Ruger Posters

Post by 67stingray »

I just aquired a couple of dealers posters from 1979, one is for the M77 with a yellow background and the other the Red Label with a white background. They are in excellent condition with just the folds from the way they were delivered to the dealer. They are 11" × 38", I plan on getting them framed to preserve them. How often have anyone seen these?

They're around and I see them on eBay from time to time. In fact, I think I saw those two on there recently. I believe that there are two different versions of the M-77 one. EIther that or my mind is slipping. The OU poster I don't think is in my paperwork yet. It's possible but I don't recall seeing it. Those being so oddly sized would be hard to find a flea market frame for but I agree that it needs one and like your style. Great finds!

I know that I've never seen one, but that would be sweet to have.

Several of the posters also have different printing code dates on them.
There are quite a few different M77 posters, with different lineups for cartridge's pictured....kind of like the old bullet boards.
Super Rare posters include the Number 1 Antelope poster and there are at least two different .44 Carbine posters and 2 different 10/22 posters from when those two models came out originally.

Great info Chet!

Here are a few more posters that I photographed tonight. I didn't measure them but can if anyone wants to know as I believe there are other versions of some of these. There are some other posters around here and I'll update as I come across them. Apologies for some being crooked.

1. Blackhawk Conversion
2. 1989 P85
3. 1986 GP-100
4. 1987 GP-100 - These were sent out factory folded two different ways.
5. 1980 Security Six

Chet, here are two more of the M77 poster series that you mentioned. These are the 11 and 16 cartridge versions. The 16 is dated 10/81.

Jay, I do have duplicates of many of these. Exceptions without duplicates are the M77 ones and the SR-556. You know I love the barter system and was hoping to trade for versions that I don't have. Talk to me!
