Thanks guys this is my Ruger buddies gun --knew it was scarce but I could not find a number produced in RENE just overlooked it --and did not know the value--he found it 30 years ago or so--just use it in a display.
comparing it to the grips 'screw' it looks like it...it should be 1/4 inch in diameter I recall,once you "see" it , it stands out and is obviously smaller.
When I found it I called Munnell and he said that it was the second one that he knew of at that time. This was sometime back in the Eighty's.
I was at a gun show in North Carolina and person brought in a Red Eagle in the 13000 range and I bought it. He left the show and came back about an hour later and when he walked by my table I saw that he had another Auto. I ask him what he had and he showed me serial number 9218. And I bought it too. Don't know why he didn't bring both of them at once, or why he started to walk by me with the second gun. I ask him if he had any more and he said no! I guess I was lucky to get the second gun, or I guess you was lucky that I got it. :lol:
