Still available. Buyer backed out because I listed my email. I did not realize that was a problem. Try a PM, but they do not always get to me.

Q: I am asking just to learn … Why is year of production important with this gun?

I have one and I had no idea that was a thing.

Thanks - and I understand if you choose to not respond.

People usually ask, at least I do and assume others as well, to see if it is a pre or post warning model. The newer ones have a "BLACK POWDER ONLY" type stamp ontop of the barrel while the pre warning models only say "Ruger Southport, CT" for example.

And, like mentioned above, if it is a 1976 model it is an even more rare edition with the 200th anniversary of 1776, that will be stamped on it.
