What year (pre-fix) did they have the half moon cut out on the right side of hammer ?? PS Like in post 3,5,6 &10

I don't know what year started the cutout recoil shield, but my 1978 Speed Six does not have it, IIRC.

Hello friends and neighbors // If weight is not a concern, it is hard to beat a good old Ruger Six for a long lasting EDC .

My Speed Six, ".38 special only ", is definately built to last.

Mine has a Full recoil shield and Heavy barrel - Manufactured in 1980

Your 2 3/4 " is a twin to mine with the chrome Tyler T grip and standard grips. Mine started out life as a police duty weapon and then to Vietnam as the carry weapon of a WO flying helicopters. He came back and as he liked my GP 100 and I liked his security six we traded. It is my favorite Ruger.
