That is a truly outstanding package! Beautiful condition, 1949-shipped, and with the box/instruction sheet - doesn't get much better than that for a Red Eagle.
yes. nice indeed..lucky dog
Thanks!
Have never understood why these early Ruger 22 autos seem to have such a smaller following and lesser values(part fact and part opinion....) SN 480 lives here and I treasure it! Also like the early T514 and the Red Eagle T678!

I too have often wondered why the early Red Eagles had a smaller following & lesser values myself. To me,, it's THE beginning of a great company that gave us so much!

I love them too. I am the current caretaker of Red Eagle Mark I SN 16975 and Standard SN 10866. Always on the lookout for another. Beautiful pistol.
Great looking old, but new to you, find!

I can't tell for sure but if the serial number is 0600. I used to own that gun. I let it go to the Potato Farmer when I sold my collection of Rugers. If it is serial number 0600 then it is one fine Red Eagle. I'm sure that you enjoy owning it.

Wow, what a classic find! I keep looking for one myself, but nothing yet. If someone has one to part with, please let me know. Much appreciated.
Great looking pistol.
