Ruger Family Portrait

I was fooling around this weekend and took a couple "Family Portraits" of all my Rugers and my centerfire Single Action Rugers.

Two nice collages of your hand guns..

Very nice collection and family portrait!

Noticed you reversed the front sight blade on the adjustable sight single actions. Any reason in particular you do this?

I find it gives me a better site picture and the "ramp forward" seems to reholster better.

Nice family!

There is a "Buck Rogers" looking pistol directly above the cheekpiece on the rifle with sort of a bronze colored barrel jacket. Is that a pellet pistol? A single shot?

It's a Ruger Mark IV 22/45 Lightweight.

Thank you. I believe that is about the strangest pistol I've ever seen!

I've had Ruger .22 pistols before, but none that funny looking. I'd like to see it broken down?

In the second picture, what are the grips on the two revolvers at 12 0'clock and 6 0'clock? Do you have any more pictures of them? I see a jeweled trigger on one....

Kevin,
You have a good eye for detail.
I'm into Steampunk. I even created a "unofficial" Steampunk category for Cowboy Action Shooting.
Those grips are Checkered black Plastic Ruger grips that have been Hydro dipped in a Steampunk pattern.

With my IAC 1887 Steampunked. This features Cerekoting and hydro dipping of the handguards, along with a custom butt cover.

Rolan,
You have an interesting aesthetic... I like it!
Nice collection and thanks for posting pics.
