Picked this up this morning for $270 with tax.

Looks good in that holster.
Ruger Single Six.

That's a nice old three screw.

I believe the Single Six is one of those guns that everybody needs. It is probably the best walk around rimfire ever made.

It was sold to me as a .22LR. Well,,,, it ain't. Only got the cylinder in it. Turns out to be .22 magnum. I'm ok with that.

Thats odd...
Usually the fluted cylinder is .22lr and the magnum cylinder is non fluted and engraved as 22 mag

Yeah that is what I thought. Got it home and went to clean it. Noticed lead line in the cylinder. Got to looking, tried a round and it dropped right in. Just for grins I tried a .22lr cylinder for my Heritage and it was no go. Lucky me, I guess I have another unicorn.

Maybe somebody reamed the LR cylinder out to magnum size.

The mags are expensive but fun to shoot. They make a cool fireball.

Got it cleaned up last night. Doesn't look it. It it was, it is a damned good job. Even my Heritage revolvers have a slight shoulder in the .22magnum cylinders. The ones in the Ruger look better than they do. Even by calibrated eyeball. I really was wanting more of a plinker, but still am totally thrilled with it. Everything seems tight, silky smooth and the cylinder lines up nice on lockup. Not to mention the patina on it goes really nice with the holster.

I took the grandson to the range today. His first time to ever fire a real handgun.

So, I started him out with the Single Six. Right?

He popped a couple boxes of .22LR and was actually starting to show some nice groups.

So, I stepped it up a little and put the .22Mag cylinder in there.

He loved it. The fireball and noise made it that much more fun.

He captured this from a slo motion video he shot...

Nice. How old is he?

He's 15.

He lives with us now, and has calmed down quite a bit without all the crazyness in his life.

He's ready now.

He shot that top left group at about ten yards with .22 mag

 

[Fast Frank]

So I guess you know what I'm doing right now, huh?

 

[jrbfishn]

Very good. Respctable group period.

Can anyone give me average price for a Ruger Single Six 3screw. A friend is considering selling his to mebbut I am not sure what the average going price for them is. He bought it new in 1959, still looks mostly new and has less than 200 rounds through it.
Thanks.

Figured as much. Any idea what they might be worth?

A clean unmolested three screw with both cylinders seems to go for around 3-4 hundred around here. Depending mostly on how bad do you want it, I think.

One cylinder. .22 magnum fluted. Unlike the other one I have, this one says it is .22 magnum.
