NICE!

Why the 73 and 66 instead of a 92?

Also when and where did you get the three screws?  Rather rare these days!

well, Lets start this at the beginning of my CAS hobby. I started off with 1  6.5 inch 3 screw in .357 and a New Model in .45, a win trapper in .45 colt and a 20 gauge Stoeger SxS. I picked up a Rossi 92 in .357 and found another 3 screw .357 but with a 4&5/8ths barrel. I switched to a 73 after I shot a friends and saw how fast they were. I wanted a 20 incg barrel, but had to settle for a 24. a couple years later I got the 66 with the 20 inch barrel and have been using that more than the 73. I still have the 92, but rarely use it. I guess you could say that as I got better at CAS, I had to upgrade my guns to match my improvement... ;D

as for the 3 screws, I've had them for a while, I try to buy any I can find that I can afford. I have a total of 5, 3 screw Blackhawks in .357 and 3 .22 Single Six 3 screw. I've paid anywhere from $100 to $400 each for them. Most folks up here don't give them a second look( Which is good for me)

I can't believe it is packed in, right in town. Looks like a ladies bridge club meeting to the immediate west of your ranges. Are those semi-outdoor ranges? Daughter is about 5 miles south on Gandy. Gonna get by one day. Mac.

Mac,

Yep outdoor with covered stations.  round us is an oil reclamation plant and a junk yard.  Some years back we had the chance to buy but the 'fudds' on the board didn't see a need!

Majer.

So you're saying the 73 and 66 are better suited?  Why?

Can any Ruger .22 take the 22 magnum cylinder? 

Around here you don't see many 3 screws and if they are for sale it's from someone who knows what he has.

Haz 2 of the 3 Single sixes I have are convertibles,and will shoot either the .22 rim fire or .22 mag, they were both made after 1959. The other was made before the .22 mag was invented(1957) and has a tighter bore so I wouldn't shoot a .22 mag through it.Here is a photo of 2 of the revolvers, I'm waiting for the purchase ticket to pick up the 3rd.

WOW!  They are beauties!  I especially like the top one with the darker stain and the checkering.

What is the barrel lenght? I want to say 6.5 but I am not sure.  I will go out on a limb and say that they are not 5.5. Wrong, aren't I)

Haz, they are both 5.5 inch, the top pistol has the original Ruger black plastic grips on it, They fade to a rich chocolate brown color from exposure to sunlight.
