Ruger Security Six Question

[richardm]

I have a Ruger Security Six starting in Serial Number 150-xxxx that no longer has the original wooden grips. The weapon is in .38 special with fixed sights and appears to be unfired with the exception of the improper grips. Any assistance in obtaining grips is grealty appreciated.

CDNN has an assortment of original Ruger grips at this site: http://www.cdnninvestments.com/gripcolsizfo.html

Sir,

Thank you very much for the information. I will give them a try.

No, those CDNN grips won't fit the early 150 series, Security-Six grip design! They will only fit the 151 and up serial number prefixes and some of the #150 series serial numbered guns that also had the newer #151 and up grip frame style!:banghead:

I have one of these 150- series guns as well. Great revolver but finding grips for it has so far proved a fruitless task. The vast majority of this type of revolver seems to have been the 151- series and grip makers ignore the 150- series crowd because of this. I have not seen a single 150- series grip anywhere I've looked! I do have the stock grips on mine.

Grips are hard to find? A perfect excuse to ship it to a custom grip maker!

Keep an eye out on ebay, yea I know they're the pitts, but once in a while there are some listed there.

Are you looking for original grips or after market grips?

Some of the older Jay Scott grips were made to fit the 150 prefix and the later guns. The easiest way to tell if they'll fit the early and late guns is the grips will have two grip pin holes.

I know Hogue makes or did make some overmold grips for the old 150's. I used to have some, in fact.

Thanks for information. I'll keep an eye out on E Bay. Hopefully a grip maker recognizes the apparent need for replacement / upgraded grips for this weapon.

I may actually HAVE a set of factory wood grips for an early Security Six in perfect condition (because I installed a set of aftermarket grips immediately after I bought the gun new). I sold/traded the gun over 25 years ago but ran across the grips recently in a box-o-parts. How can I tell if they're the "old style" for the 150 series? I'll be glad to help you out.

The CDNN grips won't fit. You can have a set made to order by Herrett's, which are top quality.

See this thread for other comments, and for a source of grips that will fit.

INAL, but I think with fixed sights it's a "speed six".

Speed Six and Service Six both had fixed sights.
