Do you think because wranglers are inexpensive that that will make a single six sell for less ?

I doubt it. The Single Six and Wrangler are really in two different 'classes' of revolvers. All you have to do is pick one up and the difference is quite obvious.

The single six is a nicely finished well built gun, like a mini Blackhawk. I would bet it stays the same. The Wrangler is a great entry level gun.

I think most knowledgeable people will see the difference in quality. I doubt it hurts Single Six prices.

Yep. If nothing else I see the Wrangler as an "entry level" introduction to Ruger single-actions. Wonder how the trade-in value on them will be?

IMO lower end products have a lower 2nd hand value than a higher end product
like a single six! Even percentage wise! IMO Ruger should build only top notch
firearms let Heritage and them jokers have the junk market. Low end is exactly that!
JMO as usual!

I don't see that happening. The worst case scenario is that it may slow purchases of used Single Sixes a bit but not devalue them. So now is the time to shop for a single six, new or used. There's so many available, you can just about pay whatever you want for a used one if you look log enough.
