• Description:

  SN 4642 is a very early gun built in 1954, the first year of commercial production. Introduced in 1953 but only 50 units were built that year. This revolver shows the 5 1/2" barrel, round front site, the square rod thumbpiece, steel ejector housing, thin trigger, flat loading gate and the correct blue and odized finish. This correct first variation shows a bright excellent bore and 97% original finish. Mounted with the correct hard rubber original grips and all the correct markings. This Ruger  is a tough example for the Ruger collector to find. Sources indicate that there were approx 10,000 revolvers built in 1954. A scarce collector grade Ruger.
