I have been fortunate enough to have several Ruger Old Army Revolvers. I have just acquired a very low 4-digit serial number 7-1/2" first year production. I have to say, in my opinion, it is superior in almost every way in fit and finish, to my very late production 145-XXXX serial number 5-1/2". It is smoother and locks up more solidly than all my others.
This is the only 4-digit serial number ROA so it's a sample of one so it could be a fluke. Has anyone else any difference between early and late production ROA's?
