Just what my budget needed

When they put this out with the 7 1/2" barrel I'll be interested. I already have a Single Six convertible with a 5 1/2" barrel.

 

[The Norseman]

Interesting. I was wondering how long Ruger
would put adjustable sights on that Wangler.

Now I’m interested!

 

[rem58sport]

.....and 22 WMR.

That's the first Wrangler they've offered that made me stop and look again.

 

[RansV-Rex]

I have the original Wrangler...well made gun, but not easy for me to shoot. I like fixed sights...have a safe full of fixed sighted Ruger Vaqueros and Uberti single actions....but the sight on the Wrangler is VERY difficult for my old eyes to see. Consequently, it is pretty much a safe queen as I much prefer the Heritage over the Wrangler sights for shooting the cheaper guns. I think the adjustable sights are a great addition, but I won't be buying one.

 

[NH Rugerman]

I didn’t expect to see these options together, but I guess it only makes sense to offer adjustable sights with a convertible revolver….Is this the death knell for the Single Six line?

And now we know why they haven't released the fixed sight wrangler with a 5 1/2” barrel…

$60.00 more at list price for the magnum cylinder and adjustable sights….

 

[BULL'S-EYE]

YES!

 

[dobegrant.45]

Uhm, have 2 single six combos, 2 wranglers a 4 5/8” and a 7 1/2”, a single nine and a single ten, will have to see one of these in person

Looking good there Ruger!!!!!!

 

[any ruger]

Sounds like they're making the wrangler to phase out the single six. Cheaper to make better profit ?

 

[Rocdoc]

Cylinder frame allow steel according to specs. Put me down for a one

Baby Blackhawk.

Looking at the specs, weight is greater than a blued Single Six and almost as much as a stainless one. To me, the only attractive thing is the price. Maybe ok for a kid's gun, but then there might be other options that are cheaper/more attractive.

 

[hittman]

,….. the only attractive thing is the price.

It’s a Walmart world

I don't know about phasing out, but maybe a cheaper viable alternative? Single Sixes are getting pretty expensive especially for first time buyers.

Not sure about the profit angle either. Ruger is in business to make a profit but could this be a competition issue? I won't debate quality but you can buy a Heritage Arms revolver for the half the price of the original Wrangler. This is not lost on consumers. The new features may position them better in the market place. I have several Wranglers but this might entice me to buy another.

 

[Randyzzz]

Steel frame and adjustable sights! Ok…I’m in. I wonder what street prices will settle at?

I never cared much for my Wrangler, but my Single Six is one of my favorites. The Super Wrangler looks like they made a Single Six for a “truck gun”. I like it. I saw the release a day or two ago and initially wasn’t interested. I liked the adjustable sights, but now that I see it has a steel frame too…gotta get one!

The sights are the reason I don't own one now. I will check this version out.

 

[Hawk-in-Wi]

the biggest thing I Don't like about my Wrangler is the loading gate , it's darn hard on your thumb, they need to shape it a little different and make it easier to open

 

[HAWKEYE#28]

Where is the 4 5/8" barrel??

 

[Ale-8(1)]

Can't help it. To me, this just looks like a Super Single-Six with color-choice Cerakote finish instead of blued . . . at an attractive price when compared to the SSS. Not sure what Ruger is up to here. JMHO

 

[xtratoy]

In the video , Scooth00 at 6:20 says it has an alloy aluminum frame but Ruger specs says alloy steel frame. I wonder how he got it wrong since he had the gun in hand. Since it comes with the Magnum cylinder I believe Ruger specifications are probably correct. Just waiting for the 7.5" barrel version since the fixed sight Wrangler now has a 7.5" barrel.

 

[Ale-8(1)]

At 00:17 in Ruger's video it's described as a steel cylinder frame!

 

[bigbillyboy]

Nice ! Glad to see adj. Rear sight

 

[Yoter]

Adjustable sights are a plus.

 

[arfmel]

While I’m glad Ruger came out with this, I’m also glad I already have a lifetime+ supply of good ol’ Single Sixes. (Probably one would suffice at this point in the journey)

That was my first thought; that they’re probably going to discontinue the Single-Six line …

 

[57springer]

Are these revolvers in the shops yet ?

Me too.
