It's a three-screw but without the earlier flattop. Flattops were also three-screws...the difference involves the rear sight area of the frame. Note how your frame "rises in the rear" with two "ears" protecting the rear sight.
Your gun is a GOOD gun, but unless it has a brass grip frame or factory stag/ivory stocks isn't a serious collector I don't think...although I'm not a Ruger collectables expert.
Bet it's a good shooter though .
Realize first that's it's a "load five only" proposition, and that if you ever send it to the factory for any reason it'll get the transfer bar conversion whether you want that or not.
Yeah, I know, when I called Ruger with the ser# to find out when it was made they tried to get me to send it in for the modification.
The pistol definately isn't collector grade. It has lot's of holster wear on the cylinder and muzzle. My Dad carried it when he lived in Alaska. He got it used so I imagine it's seen some stuff.
With the 7 1/2"bl it shoots great. I learned early on the always keep an empty chamber under the hammer.
The bluing is really nice, but I don't mind the worn look...that's where it gets it's character.
As a matter of fact I don't shoot it much, it's mostly just a keep sake. I used to own a GP100, so I don't mind the transfer bar, I just want to leave the old gun in original condition
