Item Description
Bryant Ridge Co. is pleased to present this incredible double/single-action revolver today for a penny-start auction, this is the Ruger New Model Super Blackhawk.
In 1976, to celebrate the United States Bicentennial, Ruger marked nearly all of its firearms with the roll-stamped inscription “Made in the 200th Year of American Liberty.” This special marking appeared on a wide range of models, including the Security-Six, Single-Six, Blackhawk, Mini-14, and others produced that year. While not a limited edition in the traditional sense—since Ruger applied the stamp to all guns manufactured in 1976—the marking has become a popular collector’s detail due to its patriotic significance.
