$1100 shipped without PCS.

Great rifle, and thank you for calling me to discuss; it was a pleasure speaking with you. While this one wasn't quite the fit for my particular search, this one sounds like a really solid deal. A couple of additional details that a prospective buyer might want to know:

1. We measured and compared the Length-of-pull for the original stock, and it is the same length as my current No. 1B (so it has not been cut down).
2. The original gloss blue finish looks to have been covered with a type of matte or parkerized finish; I assume for durability (in keeping with the PCS stock). and
3. We tried to look up the serial number on Ruger's website, and this appears to be an early 130-xxxxx model. Although the website could not pull up the exact date, the serial number is about 9,000 lower than the serial number of my 1976 No. 1A. I would guesstimate that to be about a 1974 or 75(?). A more experience No. 1 collector could probably chime in with more info.

In the meantime, I think this is a solid deal and good luck with the sale!

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
