I have one with a 5 1/2" barrel, added a .22 Magnum cylinder I found at a gun show, and had it fitted to my Single Six.

Love the 3 screws.
I have 2 5.5 inch 3 screw SSs. Both flat gates and both unmolested.
1955, and 1956 vintage.

Bought mine new in 1959.
Still a solid, tight wheel gun.

Cool! That one looks like it’s in good shape, probably shot a while then set aside for years on end.
I really like the look, the old 3-screws remind me a lot of the Vaquero styling with the rounded front sights.
When you get a chance to shoot it let us know how it does for you.
Stay safe.

shoots dead on, only fired 12 rounds but tight group, point of aim. Trigger was nice and crisp in break.

What is that, a 7" barrel? Wow ! That may be part of the reason it is so accurate.

I'm happy that people can buy Wranglers and Rough Riders now. More power to them.
The Single Six is a different class of revolver, though. I've owned three and they've all been outstanding.
This one was a rescue revolver that was badly abused. I nursed it back to health and it shoots dead on.

I bought my 3 screw in '61. It shows some holster wear on the end of the barrel and front edge of the cylinder because it rode many a mile on my hip in my younger years. I consider the single six to be the ultimate of the reasonably priced SA 22 revolvers ever made.

Cylinders. I keep wanting to get a ten shot lr for my 1957 5 1/2 inch. I'll get around to it one day. Old Models need the original cylinder sent in.

You use silver bullets to dispatch that possessed coyote?
There are a few coyotes in my subdivision that I wouldn’t mind seeing culled out.
Stay safe.
