Greetings from the Best Carolina.

 

Greetings. Can you answer my query?

 

Go check the Ruger website.

Welcome from south Arkansas.

 

Looks like it is 1962, one year older than mine. Great little gun!

 

I am trying to get the same info on one as well. the serial number on this one is 10-17614

 

I am trying to get a year model or some kind of info such as value to a "Ruger 22 cal. long rifle automatic pistol". On the opposite side of it is stated " STURM, RUGER & CO., INC. SOUTHPORT, CONN. U.S.A. 10-17614

 

Looks like yours was made in 69.

 

Sounds like a beauty!

 

It sounds like you have a Standard. If it has a 4.5" barrel it's an RST4, if it has a 6" barrel it's an RST6. Value very much depends on condition which is impossible to assess without detailed pictures.

 

Attempting to get the approximate value of a Strum, Ruger & Co, 22 cal LR, automatic with approx 4.5" barrel. Serial #: 260866. Apparently manufactured 1964.

This request is for a military widow neighbor who found this weapon in her attic. The weapons is very clean with chrome trigger, and chrome bottom on magazine.

 

To all interested,

For mnf dates, see THIS page from the Ruger website! There you can identify any early Standard or Mk1 Ruger manufacture date.

FWIW: If the pistol is Not rolled stamped "Mark I" on the receiver, then it would be either a RST4 tapered 4 3/4" barrel, or a RST6 tapered 6" barrel STANDARD, with fixed sights (1949-1982)!

If it is rolled stamped "Mark I", then it could either be a 6 7/8" heavy taper barrel, a rare 5 1/4" heavy taper barrel, or a 5 1/2" bull barrel Target MkI, with adjustable sights (1951-1982)!

For new Ruger Mk pistol owners, HERE is a nicely condensed reference history on the Ruger .22 Rimfire story!
