Manufactured in 1957. With wide base serrated ramp front and Micro adjustable rear notch sights, flat top frame, type 2 ejector rod housing, type 2 ejector rod with round dished head, serrated blue hammer with polished sides, and aluminum alloy grip frame. The grip frame is anodized black, and the remaining components are blue with a slight plum tint on the frame and loading gate. With non-matching numbered, correct model Ruger factory box and papers.

Very good overall. 90% original blue and black finish remains with areas of light spotting and surface pitting on the barrel and cylinder, and small nicks and dings. The grips are slightly undersized with gaps around the shoulders, small dings, and absent screw escutcheon on the left panel. Mechanically excellent. Box is about good with corner and edge wear and some discoloration.
