Ruger single six in.22l.r./.22 magnum c with 5 1/2' barrel. Condition 98%. Serial number 152093. Ruger model single six in.22 caliber/.22 magnum caliber, comes with extra.22 magnum.click for more info.

We only ask for the series number (first three) and the following two, leaving the last three numbers to be represented by 'X's'.such as 375-73XXX, TFD. This example tells us that this LCP is a 375 series pistol and that it was in the 73,000 range and was probably manufactured in October, 2010. I entered the serial number in the Ruger serial number look-up and it said no number was found. But when I excluded the 'U' at the end of the serial number, it did come up with a P series pistol shipped in 1997.

The extra cylinder, the.22 Magnum in this case, had the last three digits of the serial number stamped on its front face near the cylinder base pin hole. During 1963 Ruger began numbering the extra cylinder with an electric pencil rather than stamping the numbers.

It is pretty well-known that the Ruger site references have a few 'discrepancies'.
Best to double-check against Dougan's book and the RENE Reference.

These are not online references.
John Dougan’s book RUGER PISTOLS & REVOLVERS, THE VINTAGE YEARS 1949-1973 is a great reference work, published in 2008. Inside the front cover is a number to call to order copies 1-800-999-4697.
Mentioned above viewtopic.php?t=30544 The Red Eagle News Exchange is published several times a year. Also available is a two-volume Reference of Ruger Firearms giving extensive production numbers and serial number information . . . available via Chad Hiddleson, 1945 Clover Ave., Perry, Iowa, 50220. He posts here as chet15.
