Scarce Ruger Woodside Over Under Shotgun
serial #430-00142, 12 ga., 30'' ventilated rib screw-choke barrels with bright and excellent bores showing some wad fouling. This ''Sporting Clays'' shotgun comes from the personal collection of Stephen Sanetti, former President and COO of Sturm, Ruger & Co., and includes a certificate of authenticity verifying that it was acquired by Mr. Sanetti during his tenure as a member of Ruger's now-defunct ''low serial number'' program, featuring his number ''142''. This lovely shotgun remains as-new-in-box, showing only perhaps a minute storage mark or two, with the blued surfaces toning lightly to plum. The nicely-figured checkered walnut pistolgrip buttstock with eponymous ''bar-in-wood'' siding remains excellent as does the checkered beavertail forend, with a minimum length of pull about 14'', and the factory black buttpad remains excellent with the only apology being some typical discoloration from age. The shotgun locks up tightly and on-face with the lever resting just right of center, and ejector function remains robust. Included is the original factory box, correctly end-labeled and numbered to the gun and remaining excellent, Full, Improved Cylinder, and Modified chokes, choke wrench, Rig +P lubricant, as well as the manual and paperwork. With roughly 3,000 examples having left the factory, this one in 1998, this remains a lovely and complete package for the collector. (26B11655-22) {MODERN} [The Stephen Sanetti Collection] (2500/3500)
