Colt .38 army special from 1902 and a Ruger super six .22 from I'm not sure when. My great grandfather carried the colt every time he left the house. Sure doesn't look like it.

You can check the numbers on the Ruger single six.
If it says "new model" it was made after about 1973.
I have a couple of Ruger single six revolvers.

I love the wheel guns.

I tried to run the numbers through their website. Mine isn't there. It appears to be around '66 but I have to email them to get the exact date. Colt numbers are way easier to find.

And that was supposed to say "single six". Autocorrect strikes again.

Here's a chart.

Ruger Single Six Standard Serial Number History


If it's really that old its an "old model" and doesn't have a transfer safety bar.
Dont carry it fully loaded. The hammer rests in a round, just like the old cowboy guns and can discharge if dropped or banged around.

Ruger makes a fine, overbuilt firearm.

Did I mention I really like wheel guns?
Lol
The S&W .357 posted earlier is a birthday present from my wife.
:D

One of my all time favorites. I always felt Sig never really got the respect they deserve.

That's because they are priced like a Pinoy mechanical.
Sigs are sweet, just pricey in a flooded market.
Very nice. And good ole Uncle Mike's pocket. I have run through two of those and I mean litterally "through", but they are great, cheap and comfortable, S&W .357 snubb.

That's a Cobra CB 9 9mm 2 shot derringer stickin out of the Uncle Mike's.
Great little pocket cannon for desert trips, and the nightstand.

I dig the older style stuff too.
I prefer my guns more "John Wayne" than "John Wick".

Gotta admit though, John Wick practically redeemed Keanu from the "I am an F......B......I agent" days. Plus, John Wick would be a great name for a "professional" vaper.

Loved the movie.
Keanu's best in years.

In fact, kpr will be getting an H&K P2000 next month for her birthday.
*she beat me to the post*

You're exactly right. It went back to Ruger and got a safety upgrade. I still have the original parts though.

The H&K sold its self! I love the ambidextrous mag release and the slide release is also very easy to use with small hands.
I'm not crazy about the ambidextrous mag release but I LOVE that I can release the mag with either hand!:?:

Same here. 27 years for me, this past Jan. 1.
ODAT.
Way to go!
I'm the coffee maker at my our weekly church basement haunting.
There's over 120 years of ODAT life between 5 of us regulars.
Mr. Frisbee champ Wharf Rat gave me his old 28year chip last year.
I hope he has a 29year chip for me this week.
I heard the popping sound 4/13/88
