Speed Six value

[Acorn]

I found a .38 spl. Speed Six for $500.
Good price?
I feel naked not having a gun on lay away.

 

[WAYNO]

Assuming decent shape, that is a very fair price.

 

[hittman]

I'll take it.

 

[contender]

I wouldn't even allow it to sit in lay-away. It'd be marked SOLD!

 

[Acorn]

Oh well, my wife will have one more to sell off when I kick the bucket.
Providing it's still there when I get back to home.

I owned the same 2.5 in Speed Six, in Blue, and in my view, it was the best small .357 ever made. I had a S&W 2.5 in model 19, which I loved, but the Ruger was more sleek, and handled beautifully. Like an idiot , I sold it, bad, bad, bad!! Like I said; fantastic revolver, very under rated IMHO)

Very nice Sceva. I like the stags and grip adapter

Yeah, I agree, but this shop is kind of funny about wanting paid before they'll give it to me.

'sceva' , all the finish is worn off yours, mine still has all the blue........

 

[sceva]

Yeah Dan, All wore and shiny. But it's not rusty

I had a Speed Six identical to this and a matching Service Six 2.5 in with sights, and still regret having let them go!

 

[rugerguy]

yeah, I had the shiny one too, but hated the "moon clips", same for the first one I had when they came out many years ago, then I recently had this one........

Did I say I hated "moon clips".........

sceva your gun is just about "perfect" to me......

I have the Police Service Six in 357 Magnum SS (I know you said .38 Spec!), but, geez, this is a great six-shooter and I have to brag as well! Carry it as my EDC and locked my Glock 19 away as this is just sooo accurate and hard-hitting!!
Purchased mine for $300 in South Africa, mint condition earlier this year.

Luckily they still had it when I visited them on Friday.
It was much better in person than the photos showed. A small turn line but tight as a tick.
Factory grips are in nice shape also.
Obviously not shot shot much.
Only my third 6 series in the stable, but there is room for more.
Obligatory pics will follow as soon as I take actual possession.

Not .38 SPL, but, I have a speed six in .357 SS, 2 3/4", marked GS32N, US & NIS.
