Vintage Bearcat

Hello, just found a Bearcat #155xx in with in some of my deceased fathers stuff. Is this made in 58 model? it looks to be in decent shape for its age,is it worth anything?

Looks to me to be a 1961 model. That year was 5600 to 17467. Yours fall into that range.

welcome to the Forum, good info above as to that number being 1961...they did come out in 1958.
as for value, those OM Bearcats run in the $400 range around here,,,if you have the box,add a bit more.

Thanks guys, I found info in Ruger's site but did not understand. No box, in a holster in fair to good condition
