IMO,,, While not original,,, Vintage Stag work…😜 These work well on a Single Six, not so much on a flattop…🙄 Really anything nice, that is period correct. Congrats on a fine acquisition.

… Sorry ,,, I couldn't resist!

There was a time when Ruger would replace the faux finish with a re-blue when the faux failed, like a lot of them did. As for the bottom warning on the barrel, as mentioned it could have been changed out at the same time as the re-do. Either way it looks nice, has period correct grips & carbon...

The package is marked correct. It appears the contents of the package are wrong. Yes a S7 same/same S6, Blackhawk & Vaquero… Not New Vaquero,,,, There is a difference between Vaquero and New Vaquero. Hogue will make it right, good company and customer service.

I am a faithful member of the 41 Cult… OM, bought this gun because the previous owner said it was shot out & needed a new barrel, Nope it was carefully preserved with a very nice thick coating of lead… 🙄 Once cleaned out it's Shooter, and a good one. AccuSport, my sidearm during deer hunt...

This gun has obviously had some custom work performed. 1. Grips 2. Basepin 3. I suspect the Hammer is a Power Custom, notice the thumb checking, not sure about the trigger. Picture from the GB listing. … As for the cylinder, some prefer the fluted cylinder vs the Bisley Roll Marked Cylinder...

Don't let that slow you down,,, just get some 45 Cowboy Special Brass from Starline, it's even in stock. https://www.starlinebrass.com/45-cowboy-special

IMO,,, $400 on the low, $500 on the high. If it had the flatgate $600. All said, it's a nice looking 5 digit, Old Model Action. To me, I would rather own a well used, taken care of gun, old time bluing, some character, nice action, and history say's those 5 digit guns are great accurate...

32's tend to like each other,,, and can be very addictive. 32 H&R's 2 of the first SSM marked frames. 327FM's My only Double Action, and as you can see I have a little wiggle room for a S&W UC…🙄 ,,, Should you need or want to find it a new home.😁 ,,, it will have friends,,, REALLY.

By the looks of that picture, it appears the Lipsey's S&W Ultra Carry J Frame in 32 H&R,,, followed you home also. 😳 I’m envious, I have had my eye looking and no luck. Congratulations!!!

Flip it over, is the round gate a Premier? Was considered an upgrade of the time.

Congrats!!! You just missed the “SSM” marked frame (00825) the first ~800 had the “SSM”. Still a very nice gun,

With a 6 digit SN# 489960, there is no way possible for that gun to be from 56/57. I'm not sure but I think you have a LR/Magnum Convertible and your missing one or the other cylinder. A call to Ruger might tell you,,, BUT $10 to Ruger will get you a letter with the details. Single-Six...

56/57…??? I get ,,, 313042- 1960 489960- 1967 Not all serials numbers (particularly ones shipped before records were kept electronically) are available via this lookup. For older records, please select a product line below to view it's approximate first serial number shipped for the indicated...
