Napa NS47 RHFT

[Draftpick1]

New addition to my RHFT ratchet collection Napa NS47 smooth handle USA made. Have only seen a couple of these. Anyone have any ideas on a date range

I know a lot about the Craftsman RHFT, but not much about the others. I can only say that the "blind" stud indicates it was made no earlier than 1981.

True, and Danaher/Apex group bought Easco in 1990 so it was after that as well when all these companies started having connections(Allen,KD,Napa, Armstrong). The end was 2009 for all of these. I might try and see of I can find some old catalogs to look through. I took it apart and a capital "M" stamped on it. Any ideas? will post a pic added pic to OP post

Sounds like you already have a good handle on the date range.
