This is a .22 LR Single Six with the round loading gate, from the period after the flat gate and before the convertibles. It is not converted and in 90%+ condition with good blue that is thin in spots like the left muzzle, a turn line, and there is some scattered light freckling and rough spots that may be light pitting. I'm not sure what that stuff is on the frame in front of the right grip, I didn't notice it until I was cropping pics, but since it is also on the alloy grip frame, I suspect it is just grease or grime [EDIT: Yes, it cleaned off - see new pic]. Good shooter grade gun. It has real stag grips that are likely from the period with mellow yellow aging and strong bark. Inside the left panel is the remnants of a sticker but not enough to know what it was. I do believe the grips are worth more than the gun, probably $450 on the grips and $350 for the gun with no grips.

I got the crud cleaned off the frame. Took a new pic and put it right below the first pic that showed the crusty goo on the frame. I see I still missed a little above the grip on the grip frame - the older I get, the less effective my pre-lockdown eyeglass prescription is without additional magnification!
