Few hours later, I got an email from her. A nice older lady (probably younger than me, but I still refuse to see myself as an old man), answered the phone, and told me she will personally look into the old books (NOT computers!), and send me an email. The page on the Ruger website, stated that my new Single Six does not exist! It's a 66- prefixed serial.supposedly from 1979.but nope. One of the first things I needed to know, is it's "birthday". But as I am "anal retentive" (according to my wife), I "needed" to know everything about this model, and the actual piece, so a LOT of night time reading went into it so far. ![]() Anyway.this old SS came to me in a form of a Father's Day present, and it needed some urgent help to bring it back to it's original condition (still working on it). I own MANY weapons (since I've been in the uniform for 25 years in many different theaters, many things "followed me home"), but I never had a single action Ruger (plenty of other brands though, DAs from S&W, SAs from Remington, etc.). It was given to me as a Father's Day present (a month or so ago), by my son in law (yup, my daughter married a "gun nut", just like her old man is). Original post in this thread prompted me to post something about my experience with my Single Six (as far as it's "pedigree"). ![]() I am new on this forum, but far from "new" as a whole.
