Let's see your Ruger Single Six revolvers!

This is a 1978 model that I bought new. I bought it to use and use it I have. There are hundreds if not thousands of dead raccoons taken during the golden years of hunting barns in Iowa. There are hundreds of dead grooundhogs, possums and raccoons taken digging with my terriers. There are thousands of dead blocks of wood taken during the golden years of toasting wienies by the river and shooting bricks and bricks of .22 LR.

Someday, no hurry mind you, a grandson will own it. I'll be dead then and have no further need for a great shooting .22 revolver.

Heres one you don't see every day. A very early Super Stainless Single Six "STAR" with the 4 3/4" bbl. Man, is this gun accurate. Big Larry

Do you have a photo of her?
I'm going to be getting some Moose antler, that I plan to replicate ivory with, and I'd like to see how it will look.
My gun at some point in time had all the anodizing removed from the grip frame leaving it in the white high polished, and I wonder how that will affect it as well. Perhaps someone else has the same setup as mine. I know the engraved Single Sixes were done on the bare aluminum from Ruger. Right now it has the factory walnut grips, and looks good but I've always liked the look of ivory, I'm getting a big enough piece that I may even make some for my S&W M-19, all blued naturally.
The contrast will be even better there.
