Overview

The Ruger Service Six is a medium-frame double-action revolver chambered in .357 Magnum. It was designed as a rugged duty revolver for police use with a simpler, stronger construction than traditional designs. The Service Six features a solid frame with no side plate and an integrated ejector rod shroud. It uses a triple-locking cylinder mechanism for strength and reliability. The Service Six was Ruger's first serious entry into the law enforcement revolver market.
