Post by d findley »

Original owner Tom Ruger. The gun was either picked up without the magnum cylinder or it was lost???

Excellent example of an early single digit NM Single-Six.
Provenance of Tom Ruger ownership about says it all.

After Tom passed I believe His #5 went to Bill Jr. and then to Hank Jr. Did this one never leave Tom? Just curious.....
