Took the Forgotten Single Six to the Range Today
Ran a couple hundred rounds through it. It was windy with 10 to 12 MPH gusts ... all shot at 20 yards.

I had Gary Reeder cut the barrel to 4 5/8". I had him put a Ruger Super Single Six front sight on it and open up the rear notch. My old eyes can see it better than the small sight. I had an all-steel ejector rod housing I installed on it.

I need to do this as well. I have long neglected my little Rugers.
A couple more pictures ...

Gripframe and trigger guard I put on this gun 20-some years ago. The trigger guard I thinned to aid in my quick-draw. Or at least I thought it did.

Did you shorten the front sight?

It sure looks like it. How low was it shooting with the "standard" front?
Lovely - A keeper for sure!
