Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Introduced in 1953, the Ruger Single-Six revolutionized Western-style single-action revolvers by blending classic Colt single-action ergonomics w/ modern coil-spring lockwork and precision American manufacturing. The earliest and most coveted production variants feature the iconic "Flat Top" frame top strap paired w/ a Micro-adjustable rear sight. Manufactured before the introduction of the transfer bar safety mechanism, these early 3-screw "Flat Top" revolvers offer the traditional half-cock loading gate manipulation, audible 4-click hammer action, and exquisite hand-fitted lockup that purists and Ruger collectors revere. Low four-digit serial numbers from the initial 1950s production era command significant collector demand.
This specific example is an authentic 1954-manufactured Ruger Flat-Top Single-Six bearing early four-digit serial number 9502. Chambered in economical .22 Long Rifle, it features a 5.5-inch barrel, factory blued steel frame, Micro adjustable rear sight, ramp front sight, and original black checkered hard rubber grips w/ Ruger silver "Black Eagle" medallions. Preserved in fantastic vintage condition w/ deep original bluing, a mirror-bright bore w/ crisp rifling, tight cylinder lockup, and authentic traditional single-action lockwork, this early Flat-Top Single-Six is an investment-grade 1950s Ruger collectible ready for display or placement in any advanced single-action revolver collection.
