What would a good price (I would be the buyer) be for a well used but still tight SS with only the 22lr cylinder? 6.5" barrel
Thanks

Has it been converted to the transfer bar? Three screws that are unconveryed command more from what I have seen.What would a good price (I would be the buyer) be for a well used but still tight SS with only the 22lr cylinder? 6.5" barrel

I paid $450 for SS 6.5" at my LGS, but it's a convertible. If that helps. They have a used blued 5.5" convertible for 400. But that's a store so you should be able to get that for 400 or less IMO
Not all came with 2 cylinders. Do you have a ballpark age on the revolver? Earlier ones are worth more, flat gates still more.
Sounds like a bargainDo
1973 according to the serial number.
It will cost me $230 out the door at my FFL. I think I will go for it
If you send it Ruger to have the cylinder fitted to the gun they will put in their transfer bar & send your parts back with the gun.Any time you add or switch cylinders the gun needs to go to a smith that is an expert in timing and fitting. Someone who does it for a living. I would contact Ruger and see what the cost is.
Actually I'd check it 1st, I got Ebay 22 mag cylinder for mine and mounted and checked with bore size rod and found clean run all the way to the base of the cylinder on every chamber, even after several rotations, took it to the range and also shot clean and straight, no smith work!!If you send it Ruger to have the cylinder fitted to the gun they will put in their transfer bar & send your parts back with the gun.

How things have changed, I bought my 5 1/2 inch Ruger Single Six convertible in 1972/ 73 for 79.00 dollars new. I still have it . hdbiker
