I'd swap the conversion parts out & put that OM back to "as shipped" condition. Just remember,, after you do,,, "Load one, Skip one, Load four, full cock, then carefully lower the hammer on the empty chamber.

Howdy,

I'll get some taken & posted tomorrow.

Nice snag there.

"Merry (belated) Christmas" to my Ruger collecting family! I'll see if I can get some pictures up of my Christmas cards. And no,, I do not have any as early as the ones Don posted. Ok, here's one I already had in my files. It's of an envelope sticker used on the Christmas cards. https://i....

I THINK I recall they switched to the plastic bags when they switched to the yellow & black cardboard boxes following the red flimsey ones. And as with everything Ruger,, there are exceptions. But it'd be very early 80's or even late 1970's for sure. I think as they used up the wax paper they us...
