No doubt it will be retold in some pawn shop tomorrow, somewhere. Just heard it today. A Ruger marked “made in the 200th year” which was translated as 1976, is a collectors item. As far as I know every Ruger built in ‘76 was so marked. Some folks like them, no doubt, but unless it’s unified in the box, I don’t think they are particularly “collectible” as to a premium value.
