The included factory letter states the revolver was shipped in December of 1962 as a model BKH34. With wide base serrated ramp front and Micro adjustable rear notch sights, second style frame with integral frame ribs, type 3 straight cut ejector rod housing, type 3 ejector rod with flat round head, blue serrated hammer with polished sides, and second style aluminum alloy grip frame. The grip frame is anodized black, and the balance is blue. With smooth grips with nickel and black Ruger medallions. With non-matching numbered correct model factory box and papers.

Excellent overall. 98% plus original blue and black finish remains with some light edge wear and small surface scratches. The grips show some small dings. Mechanically excellent. Box is good with corner and edge wear and some mild peeling.
