The Ruger Wrangler is a brand new entrant in the single action rimfire market. Clearly designed to compete with the Heritage 22s in price. The Wrangler frame is aluminum, the grip frame is cast zinc alloy. The cylinder and barrel are both steel.
I'm pretty certain the cylinder is either aluminum or Zamak, with steel sleeves. I'm not sure about the barrel, but I thought that was also an [other than steel] alloy with a steel sleeve, as well.

[Edit] Ruger's web site says the barrel is hammer forged, so I guess it is all steel.
