Letters on a pair of consecutive BKH3's

[radicalrod]

15483 is the last shipped ROSS variation 6/29/56 and 15484 the next consecutive number shipped 5/7/58 what's up with that.....just thought I would post the letters I received....RR

That's neat Rod. I also noticed Ruger including a specific day and not just month and year on the ship date. They also named the Southport factory, I guess since there are more than one now.
Congrats on putting those 2 together.

Rod, it makes sense to me. The ROSS guns were shipped when they were made, in 1956. In 1958, the numbering series continued from 15483 to the then-current 15484. That's exactly how they show up in Bob's List. Easy peasy?

Nice letters, complete with full ship dates including exact day, not too usual these days. I have updated The List to include the days. Thanks.

Fantastic pair, those.

:mrgreen:

Will work for Conc OM Rugers.
Back, shoulders and knees can't do carpet.
I can take a motorcycle apart, but someone else gotta put it back together.
I can clean and polish guns, though.
When do I start?
Send the limo to Illinois.

Really Jim...collectors are more than willing to have show and tell. Those that do this kind of thing see no problem with it whatsoever, and really its good advertising....Radical Rod may be able to purchase more rare guns because of it!
If there was fear mongering for all owners of property, including rare Rugers, Ruger's wouldn't be rare they would be pieces of iron, because nobody would ever see them...and there would be no demand...and "zero" profitability.
We need to share this information, including serial numbers, because without it, knowledge or the hobby does not grow.

Yeah, but I kinda think revealing street addys is less than prudent.

I do note that most posted letters have the addy hidden in some manner: wise, IMHO.

 

[radicalrod]

Well how hard is it to find someones address with the internet and google....

Or even the tax roles list at the states web sites....

Paranoia will destroy ya :lol: :lol: :lol: RR

 

[Ale-8(1)]

Not hard at all when you intentionally post your addy online.

:wink:

I had no intention of blowing up your post and I thought I was PMing you with my message, but it didn't turn out that way. I have really enjoyed hearing about and seeing some of your collection of Rugers sense I have been a member here. Would you mind sharing a photo of those two guns.

I'm not really suffering form Paranoia. However my name and old address got out on the dark web and all kinds of stuff started showing up in my mail box along with a house call from the GBI/FBI, just full of questions they wanted answers to.

Regards

No problem here I have spent a lot of money over the years advertising that address....

I would love to post pics of these two but they are on PHOTOSHITHOLEBUCKET......as are about 1000 other pics I had.....I won't even try and go there again.....they make me very sad....I would have gladly paid them a fair price but $300 a year is INSANE....so until I get energized and take a few hundred more pics......well your in luck found a picture on my phone....here ya go.....RR

Nice looking oldies and goodies you have there.

Is this PHOTOSHITHOLEBUCKET you speak of a disease and something that should be avoided at all cost ??
