New To Me, Ruger Single Six

NR4 is the Ruger 'product code' for the particular revolver model (SuperSingle Six) and configuration of it (bbl length, blued steel,ect.)
Product code used for simpler cataloging ,inventory & production accountability.
 
Every Single Six I've shot has been a great shooter. I'd say that you got a fair deal on the one you bought depending on what part of the country you live in. People pay high prices for them in my area and that isn't true of a lot of other guns. Some guns shops won't even carry Sig pistols because they can't sell any. Go figure. I love my Sig.
 
I recall back in the late 1960's FedCo was selling Ruger single Six's. Beautiful pistol. Wish I had bought one. I believe they had a .30 caliber as well. Don't recall any .22LRs then. I bought a .30 caliber Universal carbine instead. Still haven't fired a round through it, even though I carried in on duty for several years. Still a virgin.
 
Late Single Six adopter here.
Learned to shoot a handgun with a SA 22 in high school.
Stumbled onto a run of Bisley Single Sixes.
Ordered one up, Fitted walnut stocks to replace the awful red plywood it came with.
Has a nifty "Bisley" roll engraved cylinder.

This one was issued with only a 22LR cylinder.
Purchased a MRF on off eBay and fitted it in about 10 minutes.
 
New holster. Not bad for around $28 shipped.

I love the looks of the wooden grips. But for shooting purposes and functionality, I prefer something with a little more grip. Where can I find faux stag or plastic checkered grips at a reasonable price?
 
Got the new Altamont grips in the mail today. Love them! Will post pics this evening.
