Thanks. Mite get to try it out this morning if the Rain holds off for awhile. It has Rubber Finger-Groove Grips with the Ruger Logo on them. Was that a Factory Option or Aftermarket?

Chief has it right , last year the Mark I was made, as for the grips probably from a newer model,

here is a link to Ruger's Customer Service Department, just click on the Serial number history

If your Ruger does have a 6 inch barrel and fixed sights , it would be a Standard model, not a MK1. If it has a 5-1/2 or 6-7/8 inch barrel with adjustable sights it is a MK1.
