Now that I have finally worked out my computer bugs, I wanted to share the Ruger Security Six snub that I scored from Bud's in Lexington about a month ago. The last pic is with the Tyler T-grip I ordered for it, which greatly improves the grip using the original grip panels. Haven't been able to shoot it yet, but hopefully will in the next couple weeks.

Great find, I love the six series! I'm lucky to have a 4"&2 3/4" security and my favorite a2 3/4" speed six, all in SS. Bigly underrated, simple to take apart and built like a tank! How many handguns are made to disassemble with only a dime? Lucky to find a good one under $500 lately.
Good luck with yours

I love the six series Rugers. Just can’t seem to find any around here lately. I have been looking for a Security for a while. Here’s a picture of my Speed.

That did it! You folks with stainless snub Speed Six revolvers have given me a new "grail gun" to hope for. Note I did not say "look," as there are none to be seen... any Six revolvers. My 3" bbl Wiley Clapp GP100 is a smooth gun and a reasonable substitute, but I find the frame to be too big for EDC.

Congratulations! I sure wouldn't mind having 1 like it! I bought a brand new 4 incher in 1976. Kept it a couple of years & sold it. It was Bi-Centennial marked. Was $157 new then. Bob
 
Hay, pmosley, I love those grips, awsume where did you find them?

To my knowledge, they are early Eagle Sambar grips, likely late 70's, early 80's - I lucked in to a local to me seller on E-bay who had sold his Ruger collection and no longer needed these grips.

They are thick, but feel good in the hand and lend to a great purchase on the revolver while shooting.
 
Great pick up, I do like the Security Six, Speed Six, Service Six. Looking to grab one soon. Enjoy

A BLUED 2 3/4" SPEED SIX HERE.

With finger grooved rubber grips it makes a very comfortable, good in the hand feel/pointable magnum shooter, OWB belt carry field gun. Tight lock up, good trigger. A fantasy of removing ALL the warning stampings, re-bluing to a deep/rich blue, nice custom grips, would make one very good looking BBQ type gun, If you don't mind spending more "pimping" it than the original cost.
 
I just bought a stainless 4" Security Six a couple of days ago because the Smith .357s were so high priced. Didn't really want the Ruger but it was only $400 in excellent condition and the wood service grips fit me fine and Smiths always need target stocks. The action is really smooth but the hammer and trigger return springs seem much stouter than necessary and I saw a Wolf spring kit at Midway for about 9 bucks so I think i'll try one of those.

Love the speed hammer! A bobbed hammer is just a bobbed hammer, but a speed hammer is old school cool.

This one I bought for my Dad, as a gift for being Best Man at my wedding. The same day I bought myself my first J frame, a stainless no lock model 60.

I have been tempted by two of the short, adjustable sight versions of the Ruger. Wish, now, that I'd given in.

Only saw those two in many years of looking.
