RugerShop's "attic treasures"

Noticed this morning that a section of "attic treasures" has been added to the RugerShop. It's stuff "found in the attic at Newport. (I'd LOVE to rummage around there) Just grips for Security Sixes and Speed Sx but neat to see them available brand new in the original packages.
Just for fun and I'd never seen them packaged as such before, but mostly just for fun :lol: I ordered the 6 pack.

Hmmm...a six-pack of grips would be a pretty rare find for box collectors!

I'd never heard of such a package and had never seen such grip boxes even singularly. Debated on getting another 6-pack but didn't want to be greedy. Just thought it interesting from a collectable standpoint so why not. :lol:

Hmmm...223 views and no comments. I guess chet15 and I are the only two that think this is pretty neat.

There are a few more of us! lol. ps

Yes, they are a neat package. If it were the set of six 10/22 magazines in its own larger box, there'd probably be a lot more people after them.

Looks like the only thing they had in their attic were revolver grips. They must have sold everything else.

I seriously doubt that they really know what is "in the attic".............. :roll:

they had so MANY of those grips ( as I recall Sile made them for Ruger),
and recently CDNN closed out a huge amount of the RST/Mk I wood grips, they went for as low as $6.99 a pair...we had LOTS of the oversized targ grips for the secutiry Sixes,and they never were a GOOD seller, sold 'em cheap, I think Ruger got them in about the time they discontinued making the Security Six line, Sooooo, basically were "stuck" with them...some vendors were NOT the quickest in delivery,drove the old man "nuts".....
10/22 'stuff' would have went out the door fast as they got it........
with so many plants ( properties) and buildings, never know what coild be tucked away in a corner, on a shelf or n a cabinet, let alone an "attic"??? sound s more of a "marketing" gimmick to us.........found in the "atttic" ???who ever put them there should have been fired........ 8)
But then again, with LOTS of "old folks" on the payroll, they probably "forgot" :roll: ( hey I resemble that remark....) :shock:

I can see the RST grips selling cheap. I bought a set for my RST-4 back in the day and the wood was so soft you parctically had to wear gloves when you handled it to keep from knocking the diamonds off the checkering.

Hey they "CLEANED OUT" the 6 packs of 10/22 magazines several years ago........I bought 3 of them from a guy at the LGS....said he gottem from RUGER in a closeout sale.....I believe I paid 50 a box.....RR

Sorry... I think they're pretty neat too... I just saw the post and went off and placed my order and didn't come back to chat.

Phew, at least I know I'm not crazy alone. :lol:

WMG: Thanks!

Ordered a box also. Have to try out a pair. I seen them in Mini 14 mags in the white box and I bought 4 Ruger 40 S&W mags in plain white boxes a few years ago.

Mine was on permanent hold because, when offered the choice, I chose USPS shipping to my PO box. Turns out, they only send orders under $100 through the mail. So instead of asking me for my street address, they put the order in limbo. I think it is all worked out now. The girl I talked to said the problem might be that the person who takes care of such stuff (The Unholder?) has been out sick this week.
