Re: 44 F.T. 7.5"

There are members with more expertise, but over the years I have seen a few original aluminum grip frames that have a duller or gray appearance. One of my FTs with a 10-inch barrel, shipped in August 1959, is one of them. The grip frames are polished and then blackened using perhaps an anodizing pro...

Re: Ruger sight screwdrivers
