Picked one up. Like I said, its a .22 new model single six, blue, with simulated ivory grips, 5.5" barrel. 200$ new. How'd I do?

You did pretty good. I've not seen these locally for anything less than $289.

Let us know how it shoots. My anniversary model hits 2.5" low at 50'

Good shootin'

Complete with the spare .22 Win. Mag cylinder? If so, you did very well.:D Even if it's pre-owned, but never shot, you still did great. I picked up a used one for that price and thought I did OK for myself.

I don't think they come new with polymer ivory. Anybody know? Anyhow, you can't go wrong with one of those guns. I have the 4" barrel. Very fun.

That's a good price, I have a Super Single Six Convertible that I've had for about 15 years. I think I paid about $180 for it then.

[MJRW]

It is certainly factory polymer ivory. It has the Ruger emblem on it. I'm thinking about going to get its brother in .32 h&r magnum. No extra cylinder, though.

ALL Single-Sixes have come with a spare WMR cylinder. If the gun was sold to you by a dealer, as NEW, then I'd be raising a stink...

This year, at least, only the .32 H&RMag seems to come standard with emblem polymer ivory.

VictorLouis,

I checked, not all new single sixes come with 2 cylinders. I spoke to Ruger on this and found it in the manual. I'll take a picture for you guys on monday.

[VictorLouis]

Current models are so equipped, at least per their site linked above. However, there's been some that were produced LR-only. I flirted with a Bisley-framed example that I didn't like as much as I thought. Sold it for a wee profit.;)

[MJRW]

This might throw a bit more of a wrinkle in things. Its a color cased blue Vaquero .22. Catalog number BNV-225-SI. BNV is the precurser to the color cased blue Vaqueros. Middle set means .22, 5.5". I know the "I" in "SI" means ivory. Don't know what the S means yet. And even though it was NIB, he got it in his inventory in February of 2002.

The .22lr revolver has to be my fav. handgun of all. $200 for a Ruger Single Six? You did Very Good.;)

I have purchased two Single Sixes in the last couple months. One was a stainless 4 5/8" and the other was a much longer barreled (6-7" I don't know exactly) blued Bisley model. The regular Single Six came with two cylinders, the Bisley came with one.

I am sure you will really enjoy your purchase. I have put a lot of rounds downrange with a Single Six. Since the ammo is so cheap, you get a lot of practice for you money. I bought both those revolvers I mentioned above at the same time. Within a week I had put over 700 rounds through them combined. Really a lot of fun.

You did well I'd say .. I bought this S/S single six new some while back .. it's 6 1/2 barrel ........ paid a tad too much i think but .... it was one of those ''must have'' moments ..... :p Very nice to use with the .22 Mag cylinder.

I forgot to point out that the polymer ivory grips are about three times the price of the rosewood ones in the Ruger on-line catalog. The gun sounds like a beauty.
