I'm looking at an early 80's Mini 14 with a laminated stock. Were there any factory models, or is this likely a Boyds aftermarket stock? Thank you.

Well this is my newest and it was made in 1999, I'm old and prefer pre-prefix in 10/22's.

Thank you, guess I better keep the box with it. The only difference beside being walnut is the mirror polished bolt. None of mine are this age or newer, do they all have polished bolts now?

Don't buy newer Ruger products, but ran across this 1999 Deluxe Sporter. It is in a 1949-1999 50th Anniversary box with everything it should have. I'm having trouble finding production numbers and past sales info. Keep turning up 10/22 50th Anniversary posts. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a 8 3/8" 27-2 that needs those.

I will have to dig out the stuff Chet sent me, I just joined this year.

Recently picked up a Laminated Stainless International 10/22. Has the green, grey, black and brown stock, serial shows late 1994. I think 94 & 95 were the only years for these. Can someone tell me where to find production numbers? Thanks!

Appreciate the offer, kind of stuck on buying a Hot Shot.

I know they have been out of production for a few years, but just had my first Grandson. I'm in S.E.MI Thanks for any help finding one.

Thank you both, I think I can handle it from here. Pic explains it all.

Thanks....guess I can file them a little, and have more fit options.

I guess what I was trying to say is, the inside tops of the grips, are not cut to fit over the "frame gussets". They are flat up there.

Been reading all the grip frame threads and links, and I'm still not sure what XR3 Factory grips I have. Black checkered, Silver Eagle, no ramp cuts at the top. The only thing I have found that they fit would be, a 50th anniversary, New Vaquero. Do the early OM XR3 grips all have the ramp cuts...

Thanks guys, Top Rollmark is normal. Hoping to see how it groups this weekend.

My guess is there were no Bi-Centennial markings on the M-77's, as my newly acquired #71-793XX doesn't show any. Was it only 10/22's? Thanks
