Ruger Original Ivory Grips – OM Single Six

Digging thru Ruger Collectible’s bins and ran across these…

From an OM Single Six, from my limited knowledge a XR3 grip frame.

Grips are marked on the back side with a #6 and a #4 and a faint #6, which appear to be pencil marks.

Based on what I’ve looked at on the forums they appear to be ivory and original Ruger production.

Show them placed together (banded) to show how well the pair matches, so believe the faint #6 on the second grip is indicative of them being a pair.

Thought you’d enjoy seeing these and knowing there are more of these out there!

Enjoy!

They have moved onto their next caretaker, who had a better home for them on a revolver that deserved grips like these. I only have working flat gate OM single sixes, that were not deserving and thus the grips have been in storage for over 16 years, but now they have a better home and will be displayed in a fitting manner.

Looks similar to these.
Not sure who made them, but old guard here prolly has an idea.
