Just bought the Wrangler. So right out of the box you have to get the goofy BPS trigger lock off, but they include the tool so not a big deal. Then you pull out the yellow safety check cylinder block by removing the cylinder rotation pin and taking out the cylinder. Reassemble and now you’re in business. I observed a great finish, comparatively light wheel gun that was perfectly Ruger done right everywhere. Great looking piece at a phenomenal bargain price. I think the silver finish model which is the 20034 looks great. See which one the BPS person brings out to you...if he/she shows you the 20041 then you are looking at the burnt bronze.
This does not have the ability to shoot .22 mag, no spare cylinder and aluminum frame not built for that higher power round. 22lr/s only.
And despite what the manual says, DON’T DRYFIRE IT!!!! It’s a Ruger, yes, but still a rimfire!
Again, this is an awesome bargain that is cheap to shoot, plinker approved and varmint feared. Go get one!

Hate to be another guy making claims before even firing the Wrangler.
What I can tell you is this little thing has stole my heart.
I bought the Wrangler and ordered a S&W 686 the same night.
Just received the 686 and I love it but just something about the little Wrangler.
I will not be passing either gun down,I hope to shoot the heck out of them till bullets tumble.
Single Six inerds in the Wrangler great starter gun.

Fun to shoot specially now with ammunition shortage but I enjoyed it and will continue to enjoy it in future.

I had to return this gun right after inspecting it in the store upon arrival. It had multiple cosmetic and casting imperfections. My expectations were for a better craftsmanship, but...

This firearm was purchased for a beginner revolver for My Wife and I to bring to the beginners gun range training course, and it was excellent... great price, value, accuracy.
Ruger, all the way!

These are fun guns to shoot. Pretty accurate to boot. They are however fairly rough operating especially the loading gate. Overall I'm pretty happy with them.

I've had this revolver now for a couple of months and have been to the range a few times, I thought I was just allowing the gun to swing to the left when firing so I had a friend shoot it,(he's been shooting handguns for much longer than myself), he had the exact same results as I did off to the left by about 4 to 5 inches, I guess I'll have to send it to the ruger repair center and have them look it over, not impressed. tried to download a pic but didn't work oh well. otherwise it's a decent little gun if I can get it more accurate it should be a good little blinker.

This gun feels great and is really fun to shoot, will eat any ammo you pit in it. Will enjoy putting many rounds down the tube of this one. For the bargain price and quality, it is an easy decision to purchase, you will not be disappointed

Bought this gun almost a year ago and have had so much fun! Looks like the cap gun Ihad as a kid! Have had zero issues with this firearm, but there was a couple flaws in the Cerakote finish, and I like my guns to look immaculate. Can't seem to keep the hammer clean, don't think its coated but seems to be stained from firing. Other than the couple issues I would buy again!

I bought this pistol a month ago and have yet to fire it. When I received it the silver finish on the hammer was stained brown as if packing oil had prevent the finish to adhere. The pistol is on its way to Ruger's Canadian depot for repair. What a hassle it is for a customer because either Ruger or Cabela's have obviously no quality control.

I wanted a .22LR pistol to teach people to shoot. I originally came into Cabela's hoping to buy a Ruger Single Six but was shown one of these by the sales associate. Since then, my friends and I have put roughly 1000 rounds through it over the last 12 months, and I have used it to teach five people how to shoot handguns. One of the great features of using a single-action revolver to teach people to shot is that it dramatically decreases the odds of accidental discharges. In addition to this Ruger's transfer bar safety, you do not need to worry about it being dropped on a loaded cylinder either. The notch sights are adequate, the Cerakote finish has held up well, and it has shot every type of ammunition I have put into it (one of the benefits of a .22lr revolver over a semi-auto). My only complaint with the revolver is that I was unable to pull the hammer back occasionally after closing the gate. This was caused by the cylinders not being correctly aligned after loading the gun. To correct this, you simply rotate the cylinders until they lock into the correct position, then pull the hammer back to shoot. This does not need to be done every shot, only occasionally for the first shot after loading. In addition to this, the gate on these are very tight and can be a little cumbersome to open, but this problem is mainly expressed by smaller shooters.
Overall, I do not think that any of the competition can beat the value this revolver provides. It has been phenomenal as a teaching tool and is something every shooter should add to their collection.

This is a fantastically fun revolver. Check over the frame carefully before buying as they do have small casting flaws. I bought a black one and it shoots steel at 50m hitting 90% of the time. So, yes, it's accurate. It is very well built, you can't beat the price, and in single action you would spend a fortune on ammo. It's also an excellent handgun for teaching new shooters because it has to be cocked for each shot, has little recoil, and functions every single time.

Lots of fun plinking away with this revolver. Easy to use. High quality as you would expect out of Ruger.

Got my Ruger Wrangler through the post office today. I cannot find a way to contact Cabelas to get the combination for the case lock provided by Cabelas. I will be cutting the lock off in the morning. I don't know about the product yet as I can't open the case. Cabelas has been great to deal with to this point, But this is very frustrating.

I purchased the Wrangler last month and it is a great plinking gun! Feels solid in the hand and the hammer is nicely checked for non-slip action. So far no problems. Totally recommend this revolver if you just want to have some fun at the range knocking off the spinners.

I bought the silver wrangler and a heritage rough rider because I couldn't choose between the two. Both are well worth the money. The wrangler has a more modern look. It's solid and obviously well made.

Love this gun it’s so nice I haven’t taken it to the range but can’t wait to, it has a great feel not too heavy and for being 22LR it won’t break the bank on ammo I think this will be a great addition to my collection
