Was in a local gun store and in the consignment case there was a mint Ruger Single Six. It was priced at $900 plus. And on the tag was the note that it had the original box. It looked like it just came from the factory. It had the
drift adjustable rear sight. I should have noted the serial number. I understand the the originals with out the magnum cylinder had a slight smaller diameter rifling and with the serial number below 50,000 something would put it in that category. I was not interested since I am not a collector. I also heard some place that the original box would command a high price. I had one of these back in the mid sixties and I do not remember the price but it was less then $75.00. Who would have thought.
