- Joined Sep 17, 2017. Discussion Starter. #1. Sep 17, 2017. I just received a Mark I from my Uncles estate. It is a 4 digit serial number 3XXX. Barrel to the frame is almost 3.5 inches. I believe the gun was manufactured in 1951.
- They appear around 220-59xxx serial number range. In 1997, another Ruger distributor succeeded in contracting Ruger to make a similar 22/45 only in blue, with 6.875' slab side bull barrels. Approximately 1,000 were produced, with serial numbers extending to 220-87xxx serial number range.

The above chart shows the approximate first serial number shipped for the indicated year. This number should be used as a point of reference only. It is not necessarily the very first serial number shipped, but it can be used to determine the approximate year your Ruger firearm was shipped.
Ruger does not produce firearms in serial number order. There are occasions when blocks of serial numbers have been manufactured out of sequence, sometimes years later. Also, within a model family the same serial number prefix may be used to produce a variety of different models, all in the same block of serial numbers. And in some cases, models may be stored for a length of time before they are shipped.
