I just picked this snubby up yesterday. I bought a new 4" stainless Security 6 in 1976 and carried it on duty for a couple of years. I regrettably sold it when I switched PDs. Been wanting one ever since and ran across this snubby locally. One thing I noticed is that my 76 had a rounded, thick frame behind the cylinder while this one (made in '82) is scalloped.
Does anyone know when Ruger changed the frame design and went to the scalloped frame?
And yes, a previous owner polished the stainless finish to a high gloss. Not sure I like it but couldn't pass up the chance to get a Six again.
