Now that is a great haul. The highlight for me is the Ruger Old Army (the ammo as well since I use all those calibers). If you are new to the ROA you're in for a treat. They are the best cap and ball revolvers ever made. And the fixed sight versions are in huge demand for cowboy action shooting. If I didn't already have several, I would be completely jealous. Congratulations.

Nice! Did the older model PC Carbine come with some mags? It used Ruger P-Series handgun mags, which are probably still plentiful. There's some good info on this model here: https://rdougwicker.com/2019/02/06/ruger-original-police-carbine-pc9-a-first-look/

The OId Army is a very strong design -- if you want to shoot it occasionally with metallic cartridge smokeless ammo, check out the conversion cylinders available from these guys: https://www.howellarms.com/ruger-old-army

I have a Pietta Remington with one of these cylinders in .45 ACP (counterbored to take .45 Auto Rim) that, rather to my surprise, shoots accurately and to the fixed sights. I liked it so much that I did a similar rig for a pocket model in .32 S&W.
