So, I have my eye on a New Model single six at the local shop. I know it's "convertible", and comes with a spare .22 WMR cylinder.
Problem is, I have no desire to take up shooting .22 WMR. Quite happy with regular ol' .22LR. Is there a way that I can write Ruger and send back the spare cylinder in exchange for a replacement .22 LR cylinder?
Or, can I sell/trade the .22 WMR cylinder to someone, in exchange for their .22 LR one? I'm curious if anyone has done this, or if it's even possible. I know that proper revolver function relies on proper timing, and indexing, but I have no idea if that would even be something I'd have to worry about seeing as they're interchangeable anyhow.
So, any advice? I'd love to pick it up, but if I'm gonna be paying for a cylinder I'll never use, it's not as tempting as I thought.
Thanks ya'll!
