Hey guys, I've got a Speed six that I just picked up that is missing it's ejector rod washer. It's a small washer with teeth on the inside edge around the hole. This is the part but of course Numrich is sold out. https://www.gunpartscorp.com/Products/220820.htm Anyone have a suggestion as to...

Dang, if this is you thinning the herd, I would love to see what made the cut to stay! These are some beautiful guns, wish I could have bought them both.

All your points are completely valid Ronin, and while you're the first person I've come across who seems to think that DROSing a non-rostered revolver in this way is not legal, I consider your opinion every bit as valuable to me as anyone else's. I suppose I should have added "as far as I know"...

You actually can if you find an FFL willing to convert them to single action for the purpose of the DROS; then they just DROS it as a roster-exempt single action. It's not a super common practice but it's completely legal; it's a similar process to the now outlawed SSE conversion DROS's, but...

So there's a guy on gunbroker selling these: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=478867989 I did some googling, and the Century Arms import mark plus a few posts on various forums has implied to me that these may be ex-British police guns. Anyone have any info on this? I...

Hey gang, I'm looking for a Ruger Speed Six, or a Service Six if a Speed Six is unavailable. Ideally I'd love to find a blued 2.75 inch .357, however between legal complications from living in CA and the fact that these guns seem to be getting harder to find, I will take literally any Speed Six...

PM sent.

Yeah, I own both security and speed sixes so I'm familiar with the elevated rib at the muzzle end on the security sixes. I was thinking about having the barrel shortened to 2.75 inches anyway, so it might work out that the elevated portion of the rib will get trimmed off, and if not, I'll live...

Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle and need help with an awkward problem, as anyone who saw my recent WTB thread knows: A forum member PMed me saying he has a barrel for a security six for sale. Initially when I posted my thread I figured any barrel for the security six, speed six...

Hey gang, so I had a gunsmith do some modification on my stainless speed six, and he jacked it up something terrible. I've talked to a more talented smith who can save my gun, but I need to find a new stainless barrel that will fit my gun. I'd be happy with any given barrel that will fit on a...

Thanks a million Bkat, PM on the way! Very impressed by all the kindness here today, I've always loved the community on this board.

True that. And I really want the brushed aluminum or bronze one. I expect I'll just buy one direct from Tyler, I just figured I'd throw it in here given I'm also asking for the grips. Hey man, very kind of you to offer. I'm sure I could find a use for them if you're okay with that. PM inbound.

Bump!

Normally I'd have no problem with that but I don't want to buy a barrel and then have it not work, so I'd like to find out at least if it's the same threading for the various generations of guns.

EDIT: Found a barrel, now re-purposing the thread: I'd like to find a brushed aluminum Tyler T grip and a set of factory wood stocks for a Ruger Speed Six. Cosmetic condition of either is unimportant as it's going to be a working gun and is likely to get some wear anyway. As usual I'd rather...
