My LGS has a bright stainless single six 22 caliber dual cylinder with the fixed sights and 6.5 inch barrel, and warning label on side of barrel. I am interested but it has been fired and is not pristine condition. It has the shipper and a non-original box. What is this thing worth? Did they make a lot of them? Thanks for your replies.

It's worth exactly what you are willing to pay for it. Tomorrow you can find out how much someone was willing to pay for this one. http://www.gunbroker.com/item/592615618

45....that will be a heck of a deal at $450.00, I paid more than that for my 5.5 inch model and the 6.5 inch as well. But both were LNIB, but even a shooter is worth that much, there is not that many around anymore nor many made. Hondo44 gave me some production numbers one time but I can't find where I saved it. Now the 4 &5/8 inch model would be the one to find, I think there were only 4 or 5 made in the GKNR models.

yes, I agree, the baby Vaquero stainless guns should be more than the regular stainless Super Single Sixes which around here go in the upper $475-500 range all the time..........$450 would be a "deal"

7rs.....You know you could always get some Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish and go to work on the "not pristine condition" and contact 41Mag for some nice custom grips at a super price and have yourself a dressed up shooter.....The seller might take $480.00 cash.

Well, I went ahead and bought it. Serial number 268-13xxx, part number on the box 6KNR-6F. I'll post some pics when I get a chance hopefully over the weekend. I'll spend some time with the metal polish after that. Thank you again for the replies.
