Is this a Single-six?
« on: January 19, 2015, 09:43:25 PM »
Is this a Ruger singer six? Or just a Ruger 17hmr? Reason I'm asking I'm wanting to see if I can buy the 17M2 cylinder for it. If anyone know the answer is love to hear it. Thanks!

Doesn't look like it according to the serial number list.

That's a new model single six. Available in .22lr, .22wmr and .17hmr.

No .17m2.

I've never tried but I think there's more to it than just buying another cylinder for them too. Sonething about timing and stuff. Not sure. Just seems I've been told that as part of a threat/warning to not lose the extra cylinders I have.

Single Six, for sure. You might be able to buy a solid cylinder and have it worked to make it a 17 Mach 2.

I've never seen a 17 mach 2 cylinder, but some say they exsist.

They exist. I have a friend that has one.  Myself, I just stuck to a Taurus Tracker in 17HMR for trapping and am happy.
