Ruger® No 1 Models

[dawei]

How many models (not chamberings) of Ruger® No 1 rifles are there? For example 1A, 1B, 1S, 1V, etc. What are the differences? Any help is most appreciated.

Regards...

for prefix models the production designations are A, B, S, V, H, AB, AH, RSI, many have various barrel lengths and a couple of 1 offs like D (Lyman), SC (Lipsey's 26" barrel)
for non prefix, which were all special order, there are many more possibilities. Using the more common designations are AB, ABS, AHS, AH, BB, BBS, BH, BBB, BHB, S, V, H
hopefully didn't miss any.....
