That one was called the RCA Red Barn. Here's what I have on it from the reference:
KMK512 R.C.A. RED BARN. Known s/n range 211-01400 to 211-01600. The pistol features a circled elk rack that is rollmarked on the receiver above the serial number. Not more than 200 produced. They were packaged in a hinged inner box that is reminiscent of the boxes used circa 1951 to 1954 and "Salt Cod" style outer box. This model was offered to Ruger Collectors' Association members for $370 each or $740 for a consecutively serial numbered pair.
Apparently, some of the guns within the serial number range listed above were sent through normal distribution (without the elk rack stamp) and 7 D211- prefix guns were made for the RCA to make up for the missing guns.
The non-"D" gun came out at $450 NIB in the latest RENE price guide.
