I acquired a 1951 Standard with the red eagle grips last night. For those that aren't as familiar with Ruger, they were founded in 1949 by Alexander Strum and William Ruger. The standard was their first product. The eagle logo was designed by Strom. After Alexander Strum died in 1951 they changed the logo from red to black making the early guns a little more desirable now.
It's my first old firearm. I'm unsure where to look for an extra magazine.
