Ruger single six bicentennial

Question
I know that all Rugers made in 1976 were stamped "Made in 200th year of American liberty."
I have two questions:
How many Ruger Single Six's were made in 1976?
How many stainless steel Ruger Single Six's were made in 1976?

Answer
First, check the Ruger enthusiasts site for Ruger Single Action Revolvers;

http://rugerforum.net/ruger-single-action/

Also, check the Wikipedia article on the Ruger Single Six;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruger_Single_Six

They generally sell for a premium over similar but non-anniversary stamped revolvers..Maybe $50 - $65 more, depending on condition.

Numbers: Total number of these revolvers - 67,600 of ALL varieties. Total stainless versions - 3800

This includes all 3 barrel lengths.

I do recommend highly that you check for more information on these fine revolvers - they are worth the effort.
