One of only 75 produced, this Model #46975 rifle comes from the personal collection of Stephen Sanetti, former President and COO of Sturm, Ruger & Co., and includes a certificate of authenticity verifying that it was acquired by Mr. Sanetti due to his tenure with Ruger and membership in their now-defunct “low serial number” program, featuring his number “142”; this run of 75 rifles were gifted to friends and benefactors of Sturm, Ruger & Co. at a SHOT Show 2024 company event commemorating Ruger’s 75th anniversary, and were never available for sale on the commercial market – even product information was not available on the Ruger website until all units had been distributed. The included factory invoices indicate that this example left the factory in May of 2024 – as only 75 units were produced, an exclusive serial prefix was created and Mr. Sanetti’s usual “142” designation was changed to “42” to fit into this limited run. As of writing, no known example has changed hands on the open market, representing an exciting opportunity for the advanced Ruger collector to secure an interesting, exclusive, and capable rifle which is sure to enjoy continued appreciation.
