Ruger Speed Six

[azgunner]

I am buying a Ruger Speed Six. It is a SS model with a 2 3/4 barrel. It is like new. $245 for the weapon with the box. Anyone have good/bad thoughts on this weapon. I am going to use it as a CCW weapon.

Based on the prices for a Speed Six around here you are getting a good price on a great gun. It is a no nonsense, reliable CCW weapon. It will last for ever and give you good service. I "loaned" mine to my Son several years ago and still haven't got it back. It was an old Parkerized work horse with the best double action trigger I had ever seen, and I am a S&W sort of guy. I am now looking for another. You won't regret your purchase. Keep shootin'

If it's in as good condition as you describe, I would jump on it for that price.

 

[Rexster]

If it is truly like new, that is a remarkably good price. A dealer around here might ask nearly twice that price for one with wear marks.

 

[Chindo18Z]

Unless the weapon has mechanical or finish problems...that is a screaming deal.

Fantastic revolver and built to last an eternity.

That is an insanely good price. I've seen LNIB examples going for $450 recently.

At that price, I would grab it with both hands and run like the wind.

 

[roaddog28]

That is a great price on a very underrated revolver. Very reliable, strong and handles like a S&W K frame magnum. At that price I would jump on it.

Good luck,
Howard

Buy it!!

I recently bought one that was not like new, or with the box and paid $275 before tax....$297ish after tax. I thought I got one heck of a deal. But it it is really $245 and is like new, I would be throwing elbows getting past people to buy it. Here is mine:

You got a very good buy. I just bought mine and paid 350.00 for it. I thought
I got a good buy also.Got a box of Federal 125 gr 357B to go with it.

That's a fantastic price for a LNIB Speed Six! Around here that gun would go for around $400 to $450. Let us know how it shoots.

 

[Zebraranger]

That is a great price $400. to $450 around here too.

azgunner,
What calibre? For that price, in that condition buy it before someone else does. The Speed Six is a great revolver, rugged and reliable.


Oops, a Service Six snuck in the picture.

 

[Deaf Smith]

Grab it azgunner. Grab it fast.

I'd buy it in a heartbeat and make my excuses later to my wife (like I did with the 629-1 I got last month;-)

As we Southern farmers say--"Don't look a gift horse in the mouth".

I have one that I bought many years ago and it goes on my hip around my farmland with my pet mule "Pedro". It is a great revolver . Do not pass it up.

 

[CajunBass]

I'd take a dozen at that price.

 

[ColtPythonElite]

Put me down for a dozen, too.

 

[OldCavSoldier]

A dozen, here, too, fella's!!

 

[357 Terms]

I'm jealous.

 

[foghornl]

What??? it ISN"T already in azgunner's 'Artillery Locker' ? ? ? ?

Darn good buy on a very solid serviceable revolver. Last one I saw around here (3 years ago) was priced @ $450...NO wiggle room.

 

[paddling_man]

I'd be on that like a fat kid on donuts... even if it is .38.

 

[Hondo 60]

Sounds like a screamin' deal!

But please make sure it is functionally sound.
That price would make me suspicious.

 

[rishooter]

Buy it now!!

I carried one on duty as an LEO for about 10 years.It rocks-you can drop it,get it wet,bash a perp on the head(the blood washes right off)and it shoots competently at 25 yards.

Congrats. I sold mine off years ago and have regreted it ever since.
