Description: Made by Ruger right after World War II with a shape that was to become the Standard Auto pistol. Ruger's tools were of fine quality and could not compete with Stanley, Millers Falls and others in regards to pricing and promotions. Ruger went bankrupt and then with the $50,000 of start up money from Alexander Sturm, he bought the tooling needed for pistol manufacturing at the bankruptcy sale and the rest is history. Very collectable for those who are looking for extras for their Ruger collections. As with most examples, the paint on the gear is missing in many places but this can be restored with a matching spray can. The underside of the gear wheel is exceptional as is the finish on the frame. Very difficult to find an example as nice as this one; check prior sales on eBay. The cap on the butt for storage of spare drills is present and in excellent unmarred condition. The name on the barrel of the drill is very clear. The chuck is 1/4"; very few were 3/8". The last photo with the handle filpped is how it will be shipped; just undo the screw and put the handle back to normal. This one is more than most, but far superior in condition to those usually offered. Shipped FREE by Priority Mail in a flat rate box with full value of insurance to any US location served by USPS.
