picked up a ruby today at a gunshow, and couldn't find a reference to the maker on the search function here. it's in great shape, frame and slide match s/n's. at some point, it was re-blued and the frame and slide were restamped with the number 135, both were placed directly below the original s/n's.
the maker's logo on the slide is "VESTA CAL 7.65 HIJOS DE A ECHEVERRIA EIBAR". the original s/n is 108,5xx. can y'all tell me who echeverria was, and about when this pistol might have been made, or even when refurbed? below is a pic of the pistol, couldn't get a clear pic of the slide logo.
