Smile FLAT TOP & HER STORY

GM ~ no sir, she is just a old Flat Top. The story about her is, she came by way of HAWAII. The old boy wanted to sell the Ivory. Having a 44 FT, I picked up on the Ivory. In the course of the deal, found out what they had been on. I told him, if ever he decided to sell the gun, I would have a serious interest. A couple years or so later, an e-mail comes in, and he wants to know if I am still interested?? Well, yeah ----------- so the deal went down. Got everything but the BOX seems he had had it converted and sent it to Ruger in the original box. DAMN!!! Lucky I got the factory grips. Even got the receipt from the conversion, as well as the parts. I had some other Ivory on her, but reinstalled the original Ivory and fond a nice pair for the 44 and was able to sell the ones I had put on her in the interim.
