ruger single nine

ruger just introduced a nine shot 22 mag single action. my first thought was why wouldn't they just make an extra cylinder for the single ten. :uhm:

I'll stick with six.
Wouldn't that be 36 degrees? 36 x 10 = 360 full circle
I'll probably get flamed for saying it but I think Ruger has gone down some since Bill Ruger passed. Sure they are doing well business wise and their products are still of very high quality it just seems to me that a lot of their new products are poorly thought out and not promoted properly. Ol' Bill wouldn't have let his company tool up to produce two different guns when they could produce one for a fraction of the cost that would sell just as well.
He is probably turning over in his grave over what they did to his Mark II also.
How can it be an 8 shot and a single shot? Do you mean single action?
Anyway I have a S & W Model 317 Airlite. It is an eight shot double action .22 revolver. It has a three inch barrel with adjustable sights. It weighs less than 10 ounces. It is so handy to carry and I don't even notice it on my hip that I carry it over either my Ruger MK II or my Single Six. In fact I took the LR cylinder out of my Single Six and put the magnum cylinder in, probably to stay.

Was it called a "Double-Nine"? Or was that an H&R?

Hi-Standard Double Nine
But check out those sexy gunfighter grips....:roll:
You are correct, I meant to say Single-Action not single shot. Thanks for catching it.

Teach, I am thinking that they did. I do remember back in the 1960's my Dad bought my Mom a .22 revolver for personal protection. Now this 9 shot .22 revolver was purchased from the local Western Auto store in NC, and although it was stamped Revelation, witch was a Western Auto exclusive store brand, I am thinking now that you mentioned it, maybe the gun itself was made by High Standard, for the Western Auto stores.. My dad let us shoot that gun on the weekends sometimes along with our .22 ss rifles... I always liked that little 9 shot revolver, I don't know what ever happened to it, I think when Mom and Dad divorced in the late 1970's Dad sold it.. IIRC also the little 9 shot .22 could fire .22 shorts, longs and long rifles...
