Those that know me pretty much know I am an avid Ruger Double Action fan/collector. That said, I did just add another SA to my Ruger stable (YES, I did say Single Action, don't keel over with a heart attack ). It's a 1984 model BNM-7 (Maximum w/7 1/2" barrel, LNIB, never fired, very, very slight turn line from when the owner would take it out and fondle it a bit) Very good box and manual but no shipper
That said, for the single action folks to make fun of me, I now own 15 Single Action Rugers and they span the ages from a 1956 to 2021. Here's what I have:
1956 Flatgate Single Six .22LR only
Single Six Win .22 RF Mag Cal only
NM Super Single Six
OM Bearcat
NM Bearcat
NM Bearcat (ROCS Special)
OM Blackhawk .357
NM Blackhawk .357
NM Blackhawk .45 Colt
NM Blackhawk .30 Carbine
NM Blackhawk .357 Maximum
OM Super Blackhawk .44 mag
NM Super Blackhawk .44 mag
NM Super Blackhawk .44 mag (ROCS Special)
2021 Wrangler
Oh, and the OM's are NOT converted (I may be dumb at times, but I'm not stupid I learn from the SA guys)
So, maybe it's time to do a SA display by a DA collector ??

Re: Just for funnin
Congrats Ron, I figured you'd end up with the Maximum, they get in your hands it's hard to let go. I love the double-actions as you know but it's hard to be a Ruger collector without those single-actions in the safe. Show us some pics of your new toy.

Ron you better look out. That Maximum may decide to migrate West and end up having a family reunion with Coogs !!
Some people sit on $.05 of knowledge like it is the treasure of Egypt. I will teach anyone $.10 worth just to prove a point...
