Some were shipped with an additional.22LR cylinder, essentially the opposite of the usual 'convertible' configuration. Convertables with an optional spare.22 RF cylinder begin to appear in 1960 with serial number 310035.
Douglas, these Single Sixes marked as above were produced for three years beginning in 1959 with serial number 300000 and ending in 1962 with serial number 342450. According to my Guide to Ruger Single Action Revolvers Production Dates 1953-1973 by John C.
