retailers seeking to recover damages allegedly arising out of the misuse of firearms by third parties. There is only one remaining lawsuit of this type, filed by the City of Gary in Indiana State Court in 1999. The complaint in that case seeks damages, among other things, for the costs of medical care, police and emergency services, public health services, and other services as well as punitive damages. In addition, nuisance abatement and/or injunctive relief is sought to change the design, manufacture, marketing and distribution practices of the various defendants. The suit alleges, among other claims, negligence in the design of products, public nuisance, negligent distribution and marketing, negligence per se and deceptive advertising. The case does not allege a specific injury to a specific individual as a result of the misuse or use of any of the Company's products. After a long procedural history, the case was scheduled for trial on June 15, 2009. The case was not tried on that date and was largely dormant until a status conference was held on July 27, 2015. At that time, the court entered a scheduling order setting deadlines for plaintiff to file a Second Amended Complaint, for defendants to answer, and for defendants to file dispositive motions. The plaintiff did not file a Second Amended Complaint by the deadline. In 2015, Indiana passed a new law such that Indiana Code §34-12-3-1 became applicable to the City's case. The defendants filed a joint motion for judgment on the pleadings, asserting immunity under §34-12-3-1 and asking the court to revisit the Court of Appeals' decision holding the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act inapplicable to the City's claims. The motion was fully briefed by the parties. On September 29, 2016, the court entered an order staying the case pending a decision by the Indiana Supreme Court in KS&E Sports v . Runnels, KS&E Sports City of Gary City of Gary KS&E Sports A hearing on the motion for judgment on the pleadings was held on December 12, 2017. On January 2, 2018, the court issued an order granting defendants’ motion for judgment on the pleadings, but denying defendants’ request for attorney’s fees and costs. On January 8, 2018, the court entered judgment for the defendants. The City filed a Notice of Appeal on February 1, 2018. Defendants cross-appealed the order denying attorney’s fees and costs. Briefing in the Indiana Court of Appeals was completed on the City’s appeal and Defendants’ cross appeal on September 10, 2018. The Court of Appeals issued its ruling on May 23, 2019, affirming dismissal of the City’s negligent design and warnings count on the basis that the City had not alleged that manufacturer defendants’ conduct was unlawful. However, the court reversed dismissal of the City’s negligent sale and distribution and related public nuisance counts for damages and injunctive relief. The manufacturer defendants filed a Petition to Transfer the case to the Indiana Supreme Court on July 8, 2019. Summary of Claimed Damages and Explanation of Product Liability Accruals Punitive damages, as well as compensatory damages, are demanded in certain of the lawsuits and claims. In many instances, the plaintiff does not seek a specified amount of money, though aggregate amounts ultimately sought may exceed product liability accruals and applicable insurance coverage. For product liability claims made after July 10, 2000, coverage is provided on an annual basis for losses exceeding $5 million per claim, or an aggregate maximum loss of $10 million annually, except for certain new claims which might be brought by governments or municipalities after July 10, 2000, which are excluded from coverage. Index The Company management monitors the status of known claims and the product liability accrual, which includes amounts for asserted and unasserted claims. While it is not possible to forecast the outcome of litigation or the timing of costs, in the opinion of management, after consultation with special and corporate counsel, it is not probable and is unlikely that litigation, including punitive damage claims, will have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Company, but may have a material impact on the Company’s financial results for a particular period. Product liability claim payments are made when appropriate if, as, and when claimants and the Company reach agreement upon an amount to finally resolve all claims. Legal costs are paid as the lawsuits and claims develop, the timing of which may vary greatly from case to case. A time schedule cannot be determined in advance with any reliability concerning when payments will be made in any given case. Provision is made for product liability claims based upon many factors related to the severity of the alleged injury and potential liability exposure, based upon prior claim experience. Because the Company's experience in defending these lawsuits and claims is that unfavorable outcomes are typically not probable or estimable, only in rare cases is an accrual established for such costs. In most cases, an accrual is established only for estimated legal defense costs. Product liability accruals are periodically reviewed to reflect then-current estimates of possible liabilities and expenses incurred to date and reasonably anticipated in the future. Threatened product liability claims are reflected in the Company's product liability accrual on the same basis as actual claims; i.e. A range of reasonably possible losses relating to unfavorable outcomes cannot be made. However, in product liability cases in which a dollar amount of damages is claimed, the amount of damages claimed, which totaled $ 0.1 million and $0.1 million at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, are set forth as an indication of possible maximum liability the Company might be required to incur in these cases (regardless of the likelihood or reasonable probability of any or all of this amount being awarded to claimants) as a result of adverse judgments that are sustained on appeal. |
