Ruger Single Six Vaquero?
« on: May 05, 2007, 10:31:44 AM »
I just bought a Ruger Single Six off Gunbroker and have a question about it. It looks just like a Vaquero...blued steel grip frame and ejector rod housing, case colored frame, simulated ivory grips. I've seen these on GB before in the three standard barrel lengths...this one is 5 1/2" and in .22LR only...no mag cylinder. Was this a limited edition? Who distributed? Thanks.

  They were simply fixed sight Single Sixes.  They were normally available in blued and high gloss stainless in varying bbl lengths.  They were cataloged models but were convertables - .22lr and a seperate .22 mag cylinder.  Being that yours is a blued/cch finish, I want to say it's a Davidson's edition.  I thought they were convertables however.  The box label would indicate if it was indeed a convertable using the model, proberly somthing like...
