If you were to own just one revolver, what would it be?

[Vastator]

I also have the Single-Six. I only have the magnum cylinder for it at the moment. Kind of a funny story with this pistol. My son was rucking around the property with it, and somehow lost it. We looked, looked, and looked never could find it. Well... Being as it was fall, he had an idea. I wasn't home at the time, or there is no way I would have greenlighted this brainstorm. He raked clear lines in the woods where he thought he lost it, which amounted to about a quarter acre. And grid, by grid; he burned the ground cover. Sure enough, when I got back, I came home to a Half acre of burned woods, (ground cover only, it got away from him), and the pistol! That's why one slab looks black, and on that same side the blueing is gone.

Don't know, don't think so but I'm not a big Ruger fan. I know the newer ones are all cerakoted which to me makes them ugly looking, I'm too much of a traditionalist when it comes to single actions.

They have their place as a low-cost/good quality field .22 in today's market. Hands and feet better than a Heritage or the newer Diamondback. Performance in the field outweighs looks.

They are fun to mess with too. I reversed the frames on the bottom two and the funny thing was the balance improved on both....I have another still NIB in my grandson's safe.

Are they a Colt Scout or a Ruger New Model S-Six? No but they were never intended to be. Decent quality at a budget price point.

The Ruger NM Single Six (top) I had shortened. They never made one in that barrel length....Very handy.

Looks like a H&R 922 or 929.....My dad gave my granddad one but it had a 4" barrel....It was used in a home defense situation where a woman killed her Ex-Husband that broke in. Dad worked the case so she gave it to him when he went to return it to her.

Since this is the one in my drawer...

.

Now that's the kind of revolver that anyone can appreciate ... It gives you multiple options.

In a worst case scenario ... You know, like zombie apocalypse and out of ammo ...
You could still grab it by the barrel and cave their skulls in ...

I damn near bought a 926 the other day but it was missing the rear sight blade and adjustment screws. Not so much for the missing parts but the price was about $50.00 too high.

Yup. The 929... The holster cost me more than the pistol!

Mine was the first piece I ever bought. The 500 was the last wheel gun I bought, just to make a fine book end. With the ammo being $3.50 a pop it's basically a safe prince.

I have a Navy Yank .36 ...
Need to dig it out, and it has been quite a while since I shot it ... Fun though.

Never hurts to have a firearm where you can melt fishing weights and shoot them if needs be.

Real old school.

The CS tongue and wreath was the first thing I ever dug whilst relic hunting just down the road from where I live.

Who made it?

I like those old "even top" holsters for field holsters, lots of protection for the weapon.

I don't think anybody makes a "even top" any more....I guess the closest are the DeSantis speed scabbards.

Yep, same as my "even tops"....Maybe they were the only ones to make them.

Great vintage holsters.

 

[hjmick]

Wait... would this be considered a revolver?

It does revolve around a central point...
