Rye Miles #13621 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Got this today, slightly used , great price. I got this to go with my Heritage .22 and my Henry .22 rifle. Now I'm ready for the Buckar-OLD category! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbeard Jake Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Still waiting for mine to land here in Denmark. I ordered the same colour as yours. I have a belt and holster from Galco awaiting it's arrival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocWard Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 We've had a few in at the store. If we get one in in black cerakote, I might have to jump on it. "Crushed Orchid" though, doesn't quite suit me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW it’s called Burnt Bronze Ceracote, I kinda like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took a picture and sent it to Mrs. Doc. Even she was taken aback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 A lot of old single sixes turn purple. They call it "plum". Many people pay extra for that color. Maybe that's the look they were going for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imis Twohofon,SASS # 46646 Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 I like mine real well. I shot them last weekend in "Plinkerton" category. They are still a little stiff, but worked well. Clean them before a match, the chambers are snug and residue may inhibit full seating making the cylinder drag. Only problem I had. And I was told it was easy enough to hear hits.

JP McLintock Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 I have a silver and a bronze one, they are great shooters, been using them for rat patrol in the chicken coop, I lightened the main, trigger and loading gate springs a bit, I like them, but my son thinks the barrels are to short, he's used to 6 1/2" ones on his rough riders.

Joe Cross, SASS #13848 L Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Shot mine at our 22 match yesterday - no hitches or glitches. Not as smooth as my old single six, but, a good shooter for 200 bucks. Gonna shoot it in for a while before I take it apart and smooth it up and maybe change springs.

watab kid Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 i still cant buy these in this state according to what i was told , i do have a pair of frontier scouts of 68 & 69 vintage that fill my holsters just fine and i consider them in the same catagory even if not in that price range [but then i already own them] as well as a single six and a peacemaker that fit the holsters [i already own them too] so im not looking to buy any wranglers yet , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
