I have a Single Six built in 1958. I'd like to find the manual that accompanied the gun when it was originally sold. An original copy would be great but would be satisfied with a reproduction as long as the look and format are the same as the original.

I checked the Ruger website but it appears the manual is out of production.

If anyone has a suggestions as to where I might find one I would appreciate it!

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide.
 
Just do a search , I have found manuals for some of my old Winchester 22,s online and downloaded and copied them .

You can place a WTB ad here in the classifieds.
Be fore-warned. They are not cheap,, as in that time period,,, it was a 4 model manual. It was for the Single-Six, the Single-Six Lightweight, the .357 Blackhawk, and the .44 Mag Blackhawk. It has a cover marking saying; "Revised March 31, 1957". And there are also variations of this manual as well. The one I'm looking at has a date code on the back of ISR-20 M-9/58.
So, it was published in September 1958.
A copy will be much cheaper. Originals sell for $50 or more.

Tried that without success. Maybe I didn't look hard enough. Will try again.

thanks!

Wow! I'd have to pass at $50. Will continue to search for a reproduction.

Thanks for the info!
 
you can find reprints on Ebay I have have read remarks on here, people slamming Ebay. But I have found 1-10 Speer reload books. 1950 's Ideal-Lyman manuals. Plus Shooting Times from 1964 introducing the .41 Magnum.
