That ol' thing?  Who wants old stuff?   ;)

Looks in great shape gunman, they can be like "rabbits" sometimes....

Great find!!! How are the magazines?

Looks like a nice one.  My uncle had a nice old red Eagle he bought used in the early 50's when he got out of the service.  It was the first one i shot when i was a kid.  i wish i would have known he was going to trade it in for a snubby revolver.

Rugers are like rabbits.

Very cool.   Mine only dates back to the late '70s.

Magazines are still made for the MKI's.    MidwayUSA, among others carry them.
