Ruger New Model Single-Six Convertible .22 LR/.22 WMR Stainless Revolver, 6.50 in Barrel, 1995, Dual Cylinders, Adjustable Sights
This 1995 Ruger New Model Single-Six Convertible stands out with its brushed stainless construction, 6.50-inch barrel, and dual-cylinder setup for .22 LR and .22 WMR. It is currently fitted with the non-fluted .22 WMR cylinder roll-marked ".22 WIN. MAGNUM" and includes a spare fluted .22 LR cylinder. Built in the United States, it features adjustable sights, an exposed wide-spur hammer, and Ruger’s transfer-bar safety.
The revolver’s stainless-steel frame, cylinder, and receiver wear a uniform brushed finish, complemented by smooth hardwood grips with Ruger eagle medallions. A full-length ejector-rod housing with a round button head and the classic plow-handle grip frame round out its traditional single-action profile.
Single-action-only operation, the wide-spur hammer, and the transfer-bar safety deliver the familiar New Model handling characteristics. Target-style sighting is provided by an adjustable square-notch rear and a ramped front blade. Capacity is six rounds.
As a convertible model from the New Model Single-Six series, this revolver offers versatile rimfire capability in a durable stainless package from the 1990s era.

The convertible, dual-cylinder configuration is a key feature of this example. The installed non-fluted cylinder is roll-marked ".22 WIN. MAGNUM," and the included spare fluted cylinder is chambered for .22 LR. This setup allows easy changeover between .22 WMR and .22 LR.
Construction is stainless steel throughout with a consistent brushed finish on the frame, cylinder, and receiver. The 6.50-inch barrel is paired with a full-length ejector-rod housing and a round button head for positive case ejection.
Ergonomics follow the classic plow-handle grip frame with smooth hardwood panels and Ruger eagle medallions. An exposed wide-spur hammer, single-action-only operation, and the transfer-bar safety define the New Model action.
Sighting equipment includes a ramped front blade and an adjustable square-notch rear, providing a clear, tunable sight picture. This U.S.-made revolver represents the 1990s era of the New Model Single-Six series, manufactured in 1995.
