Need some help identifying this one

[jppasta]

I came across an old Single Six 22LR. By the serial number look up it looks like it might be from around 1972. The odd thing is it has full true Ivory grips on it with the Ruger SR emblem in it which I think is the right version for that era. I'm trying to find out more about this gun to know if it's true factory grips or not and if so if this was one of the special series ones as cant find anything out there for it.
Thanks

Welcome to the forum.

https://ruger.com/pdf/letterOfAuthenticity.pdf

Send off for the Ruger Letter of Authenticity along with a cover letter asking if they can verify the grips. Include a picture if you can.

If you use the "Search" feature ( upper right ) you can try and find other threads covering grips, Some here will ask you to take off the grips and post pics of the inside of them and maybe a close up of the "emblem", both front and back.

Factory Ivory?

Okay you collector stalwarts, here is my question. Did Ruger serial number the inside of their factory ivory grips on the old model flat tops to match the gun serial number? Please say yes and make my holiday season even beter!

Ivory Grips?

I just pickup a single six that came with Ivory Grips and the standard wood grips did Ruger offer real Ivory grips or these after market simulated? they have no marking or Ruger Eagle on them. is there way to tell if they are real Ivory? Thanks for any help. How much would they be worth?

Not shipped from the factory with those grips.

That gun was made in 1972 according to the RENE Guide.

The medallions on those grips are a later version. Raised eagle type. And I do not see anything in any book about Ruger offering real ivory since the 1950's on any production guns.

The only ivories Ruger ever offered were for XR3 frame only 1962 and earlier.
