Ruger Wrangler .22 revolver question...with/without internal lock?

[timbo]

My wife and I each own one of these and I want to buy a set of wood grips for each of them. On Ruger's website, they show a set for the Wrangler without internal lock. What are they talking about?

some models must have a "Hillary Hole"

note the pic below, if it had a "Hillary Hole" the grips would have to be drilled for the key, I suspect that is the difference

That's a picture I wouldn't want to see...

Thanks. I may have to wait until I get to Missouri before I order them. The Rugers aren't here in NH for me to see if they have this lock.

Ah...ok. The ones I have didn't have a hole in the grips/stocks.

Maybe someone that owns one will chime in ( I am not big on Rugers ) but chances are the non hillary hole one would fit one with a hillary hole

Do the grips fit on both models? I would unlock it and cover the hole with the regular grip.

According to this picture, I'm assuming there is no lock under the grip (unless there are different versions):
