50 years ago this month.

Post by ruger66 »

Serial number 64. Nice number since the 10/22 came out in 64 fifty years ago. This one was owned by Charles Rogler. He met Bill Ruger through different shooting event. He was a champion shooter and run a successful export business. He traveled the world and was a freelance exporter for Ruger until the Ruger export division was formed and headed by Steve Vogel and the worked for Ruger full time until his retirement.

To know that the 10/22 has been around for 50 years sure makes me feel old! That #64 is nice! Have reason to believe the No.1 #64 also went to Rogler; I have no knowledge of its wherabouts? anyone?
