Scarce and Excellent Ruger M77 Hawkeye Bolt Action Rifle
serial #710-00142, 375 Ruger, 23'' barrel with a bright excellent bore. This Hawkeye 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''. It appears as-new-in-box, retaining virtually all of its factory matte blue with the handsome straight-grain walnut stock remaining excellent, the only apology being some mild age discoloration on the spacer for the buttpad. It retains the standard ''express'' V-notch rear and white bead front sights and integral ring mounts, and includes the factory box, correctly-end labeled and numbered to the gun, new-in-box Ruger rings, manual, paperwork, factory fired case, triggerlock, bolt-storage insert, and original hangtags. Identified as Model #7129, and introduced in 2006, this was one of 500 low-number units which were set aside for the aforementioned program and includes a factory invoice indicating that it did not leave the factory until April of 2008. Hiddleson's Reference of Ruger Firearms, 2nd Edition lists serial ''-00358'' as among the lowest known examples, making this complete big-bore rifle a lovely get for the big game hunter or Ruger collector. (26A11655-17) {MODERN} [The Stephen Sanetti Collection] (1500/2000)
