    Does it come with a "shoot me first" jacket?
    bud

    If it weren't for lawyers, I wouldn't need a lawyer.

    More on FBI anniversary model. It has a Bob Allen tan case, on the left side, the years 1935-1985 in blue on barrel end. On the stock end, it has the FBI National Academy, with eagle & shield, with knowledge, courage, & integrity written below the eagle. Blue & gold outter rind of seal. On the right side of case the Ruger logo, name plate, & extra mag pouch. On the right side of stock of the gun there is an inlaid pewter medalion, written Golden Anniversary National Academy Associates, right side of reciever, on bolt handle the same seal as on case. On left side forward reciever, looks to be stamped, FBI National Academy, 50th Anniversary, 1935-1985. It is the GB model with flash supressor & bayo lug. It is new unfired. I have extra Ruger 30 rd. mags. Some in Ruger boxes. In I believe 1986, 1 was made for each agent & any FFL that agreed to do the transfer for agents in his area. There was also a Ruger Security Six issued as a set with the rifle. I choose not to buy the revolver. Can anyone else add anything ?
    Thanks

    If the pistol came with the Mini as part of a set, you'll hurt the value if you don't get both.

    Are they going to have a Waco / Ruby Ridge commemorative as well? Sorry; my perspective on the feebs changed 180 degrees after those events. As far as I'm concerned, I'd pee on them if they were drowning.

    It was a serious question, and I think Sig357 deserves a serious answer.

    This is a "special edition". That is, the entire run was ordered from Ruger by an organization or distributor. Information on special editions is usually difficult to find; value is difficult to determine, since there are few resales. Generally, special editions sell for a small premium over the "plain" version of a gun. Since most GB's sold are used police rifles, my wild guess is that a mint GB would sell for $500-600, substantially more if with a folding stock. So, again wild guessing, an FBI version might sell for $100-200 more than that, unless you can find an agent who is looking for one.

    The only sure way to find out is to offer it for sale at auction, and even that price might not be repeated.

    Ok i know for a fact that if u have ruger 30 round magazines you can reach up to hundread to one hundrread and twenty dollars for the clips alone depending on conditon. but if they are new and factory made by ruger then those right there are the real treasure. in regards to the rifel itself i have no input on that besides that it sounds like a nice lilttle rifle.
