This Ruger Standard is 1 of 5000 made for the Bill Ruger Signature Series!
According to the consignor, this example is in new old stock condition!
SPECIFICATIONS:
Manufacturer: Ruger
Model: Standard Bill Ruger Signature Series
Serial: 17-03030
Date of Manufacture: 1981
Caliber: .22 Long Rifle
Finish: Stainless
Barrel Length: 4.75"
Optics/Sights: Fixed
Stock/Grips: Black Checkered with Ruger Medallion on Right Grip
Action: Semi-Automatic
Markings: "1 of 5000" marked on the right side of the barrel, "Bill Ruger's Signature" is marked on top of the receiver.
Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Standard model is an atypical design, lacking the slide found on conventional pistols, instead sporting a cylindrical bolt which cycles inside a tubular receiver in a manner more characteristic of a rimfire rifle. The bolt of the pistol features protruding "ears" at its rear which are grasped and pulled rearward to feed the initial round and cock the action. Using the basic blowback form of operation, the Standard model originally came with a blued carbon steel finish and was equipped with a 4.75-inch (12.1 cm) tapered barrel
The bolt was left "in the white" with the unfinished steel providing a visual contrast with the blued receiver. In 1954 a new model with a barrel length of 6 inches was added to the Standard lineup. In 1971, one of the few engineering changes ever made to the Standard model took place when the original 22-year-old receiver forming dies wore out. As a precursor to changes to come with the 1982 introduction of the MK II series, the slot for the magazine follower extension on the grip frame was moved from the right to the left side.
Designated the "A 100" frame modification, this alteration facilitated the eventual improvement of the Standard pistol by the addition of a bolt hold open device as part of the eventual MK II upgrade. The pistol grip panels and magazines from older Standard models can not be used on post-1971 pistols due to this change, but the later magazines can still be used on pre-1971 guns by moving the magazine follower button to the opposite side. As the Standard model reached the end of its product lifecycle in 1981, a special edition run of 5000 4.75-inch pistols built of stainless steel were manufactured. These pistols were shipped in special wooden cases and featured an engraving of Bill Ruger's signature
