good price for a service six

[acmax95]

I have been wanting a .357 for a while now and recently found a Ruger Service Six. The gun feels solid and locks up good and the bluing is around 80%. Is $200 a good price?

if you can get one at 200, jump on it

thanks for the reply. what would be the most I should expect to pay for it?

I shopped for a Ruger Speed Six, stainless in .357 with 2 3/4 barrel for a long time. Ended up paying about $500 for a very nice one. Service Sixes at the time, about 18 months ago, were somewhat cheaper. I don't remember seeing any that went for under $300 in any condition.

I paid $275 for my SS 2.75" security six 2 years ago. I regularly see 4" blue "sixes" in the $275-325 range.

I paid 250 for a blued 2 and 3/4 security six a year ago and was happy to have it. the service sixes, by me, don't turn up as much. for 200 i'd probably grab it.

$200 is a done deal. A fully functional, tough-as-nails .357 is worth every penny of that, even at 80% blue.

I bought a 2.75" Service-Six almost 2 years ago and paid $300. I just sold it to a local shop for $255 so I would say a price of $200 is a very good price...

As has been said, jump on it.

The Security Six series guns are great revolvers.

Strong and reliable.
