Steeped in history, the Ruger Single-Six was first introduced in 1953 to satisfy the burgeoning post-war interest in Western-style firearms. The New Model, brought to market in 1973, features Ruger's advanced transfer bar safety mechanism, allowing for safe carrying with all chambers loaded—a significant evolution from its predecessors. The .22 LR caliber is not just a nostalgic nod to the past but an economical choice for target practice, small game hunting, and plinking.
This revolver is a celebration of classic design, with its Single Action Only operation offering an authentic cowboy shooting experience. Whether you're a seasoned collector or a recreational shooter, the Ruger New Model Single-Six is an attractive addition to any firearm collection. Its durable stainless steel finish ensures longevity and ease of maintenance, while the inclusion of the original factory box enhances its collectible appeal.
