Extremely rare 10/22, original walnut finger groove stock with factory sling stud hardware that is usually missing. Stock is in ok shape but has a couple spots of pretty good rash from honest use at some point in its life. What makes this rare besides the factory finger groove stock configuration is the duplicate serial#. Ruger had problems in its past with overlapping serial#'s and instead of destroying the duplicates would indicate as a duplicate/different serial# with a "D" stamp which this gun carries. The Serial# falls in the correct range for a factory duplicate serial# and finger groove walnut stock. Gun comes as pictured.

Price $650.00

I did not know that, thanks for the interesting tidbit of information.

@titsonritz there are also single sixes, black hawks and some other models out there with these duplicate serial#'s.
