1961 Ruger Bearcat with Box & Holster
Description: The Ruger Bearcat has gone thru quite a few variations over the production run of this model, and we are pleased to offer one of the earliest we have encountered in great condition. Ruger started production of the Bearcat model in 1958 and continued to produce this model until 1970, for a 1st production run of 12 years. This is example is serial number 15104, making it's date of production 1961. It has the earliest grip type, a variation that was a composite of plastic and wood chips used for only a few years. The original Ruger factory blue finish rates about 93-94% with some light holster wear at the muzzle and on the ejector rod tab, a slight bit of high edge wear on the front of the cylinder, and some marring on the head of the cylinder pin. The bore is perfect, bright with strong rifling. The original grips are also near perfect, free from cracks, wear, or any repairs. This Bearcat has obviously spent most of it's life in storage and has been shot or carried VERY little which is uncommon for this model. Most of the Bearcats we encounter have been used quite a bit. Everything works 100% on this Bearcat like the day it left the factory. This little Ruger comes with an original box which is missing the label, and a vintage Bucheimer leather holster. If you have been looking for a Bearcat for your collection, this early example would be a perfect choice. It is nice enough to be considered an investment, but has just enough wear that with proper care you could shoot it without hurting it's value. REDUCED to $595!
