My 90 year old dad had to give up his guns due to being moved into a nursing home. I've taken protective custody and am inventorying all of them. One that he has is a 6" barrel Standard which the serial number preface indicates was made in 1982 which was apparently the last year for the Standard.
It does have the safety warning roll marked on the left side. It also has a Micro rear adjustable sight and a tall square flat blade front sight. It is not marked Mark 1 and I think the Mk1 (Target model) came with undercut front sight. I am assuming they are aftermarket sights. Dad says he bought it used from a neighbor that way.
He has two mags with it, neither are marked Ruger on them. One is broken they both other seem rather flimsy compared to Ruger mags I've seen and it hangs up on the mag release. I'm guessing these are aftermarket ones from the 1980s. I am assuming that since this pistol has the A100 frame (made after 1973) it will use the later MkII mags.
Overall the gun is in Very Good condition. Bluing about 90%.
Based on the above I am assuming this is simply a RST6 with target sights added. I just need to confirm this.
