38LC ?? Do you mean 38Long Colt?? Nothing Special about that.
As for the Ruger Security -Six, I have had 2. First was stolen in '83, bought another (4" Heavy Barrel) right after. A good solid, and very strong gun. But, in all honesty, I wouldn't pay over $250 for a VG example. The S&W 19, L Frames and N Frames (M27 and M28), have smoother triggers. The L Frame Smith's can be had for under $300, and are fine guns. If I had my choice of a VG Smith and a VG Ruger, I would take the Smith.
