I'm not a revolver expert, but they sell less than Smiths, have less aftermarket support, are used less in competition etc. etc. Subjectively, they're not as nice to shoot unless heavily modified, and it's harder to find a gunsmith to time or trigger job a Ruger. I've seen more Chiappa Rhinos in competition than Rugers.
In terms of quality, the centerfire revolvers are solid guns and the old Single Sixes are great. The new Wranglers are a bit crap, but cheap enough that most people won't mind.
All legit, but that sort of thing isn't nearly as big a part of the gun community as it was forty years back. Back then it was all handloading varmint rounds, fire lapping barrels and big bore six guns. Nobody had ARs!
