Ruger Roll Mark Die 22 Cal Single Actions

Post by SteelShooter »

Several years ago, picked up a roll mark die used in single action revolvers at the Newport facility. It had to be replaced due to a small chip in the line to the right of the "READ INSTRUCTION MANUAL" text.

While it is difficult to read the roll die made the following marking:

STURM RUGER & CO. INC. (Ruger phoenix logo) ("R" in circle) .22
NEWPORT NH CAL

------------ READ INSTRUCTION MANUAL --------(chip)-------
