Built on a carbon steel frame and receiver with a polished blued finish, this Standard Model reflects Ruger’s early production details, including Southport, Connecticut rollmarks. The tubular receiver houses a cylindrical bolt with dual rear cocking ears for positive manipulation.
The pistol uses a simple blowback, single-action system with an internal hammer. A rear mainspring-housing/takedown latch assembly supports field service, consistent with the design of early Ruger .22 autos.
Sighting is straightforward: a fixed rear notch integral to the receiver and a simple fixed front blade. Controls include a heel-type magazine catch and a thumb safety. The trigger face is serrated and grooved for a sure press.
The classic 4.75 inch tapered, round barrel defines the fixed-sight Standard configuration. Checkered black synthetic grip panels with Ruger eagle medallions complete the vintage aesthetic while providing secure purchase. Capacity is 10+1 with the included factory magazine.
