Hi Jeff, welcome to the ROCS Forum. There are several Ruger collectors who like and collect "Liberty" guns. What is the barrel length on your Single-Six?

thanks for responding,the barrell length is 5 1/2 in. I looked in the 36th edition of blue book of gun values and found no mention of this roll mark so im puzzled hope someone on this blog can help.

Ruger put that roll mark on all of their guns made in 1976. Look in Blue Book Sturm, Ruger & Co. section on introduction pages and read under "Ruger Collettibility Overview", on page 1935 of the 36th edition.
