Do any of you happen to go to gum shows and have an idea what a used single six sales for these days, the new style?

Gunbroker has a lot single 6’s and is generally cheaper than any gun shows ive been to recently

Thanks, I'll take a look.

I've been using https://truegunvalue.com/ when looking at gun values.

When looking at gun broker don't forget to add shipping and transfer fees to the listed price.

Around here the used ones in decent shape start about $400 and go up from there.

Around my area a single six in decent shape starts about $400 and goes up or down depending on the condition

I have one but it's not for sale!

I remember paying $180 for the stainless steel single six with a mag cylinder
Oh the good old days.

I bought my 3 screw Single Six in 1971 on my 21st birthday. Like new with extra cylinder and holster, $75. Have packed it many miles. Good shooter with much of the blue gone. Had the factory conversion kit installed long ago. Still have the original parts.

I’ve got a couple new style and two or three 3 screws. One is Nib from 71. 400 is a good number on a new style. I have a few bearcats as well. Both new and old. Prefer the bearcats for the trap,one. Fwiw.

I bought a stainless Ruger with two cylinders back in 1978. I don’t take it trapping, too nice of a gun for me to beat up.

I paid $550 for one in nearly new condition two years ago, with a mag cylinder, all original boxes and papers. Dang nice gun

I see these Wranglers for a reduced price, and have questioned the quality of those compared to the single six. What say you?

I've got dad's old single 6 with box and mag cylinder, he paid 60 bucks back in the day. Its written on the shipping box and has the ruger box inside. Total safe queen saw a 3 screw at scheels for 999 a year ago
