Model 17 or Ruger Single Six?
As the title states.... I love my Model 29 Classic, very much so but do you think the price upgrade of the 17 is worth it over the Ruger Single Six? .22 Mag cylinder is neither here nor there for me... Have a few .22 Mag rifles to choose from.
Autumn's wrists cannot deal with the 29 or CZ97B for long but she really likes making "wagers" with me at the duelling tree while we are at the range, so thusly this is damn important to me .... What say ye? Thanks Much!! Dirk |

You ARE aware that "single" is indicative of action type, right?
Double action vs Single Flip-out cylinder vs chamber door Full cylinder eject vs one-at-a-time punch-down Full K-frame stocks vs scrawny 1800's grip? puh-leeze.

I can't speak to any current-production quality woes, just not familiar.
But if this is any solace, look up the resale value of a Single Six. Compare to the princely sum a used 17 will fetch.

BTW: if you want to just pick up a plinker, buy a new Heritage for under 200 and bang away.
