The guns in our display were the catalog options from 1949 to 1963. If you picked up a Ruger catalog between those years these were your options to order. We started out with the 1949 Red Eagle on the back board and ended with the Hawkeye that was produced in 1963. We did take a little liberty and included a light weight "S" gun, a real one and not a counterfeit, even though they were not shipped until 1964.
As you look at the pictures you will see an assortment of other items on the display table and back board for items of the time period. This display is about 2/3rds of the full display that will be on display at the 2026 NRA convention in Houston representing the RCA.
