GP100, 4", stainless or blued. Or both. All are great though.

Why did you have to make this so difficult? :p

I own two Ruger's as it stands. A SP101 and Vaquero 'Sheriffs model' in 45 Colt.

If you had to make me choose it would be what's next on my list to buy. A 6" Blackhawk convert in 357/9mm. With three caliber choices (.38,.357 & 9mm) it's plain to see why it would be an easy pick.
 
Um Ill take one of each please. Actually I own one of all but the LCR and alaskan. If I had to choose only one it would be vaquero. I love those guns.
 
Vaquero in .357 because it's cheaper to shoot with .38 or .357 than .45 colt and I'm not a cowboy. So it works better for my fun shooting.
 
If I could only have ONE, it wouldn't be a Ruger anything. But I own a number of Ruger firearms. Actually in terms of numbers, Ruger ranks third behind Colt and Smith & Wesson.
 
For what purpose? Is it presumed you have other firearms, or just this one?

if you could only pick one Ruger revolver for your collection wich one would it be.

I chose the SP101, as it's easy to carry concealed but still packs a good punch. I'm hoping for a Redhawk someday. I've already got a GP100.
 
"for your collection"....... hmm... one wouldn't be much of a collection, but since I use a Ruger Super Redhawk in 480 Ruger for hunting, it would have to be that one as it would be difficult to replace even though the thing is UGLY.
 
None of the above

Actually, I do own a Redhawk in .44 Mag. But it isn't my favorite, which is not listed in the poll: the Police Service Six.

I recently acquired a Police Service Six 4" blued .357 Magnum. It balances as well, or nearly so, as a 4" S&W K Frame Magnum and it costs far less. The Security Six is the same gun, but with adjustable sights, so I like them almost as much as the fixed-sight Service Sixes - I guess I just find the Service Six more asthetically pleasing than the Security Six. Both are better looking than the GP100 that replaced them though, IMHO.

I don't own a Single Six, but I'd love too. Thing is they are darned expensive in my area, and I've got a cheapie Heritage that works just fine and cost half as much. I can get the Single Six NIB cheaper (about $299) than used, as I rarely see used Single Sixes selling for less than $350 in my area. Over $400 is fairly common.

I currently have examples of 6 of the 9. My favorite is my 5 1/2" SS NMBH in .45 Colt with a .45 ACP cylinder modified to also use .45 AR.
 
A few missing there. Forgot the Speed Six, Bearcat and the Bisley models. :p I had to voter Blackhawk but greatly prefer the Bisley models albeit the Blackhawk based ones.
 
My choice would be the gp 100
I own several Ruger revolvers but this one is # 1 on my list.
