My Inexpensive SBH

[Swampman]

I fitted a used New Model grip to the left side after installing the correct blackened hardware and medallion in it. I gave the grips a couple of coats of Min-Wax Satin Tung Oil Finish to make them match better. Just a cheap shooter and woodsbum pistol.

I really like the plum color of the frame. Very nice.

Now that is a great woods gun. Can't go wrong with it.

Nice job and nice plum color. All my guns are "woods" guns. There's not a gun I own, I wouln't take to the woods, but then that's just me!.......................Dick :wink:

The plum makes that gun 8) 8)

Dan you could do a little cosmetic work on that gun and it would be a even better looking gun --perfect shooter SBH to mess with

Inexpensive maybe, cheap never.

It came with a Hogue Monogrip on it and the original grips. Bubba had filed some finger grooves in the left pannel.

I had one like that. After a quick trip to Newport it looks like this....

I sure hate to let them take it apart and put the new parts in it.

Nice Old Ruger! Thanks for sharing!

I sure hate to let them take it apart and put the new parts in it.

Why not take out the old parts before you ship it to Ruger? That's what I do.
I have several OM Rugers that have been refinished and/or rebuilt by the Factory. They look GREAT! They are not "Safe Queens", they are Shooters!

PS Here's one of them......and I fitted the brass grip frame after Ruger did the refinish work.

Well it shoots very good.
