I recently acquired a 1974 Speed-Six, the previous owner took really good care of it. I've attached pics of it and it's brothers (1972 Security-Six and 1976 Police Service-Six). They all are blued with 4" barrels, I guess I'll have to start on the Stainless versions of them now.

NICE!!! A couple hundred more variations and you will catch up to Ron!
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...

Re: New to me Speed Six
Thanks guys, you might be right on a display Bill, I've got a few GP's and SP's and Redhawk. Need to get the Super Redhawk and keep my head down adding to the collection.

Re: New to me Speed Six
That's a good looking trio of Sixes and yes we need more displays with all of the Ruger double actions (so I'm not the only one to get picked on by the Single Action guys 
)

Re: New to me Speed Six
That is a great looking group of Sixes! It might be the traditionalist in me, but I have always preferred blued revolvers over other finishes. That combination of blue with the wood grips is just gorgeous to me.
