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

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

Great find!!! How are the magazines?
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

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.
