Ruger Old Model 3-Screw Single-Six .22 LR Flat Latch Revolver

Early 4-Digit Serial Number

Overview

Offered here is an early-production Ruger Single-Six chambered in .22 LR featuring several highly desirable collector characteristics, including a scarce 4-digit serial number, flat loading gate latch, and classic three-screw Old Model configuration.

The flat latch Single-Six revolvers represent some of the earliest production Ruger rimfire revolvers and have become increasingly sought after by Ruger collectors. Combined with the 5½" barrel and original black checkered grips with Ruger eagle medallions, this example captures the features that defined Ruger's formative years.

Overall condition is very good with normal signs of honest use and handling consistent with age. The revolver presents well and would make an excellent addition to an early Ruger collection.
