RUGER Security Six 4" Stainless .357 Magnum Double Action/Single Action Revolver, Liberty Bicentennial 1976
Description:
Sturm Ruger Security Six Stainless 4" .357 Magnum DA/SA, Liberty Bicentennial, 1976 Production
Used in gray hard case (nonoriginal)
Ruger's Security-Six made its debut in the early 1970s. It was a midsize, strong revolver chambered for .357 Magnum. Ruger designed this midsize revolver with an investment-cast frame to provide a strong and reliable but relatively lightweight service handgun at 34 ounces.
In production in 1971 and generally available by 1972, the revolver was offered in blue steel. The barrel was four inches long, and it was chambered in .357 Magnum. A few were chambered in .38 Special, and there were numerous variants: the Police Service-Six; Speed-Six; and variations with a square butt and round butt, respectively.The Security-Six offered the most rugged adjustable rear sights of the day, and a ramp front sight offering an excellent sight picture. The hammer spur is easily grasped to cock the revolver for single-action fire. Ruger’s Single-Six wasn’t the first to use a transfer bar action, but it was a step forward in magnum revolvers. Today a variation of the transfer bar action is used in most revolvers.
The Security-Six can be field stripped with nothing but a coin. Remove the grips, cock the hammer, put the supplied pin in the hammer spring, and slip out the action.The Single-Six featured a solid frame, eliminating the side plates, and was a strong design. Leaf springs were replaced by coil springs. The cylinder release presses in to release the cylinder to be swung out for loading or unloading. At the time the Security-Six was introduced, the major ammunition makers were developing the 125-grain .357 Magnum cartridge for law enforcement use. This powerful load was hard on the guns of the day, but the Security-Six suffered less than most. The Security-Six is a good choice for anyone wishing to own a versatile defensive handgun with a good balance of weight to power. And it’s a piece of history because the Security-Six paved the way for Ruger’s successful double-action revolver lineup. This stainless Security-Six is a 4 inch model known as the Liberty model, produced in 1976 for our nation’s bicentennial anniversary.
