The Red Eagles is what got me interested in chasing old Rugers.....at a local show a guy had 0265. I didn't have enough cash on me so I trade him my pocket knife and belt buckle too. Walked out happy with gunew w in one hand and the other hand holding my pants up. :shock: best day ever.......I think I now own a dozen 265 guns :lol: :lol: :lol:

265 is the serial number. Each model has its own 265 serial number and the chase for matching serial numbers across models has been known to drive collectors insane, or at least into the poor house....... 8-)
