1952 and 1956 (catalog I think)

[twriggen]

I was going through my catalogs in preparation of an upcoming Display show and realized I am still missing the catalog that introduced the Mark I 5 1/4" and the Lightweights. Anyone out there sitting on one they would let go of?

Thanks,

Troy, I have them and will loan to you. I think the Lightweights were first introduced in 1956, the same year as the .44 Flat Tops?
There are two versions of the 1956 catalogs, one for each of these two "new" revolvers. Brass Frame/Lee
All my Ruger catalogs are currently packed up, ready for the move to a new house in late July!

Thanks Lee. I have located the late '56 which is the one with the addition of the 44 mag, so still missing the first addition that introduced the light weights. I might have located copies of the other two and will keep you posted if I need to get a copy to scan or not.
