Ruger Single six impulse buy..

[Bartojc]

Upon leaving the LGS today I always walk by the revolver case to see what’s new. Typically nothing new but a couple weeks ago there was a stainless single six in there and I was curious if it was still there. It was but the price seemed steep to me. I noticed this blued single six that at first I thought was new. When it was pointed out to me that it was used I asked to see it. It was a 50th anniversary model with both .22 and .22 magnum cylinders. Seemed to have been shot very little. Not a mark on it. Comes with everything that it came with from the factory. Price was $425. Not cheap but I thought what the heck. I can’t wait to shoot it. I’ve always wanted a single six.

That was great impulse buy!

 

[WestKentucky]

Heck of an impulse buy. At $425 you probably paid roughly market value. Fair price every direction. My 9” was $400 new in 2009 or 2010 and prices have slowly but steadily climbed. I’m somewhat surprised you got it reasonably because of this mess we are all dealing with. Well done, and done at a great time too.

 

[Ru4real]

Great buy!

You done good.

 

[Obturation]

That's not impulse, it's reflex. That means you're in top condition and your brains working correctly. Enjoy it, I want a single six...

Unlike the MkII 50th anniversary models, I rarely see anyone with a 50th SS model. I love mine. 4" barrels and gutter sights are where its at! Great buy

 

[Riomouse911]

You did a heck of a lot better than most impulse buyers who drop a tin of Altoids or a Mountain Dew into their shopping basket!

Nice buy, I certainly would’ve made the same purchase had I been there .

Stay safe.

You can't go wrong with a Single-Six convertible and that was a good price for one in such good condition. Congrats on a great find.

Great catch! You can never have too many fast handling .22 single actions.

If you hit the lottery, you might think about a Single Seven...same frame as the Single Six..

Hit the lottery? How much does the Ruger Single Seven go for, new and like new?

As John Wick would have explained it: "Yeah."

John doesn't talk a whole lot!

Truth is I went out to the truck and went back in. It just seemed to be calling me. I’ve been looking for the right one for a few years. Today everything lined up. .

That is as very fair price in SS with both cylinders if clean. Great shooters, normally shoot .22mags better in my experience owning a dozen or so over 40 years. Personal preference is the 6-1/2" bbl. All are great. Congratulations

Well you certainly chose a good one! You'll love the way it points and shoots. Trigger on mine is 4.5lbs. I have 5 total single sixes, and just bought a wrangler. And have a blackhawk. You could say im a ruger SA fan!

I like the birdshead gripframe. Versatile caliber too although I don't have one. In the early '80's I got the blued single six in the then new .32H&R magnum with a camo uncle Mike's holster. Lots of hype back when announced for that caliber. Retail was $205 then with holster. I really like the .32 platform.

Love the gun and I really dig the Shrade Sharpfinger Scrimshaw. I collect pre 2004 US made Shrades.

I have done that a couple of times before and never regretted it!

 

[Bartojc]

Speaking of one in 32, that is my new quest. I really like the birds head.

The pre '73 "three screws" are drying up too. I buy them when I can afford them.

$425 is a bargain for that model Single Six in that condition around here. Congrats on the find.

That is a very nice find. Good looking shooter. Definitely worth the money in my book.

 

[ontarget]

If I came across that deal I would have also probably went out to the truck and then went back in. But the guy that was behind me in line would be doing the paperwork on it when I got back inside.
Good impulse buy!
