Still Out There
They are still out there. I just picked this up from an ole time collector from Arizona. Original owner was Edwards "Pete" Brown. Brown was a gun writer and friend of Mr. Ruger.

Re: Still Out There
Where in Arizona does this collector hide out? Maybe he has some old Blackhawks he would like to part with.

This guy is in Phoenix. I already interrogated him about other Rugers. Too late, they are long gone.
Re: Still Out There
Oh my, X6, that was Pete Brown's, what a great score. Happy for you Don.

Re: Still Out There
Don you come up with the greatest stuff. I am amazed at some of the things Ruger people have. That is the proverbial hens tooth!
Some people sit on $.05 of knowledge like it is the treasure of Egypt. I will teach anyone $.10 worth just to prove a point...

Re: Still Out There
Don, can you explain about the X6 SN?
Re: Still Out There
In 1950 Ruger decided to make a target model of his very successful Standard pistol. They were numbered (hand stamped) X3, X4, X5, X6, X13, & X32. These target pistols were given to Friends for testing. X32 was saved for a future museum. Not all the numbers between 6 & 32 were used. These are the ones I can confirm.
