I have in my possession a Ruger Security Six (blued, 4" bbl, adj sights, .357). I am not the original owner. The original owner experienced a blown out section of the barrel extension (forcing cone). It was returned to Ruger, got a new barrel and complete going over. It is as new mechanically with a wonderful trigger.

Question is, the barrel has the familiar Ruger warning info. Would the original barrel for the Security Six have had the warning or would it have been a 'pre warning' gun? Thanks for the info.

Depends on the serial number... when it was made. But I am sure it still had a warning unless it was really old. I had one 15 years ago, and it had a warning on it.

The Ruger warning is one of the reasons I don't own any Rugers. I don't mind seeing safety messages on boxes and users' manuals, but not on any gun I own.

:confused: Are you afraid it will take all the fun out of your safe shooting if the warning is on the gun so you don't have to remember it?:scrutiny:

I wouldn’t care if my 141 had the alphabet etched into the side of the barrel I wouldn’t trade this gun for anything. I don’t really care how it looks (although I think it looks great) I only care how it shoots and holds up over time.

Mine has all the warning text, but it doesn't seem to affect the aim any...:rolleyes:

The lawyer inspired "warning" seems to have appear in 1977. I have a 1976 Old Army (Southport, CN) that doesn't have it. Everything post '76, including replacement barrels, does.

That's the way I remember it too--

The "200th year" guns came out--
Then the lawyer warning roll-mark--


(And people complain about the 1991A1 roll-mark:rolleyes: )

On the flipside, if that dumb warning keeps 'em from being sued into oblivion, maybe it's worth tolerating?
