The New Model Single-Six Convertible pairs a six-shot fluted .22 LR cylinder with Ruger’s single-action-only operation and a transfer-bar safety. The exposed hammer has a checkered spur for positive cocking, and loading is via the right-side gate with an under-barrel ejector rod and housing. The included .22 WMR "MAGNUM" cylinder is smooth/unfluted.
The 6.5-inch steel barrel and iron sights provide a straightforward sight picture. A ramped front sight and an adjustable square-notch rear sight allow precise elevation and windage adjustments.
Construction includes a blued steel barrel, cylinder, and main frame, paired with an aluminum-alloy grip frame/trigger guard finished in black. The hammer is left in-the-white. The revolver wears smooth hardwood grips inlaid with Ruger eagle medallions, giving a secure, traditional feel in the hand.
As a Convertible model, it is chambered for .22 LR and includes a Ruger factory .22 WMR "MAGNUM" smooth/unfluted cylinder, enabling caliber changes as needed. This example was manufactured in 1987 in the United States.
