I was wondering if the owners of New Model Bearcats would send me some information. I am attempting to ascertain the starting number of when Ruger started inscribing the last three of the serial number on the cylinder face. If you have a New Model I would like you to check it and if it HAS the last three inscribed on the cylinder let me know that serial number. If you don't want it 'published' on the forum please send me the info via a PM. I will NOT let anyone else know about it except at some point perhaps list the earliest number I can come up with.
