Ruger Security six

[machinist1]

Does anyone know any thing about Ruger Security sixes? I would like to know what they are worth. When were they discontinued? I just purchased one that is in excellent condition. The paw hasn't wore the blue off of the cylinder yet. It has a 4" barrel with adjustable sights.

Thanks,

My book say's mfg. 1970-85 Model 117 is 357, 6 shot, 2 3/4, 4(heavy), or 6 in barrel, adj. sights, checkered walnut grips, square butt.

60%-$140, 70%-$150, 80%-$160, 90%-$185, 95%-$195, 98%-$225, 100%-$300

Add $15 for target grips.

Model 717 Stainless version of model 117

95%-$230, 98%-$255, 100%-$300

 

500 stainless models were made for the Calif. Highway Patrol in 38 spl. and are marked CHP. A premium may exsist for this in some areas.

 

Hope this helps,

Swamprat, Thanks for the info. Where did you get the info. I need a got source for Ruger info.

"Blue Book of Gun Values" Available at any book store. Another good purchase is "Standard Catalog of Firearms". As far as a strictly Ruger book goes I can not help you. I find that having the current editions of the above books gives me a good value guide. One just lists prices while the other also has pics.
