Went into the LGS a few weeks ago. They were selling guns on consignment for a wife who's 92 husband had passed away. They had long guns and handguns - quite a collection and well cared for.
Blued steel with walnut grips just does something to me that I cannot explain. When I saw the Ruger single six .22 combo I tried to keep my cool. I had told myself that I had enough firearms and would not purchase another - so I left the shop.
I tried to get it off my mind and thought I was doing pretty good. I really needed a box of large pistol primers, so a couple weeks later I went back to the shop. Picked up my primers and thought I would check out the case where the single six had been. I was sure it would be gone but it was still there. I experienced another weak moment in self control. Attached a picture of my new possession. I have made two range trips and the sights are dead on.
Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry

Glad that you gave it a good home. Half of my guns were also ones I tried to talk myself out of.

Re: Another Ruger Single Action
Have seen my share of those lovely Single Sixes. I do understand.
Half of my guns are ones my husband MADE me buy. I blame him.
