I have one of those, but mine aint near as purty as yers! Mine was a tackle box gun. It is tight and great rifling, very accurate with 45gr DynaPoint Mag ammo. Todd
Did it come with a 22 magnum cylinder?
Hold Still Varmint; while I plugs Yer!
The Super Single Six is dual cylinder .22LR/.22 Mag as far as I know.

Now you need a “2 dogs” front sight.
Nice gun, one of those was my first new handgun too! But that was 1972 or so
Enjoy it, mine still shoots well. Just a little thinner blue than yours![]()

Purchased my first gun the day i turned 21, Ruger single six, used at a pawn shop. Now am 68 and still have it. In fact my wife claims it as hers, she loves that pistol. She killed many an armadillo, opossum,and various types of snakes with it. Haven’t shot many 22 mags tho mostly long rifles.
Even had a scope on it at one time back in the 80s.
I have my grandfather's 3 screw Single Six, he purchased it new in 1964. I take it with me on many of my outdoor excursions, and shoot it often.

My current Single-Six is a .22WMR-only RSSM form 1960.
Ruger added/fitted a LR cylinder for me, since my SS was made before Ruger made LR/WMR convertibles.

Now I lay me down to sleep
A gun beside me is what I keep
If I awake, and you're inside
The coroner's van is your next ride
