Engraved Super BC

Post by d findley »

Miss Nancy Padua was employed by the Ruger Collectors Assn. in 1978. She researched our Rugers and issued letters. You might say she ran the RCA. Those were the "good old days". A group within the Association decided to show our application. Nancy was partial to Bearcats. We commissioned master engraver Bob Evens to engrave with gold bands a Super Bearcat which we presented to her at the May 1982 RCA annual dinner (NRA Meetings) for all she did.

Oh man, that is a outstanding Super Bearcat. It was a very fitting gift. Nancy is a great lady, she visited with us at the OGCA Display show a couple of years ago, it was great to see her.
