1976 Proper packaging

[ArmedinAZ]

I've got a 200th Security Six with the box and outer shipping box but no manual or whatever the pistol was wrapped in. Been watching for the correct manual but could someone tell me the correct wrapping and where I could find some?

thanks
Jeff

If I recall correctly,, in 1976,, the handguns were still being shipped in brown wax paper.
Finding some,,, good luck as most of us keep what we find!

Being a Security-Six, shouldn't that have a plastic bag with red eagles and then white tissue paper stuffed around it?
I might be wrong on this, but I don't recall any Security-Sixes being shipped in grease paper.

By gollee,, chad is most likely correct. I do believe the DA's were being shipped in clear bags with the Ruger logo at that time. My memory on those isn't as good as I wish it was.
