This is a superb Ruger Single Six Flat Top 3-Screw Revolver in .22 Long Rifle, manufactured by Sturm, Ruger & Co. in Southport, Connecticut. The serial number 20-67841 confirms production in 1970, as verified by Ruger’s Old Model Single Six production tables, which place serial numbers in the 20-xxxxx range for that year. Introduced in 1953, the Ruger Single Six was the company’s first firearm, inspired by the Colt Single Action Army but modernized for the .22 LR cartridge, with many later models, like this one, being convertible with an additional .22 Magnum cylinder. The 3-screw flat top configuration, without a transfer bar, is highly prized by collectors for its original design and distinctive three-click hammer action, unchanged from the pre-1973 models. Its historical significance lies in its role as a cornerstone of Ruger’s rise to prominence, blending Old West aesthetics with affordable, reliable performance for plinking, small game hunting, and cowboy action shooting.

This example is in excellent overall condition, showing minimal signs of use, with the blued steel finish and aluminum grip frame well-preserved. The 5.5" barrel and bore are bright, indicating careful maintenance, and the revolver is mechanically excellent, ensuring smooth operation. The grips, walnut as standard for 1970, are in excellent condition. Only the .22 LR cylinder is confirmed installed. All markings, including the Ruger logo and serial number, are crisp. As a Curio & Relic firearm, it is eligible for direct shipment to C&R license holders.

Safety Note: Without a transfer bar, this revolver should be carried with the hammer on an empty chamber to prevent accidental discharge if dropped.
