Custom Flatgate - RSS4 w/Stags

[jussbad]

This is a re-blued Flatgate that now sports a Premiere Loading Gate and an original Ruger 4 5/8" barrel. Nice plum frame and I'm sure would make a fine shooter. This is L/R only. Has a very nice pair of what appear to be Factory Stag Grips. Grip frame has also been re-finished probably the same time the gun was. $900 + shipping FFL to FFL.

I do not get it! Why is he calling that a Flatgate?

Well, because it was originally a Flatgate gun. It has been customized with a different length barrel that the steel Flatgate guns did not come with and the loading gate has the aftermarket Premiere gate in it. The serial number is the key to what this gun was originally. Not trying to mislead anyone here just stating what is for sale.
If someone wants to put this gun back to original they would simply change the barrel to a 5 1/2" and install a Flatgate loading gate. It would still be a re-blued gun and hence the value would drop for a collector.
