Ruger Single Action Revolver Photos-Show Us Yours

Always had a soft spot for Ruger SA's. My first handgun at 16 years old was a Single Six. My favorite handgun for a little woods walking / plinking is a Bearcat.

Pictured are three .44 mag's showing the three basic different grip styles.

I think I have photos of mine......I still have 2 Vaqueros (old style), a Single Six .22 (original; no transfer bar) and a Single Six .22 Magnum. I sold my two .44-40 Vaqueros.

I see I don't have pictures of the .22s.....

Okay, so, this single Six technically is not mine. Belongs to my oldest daughter, Sarah. I converted it to a birdshead grip to fit her hand better. And a picture of her at age 15 with it. That was an awesome day!

Some fine Rugers gentlemen! :cool: I do like Ruger single actions but only ever owned one. I prefer the plow handled grips because they just look right unlike the bisleys. ;)

I agree with your opinions of the Bisley grip. I did not have one and after hearing from the folk who do and how well it handles felt recoil and such I decided to give one a try. Last year I ran across the one pictured in my previous post on this thread, a scarce as it turns out 4 5/8th inch "full size" SS Vaquero Bisley in .45 Colt, box and all for a good price.

Well after shooting the snot out of it with heavy 270gr loads I was not all that impressed with the grip. Recoil felt harder as it comes straight back more than the plow handle grip I've shot for a lot of years. Well that's why I guess they make more than one style of grips, ya run what you like!

Only 1 I have is a Ruger Bisley in 45Colt. Shot it last week. It was part of a special run for Williams Shooting Sports. Still prefer my 25-15 Smith. Bob

This is old picture 1964, when I was 14. These represent a lot of
grass mowings, snow shoveling, and coal shoveling. This was the
same year I saw the light and switched to S&Ws. Still have a few
and pick one up occasionally. Lost interest in them when they
brought out the new models.
